The Durutti Column is an iconic English music project founded in 1978 by Anthony H. Wilson and Alan Erasmus in Manchester, England. However, it quickly evolved into a solo endeavor led by Vini Reilly. The project was signed to Tony Wilson's renowned label Factory from 1978 to 1992.
With their unique blend of post-punk, new wave, and experimental sounds, The Durutti Column has left an indelible mark on the music scene. Led by the talented Vini Reilly, the project has consistently pushed boundaries and defied genre conventions throughout its extensive career.
From their early beginnings as a collaborative effort to becoming a solo venture under Reilly's guidance, The Durutti Column has consistently delivered innovative and captivating compositions that have garnered critical acclaim worldwide. With their distinct soundscapes and emotive melodies, they continue to captivate audiences with each release.

Some of the songs here are improvisations, reworkings of art-installation soundtracks, and snippets of lyrics and musical passages from the past. Gone are most of the drum machines and much of the sampling, and in their place is more focused and intense guitar strumming. Tempus Fugit is an emotional, vibrant musical masterstroke from an artist who seems to never release anything less.
