Notes:
Summer 2004 young Gouda gospelband ‘Fluxx’ went through some changes, after the
vocalist and drummer left. Gerard, Rex and his brother Quintin recruited Tim
and Jan-Jaap first and started performing from september 2004 on. Missing
something, they added Tabitha, whom Gerard and Tim knew from shortlived
schoolband ‘Golden Values’. Initial gigs were done as ‘Fluxx’, but soon after
they decided to change their name to ‘Higher Purpose’. They created their own
style, by abandonning the ‘traditional’ music common in the Gospel/Praise scene
and writing more contemporary, Alternative influenced music. They performed
regularly in ‘Paulus Church’ in Gouda, both solo and supporting a choir and all
over the country during Praise-sermons and youth-evenings.
This demo was recorded april 2005 in a 4 hour session by
a student studio engineering in what is now ‘Codarts’ conservatory in
Rotterdam. Dissatisfied with the not too sparkling performance and slightly
poor mix, they decided not to issue the demo, which consisted of self penned
‘Another Day’ and ‘DC Talk’-cover ‘In The Light’.
