Where fantasy becomes reality, Confusion Is Sex invites freaks, weirdos, princesses, kings, slaves... CiS is an environment rather than just a music night. It's like walking into a David Lynch set where the weird is normal, giving people the chance to be something they're not.
This Friday 26th June 8PM SecretCDs @ The Tron Hunter Sq £5
Lypsync for a Lullaby "Edinburgh's answer to Sigur Ros" "invigorating mix of light and shade. . . Big, big music!"
Foundlings "A fine blend of pin-point almost spoken word vocals and tales of journeys along England’s psychotic autobahns - the spirit of the age." ". . .a kind of My Bloody Valentine for Motorway City times and One More Grain disciples." "Stone Roses for Neu heads!"
The Foundling Wheel "It's beepy, it's insane, it's shouty. It's angry but clever. It makes me want to drive a motorcycle the wrong way down the motorway. Naked." "braiding chromatic sheets of singeing electro-bending between frayed laces of gleaming melody." "Experimental mental music for robots to have sex to"

THE FOUNDLING WHEEL www.myspace.com/thefoundlingwheel The Foundling Wheel builds noise-saturated, melodic mountains of programmed polyrhythms and bitcrushed distortion . . .

VERSUS: three of Edinburgh’s finest noise-hungry racketeers are set to mash up and pound out a shrill of lug-piercing sonics at the Wee Red. Using a format that’s never before graced an Auld Reekie stage, the Bear Scotland triumvirate of The Foundling Wheel, Dead Boy Robotics and Enfant Bastard will set up concurrently and duel track to track, concocting scintillating aural juxtapositions that ignite the synapses with waves of neuron-transcending clatter.
The Foundling Wheel: builds noise-saturated, melody-laced mountains of programmed polyrhythms and bit-crushed distortion.
Enfant Bastard: circuit-bending drum-machine-addled anti-folk that can rarely be arsed to finish what it started.
