Greetings Traveller.

My name is Keir....


OUT NOW!!! (on Benbecula Records) :
Photobucket
"Whilst We Try" sees highlander Keir MacCulloch return to the shores of Benbecula for a second outing. This trip proves to be a much more focused and dancefloor-friendly affair. From the lush guitar-laden opener "Sergio Leone", to the orchestral synth fusion of "Duty Paid", the EP merges organic melodies with super slick production.
With great response from homeland and European crowds, the EP proves to be ideal for both headphones and the club.

"THE BRIDGE OF HESITATION" SOLD OUT!!



I still have perhaps about 5 copies left sitting in my laptop case: £5 is the asking price, but the very last one is going for £10,500 (o.n.o)

The download EP, with 4 album tracks and two bonus tracks which are not featured on the album can still be legally download from the likes of bleep, itunes, napster etc ...



Some nice words:

"...Get this album, its like getting on a rollercoaster of électronica breaks and chiseled, alternating cavalcades, frenetic and ambient breaks....An impressive range of flavors....My album of the fall, certainly. "
---(dMute)

" Are you still doing your Pocahontas music?"
---A conversation with Euan "Tbone" Taylor

"Melodic delicate sounds, transformed into a serious of glitch and breaks possessing as much energy as emotion, this is a chap already making a name for himself from Inverness to Edinburgh and now Glasgow. Go see him."

Hope you enjoy. x

[S27-026] Nonima & theAudiologist - Almost Tomorrow
(Glitch, Ambient, Downtempo, IDM)

..
Click image to go to download page

Almost Tomorrow is the third full length collaboration album from Section 27 Netlabel founders Tam Ferrans and Andrew Paterson, under their Nonima & theAudiologist guise. This time around the sound is more melodic, and has a definite feeling of a complete and more mature sound than heard on the previous LP's "Dystopian Battle Hymns" and "Ceremony After Amputation". If you are familiar with their individual projects you may even be in for a slight surprise, as the tracks are not as beat driven like before, but are more atmospheric and sound, well... "bigger". In its 75 minutes, Almost Tomorrow takes you on a trip from the digital rain-soaked cavernous scraping in "Thoughtograph", the ethereal beat jittering of "The Colour of Rain", intercepted transmissions from unknown places in "Com-Intercept", "Ganzfeld"s huge yet strangely insect-like beats until everything you knew comes crashing around you in "Almost Tomorrow". Burning pianos, glitched out soundscapes and intricately programmed beatplay, this may well be their best work to date. Consider it the soundtrack to a rainy overcastday, but with just that glimmer of sunshine peeking from the clouds. "Almost Tomorrow" wears its heart on its sleeve.

But the DS is great, why spend less time on it? I love that Elektroplankton game... could mong out on that for hours. Unless you want a SNES Mario Kart face off, i accept the challenge, lol.

Cheers for the feedback on Mantra bud, the vocal was a track by theAudiologist and reversed... i thought he sounded like a monk or something so used it. Rumble tastic. ;)

S27 seems to be doing some strangely great things lately in terms of what we have coming out soon, although Ive got into a situation where I have everything upto [S27-033] planned yet we just put out [S27-025]... And just got Pinklogik on board as well which I never would have expected.

Oh aye, looking forward to hearing Capitals on the road whenever that happens too. Can imagine that to be quite a gig.

Not too shabby mate, I am arranging an electronica night in Kilmarnock on 13th November, got theAudiologist, Sonal, Swin Deorin and myself on there. Hopefully all goes to plan.... :) Awaiting my copy of "Whilst We Try" from Benbecula, been itching to hear some new stuff from you.

Just having fun exploring London. Went to RDJ's gig the other night, that was exciting. I was hoping to witness your chops at some point during my stay, but I guess that will have to wait for another time.
