FLIGHT FACILITIES – TAKING FLIGHT (Electro – Australia)
The identity of the artists behind Flight Facilities remains mysterious… Rumour has it that this project is the brainchild of Jimmy 2 Sox and (possibly) U-Go-B, two Sydneysiders affiliated with Australian electro labels Bang Gang 12 inches and Modular Recordings.
Their page on LastFM says they met at a Holy Ghost! DJ set in New York and immediately hit it off, sharing loves in music, literature and movies. Plans to work together were formed then but didn’t really take off until the following year, when they started releasing remixes for a bunch of great artists such as The C90s, Bag Raiders, The Lowbrows, Sneaky Sound System, Toecutter and James Curd.
They are just about to release a fantastic single, “Crave You”, that will be out in a couple of months (get it HERE). In the meantime, you can check it out just below.
They are also planning to release an album called Taking Flight some time in 2010. For more info and updates visit Flight Facilities on MySpace. Buy the music on

flight facilities is jimmy2sox and jordan lightyear from sydney.
close but not close enough
remixes are going to be incredible
release “Crave You” now!! please?
Jordan Lightyear is not part of Flight Facilities.
Jordan Light Year is from Light Year. Strange how that works huh?
jimmy 2 sox isn’t involved with flight facilities either…from memory, its two mysterious men of the sky.
Jimmy2sox was part of To Shades with Jordan. They stopped working under that name. Now Jimmy2sox is just Jimmy2sox – hence there being a Jimmy2sox & Jordan Light Year Remix on the Toecutter release. Flight Facilities are also on that release. Not him.
Flight Facilities is U-GO-B and Jimmy2sox I think
This is amazing.
it turns out that, according to a semi-official email I just received, neither Jimmy2sox, nor Jordan Lightyear take part in Flight Facilities.. so who’s behind FF? the mystery remains unsolved…
Well then why does an official Future Entertainment page list Flight Facilities as Jimmy and U-Go-B?

They wouldn’t just make that shit up?
Coz Flight Facilities were going to do it and then didn’t. Jimmy2sox & U-Go-B filled it? Was a misunderstanding in the artwork..
I witnessed Flight Facilities Debut DJ Set – I can visually confirm that it was Jimmy2sox and U-Go-B (mostly his doing).
Everybody knows it’s really a massive joke courtesy of Nick Littlemore.
now you’re just pouring more oil on the fire, trying to get people even more confused ))
Flight Facilities = u-go-b + jimmy 2 sox
