Everyone Does It
..

Sounds Like'Dan Sheen is a (mere) 17 year old from Nottingham who is already showing some good potential. He has a musical foot in both the trippy rock and electronica camps. Despite Dan's best attempts to describe his own music you should really try it for yourself because I don't think even he really knows what he's got. There's controlled feedback of a guitar, drum machines, sequences a semi-sung, slightly ethereal/trippy backing and vocal line. The end result is a somewhat of a home-made sounding electro/ambient vibe, but he clearly already has a good ear and a sharp mind for structuring music.' - The Music Review

Everyone Does It - Machine-driven, post-punk sounding stuff, which is pretty much just the ticket at the mo, in terms of market appeal. It's fuckin' great. 8/10 - The Living Atheist

BBC Introducing with Tom Robinson on 6 music

'What a great proposition, You Know It's Wrong Cus Everyone Does It' - Tom Robinson 6Music

'Some good stuff in there, definitely a nice respite at work! keep it up fella' - Alex (Shadowplay Fanzine)

'You've got something really good going on here,keep going! im well impressed! much love-jagz :-)' Jagz Kooner (Produced - Primal Scream, Prodigy, Reverend and the Makers)

Something fuzzy & urgent to get you out of bed this morning. For a 17 year old lad from the Midlands, Dan Sheen has a frighteningly brilliant grasp on how to go about writing & producing DIY electro-psychedelic anthems. “Everyone Does It” is an unholy juggernaut of a song, the sound of someone with a blowtorch in a squall of electric guitar feedback & hypercatchy vocal hooks. The lit fuse snakes and burns through sounds reminiscent of bands like The Jesus & Mary Chain and Spiritualized, but with a post-modern punk fuzz to keep it sounding interesting. Pick a scene of debauchery and “bang” - here’s your new soundtrack. If musical review ratings went up to 11, this would probably be a 12. - Smally (The Daydream Generation)

   About Circuitbreaker
Circuit Breaker is Dan Sheen, a 17 year old producer from Nottinghamshire. Dan began producing just over a year ago in an effort to merge melody, feedback and synthesizers. The Circuit Breaker sound fluctuates between blissed out shoegaze grooves to hard hitting techno punk and has been compared to Massive Attack, Primal Scream and Spiritualized. All his tracks are written and recorded in his bedroom studio, often with a little help from a few mates. Dan has also contributed songs to the 3am Association, a Trip Hop collective from Nottingham centered around Adrian Kelly.

Kyle McColl Music





Aug 4 2008 5:44 PM

Thanks Dan :)

To be honest, I think I'm suffering from the "hate your own voice" syndrome lol, I think I sound rubbish in it.

Hopefully when my recording system gets repaired (AGAIN! lol) I'll be able to do some more demos. I doubt I'm gonna be able to make very good quality songs with this PC but well...wait and see :D

Btw, heard Don't You Love Me, it sounds very good, and very experimental :D
James

Barcelona Sky music & lyrics ... copyright

Danny D'Arcy (2007)



You never felt so good,

I hope you never change

Let your hair down, keep your hair long

We were lost, we were happy

In the middle of July

Stretched out in the grass

Under a Barcelona sky



With the sound of breathing traffic

And the sun kissing our face

Our whole life seemed to fall into place...

'Cos we were lost we were happy

In the middle of July

Stretched out in the grass

Under a Barcelona sky



Oh! I love you more than love

Could love itself

Headlights on my horizon

Doctor says sunshine is good for my health

I think it helps



Look at the two of us

It's like its meant to be

Birds flying high , birds in a V

And we are lost and we are happy

In the middle of July

Stretched out in the grass,

Under a Barcelona sky



Oh! I love you more than love

Could love itself

Headlights on my horizon

Doctor says sunshine is good for my health

I think it helps



You never felt so good

I hope you never change

Let your hair down, keep your hair long

We were lost but we were happy

In the middle of July

Stretched out in the grass,

Under a Barcelona sky



I'm as happy as two old people dancing,

I could break down and cry

There's just me and you

And a Barcelona sky



Moonlight..... Sunlight..... All of our lives.....
