OUT NOW!!! (on Benbecula Records) :
"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.
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. "

"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.

Music Video for "The Mast" by Sean Pruen (www.seanographic.co.uk)
Adviruz is the artist psedonym of Istanbul’s Pinar Gurcan, whose growing passion for sound is translated through her music. Since an early age, she has been listening and mimicking opera singers, writing melodies, songs and poems in which she spoke her mind and reflected her soul. All of which are evident on "Nightly Sounds", an 8 track album which is the equivilent of having a glimpse into a diary, learning of love lost, gained, a snapshot of the human condition from which we can all draw experience... All of these things are developed musically into minimalistic glitch, noise, idm, experimental music and microsounds, its influences reminiscent of work by artists like Tujiko Noriko, Mira Calix, Plaid and Björk.
Adviruz and Section 27 present "Nightly Sounds", an intricately woven and rewarding musical tapestry. Available now for free download.
hah, yeah my grandparents still live there, all about walker and fraser park for me man, jumpers for goalposts :-) have relatives out in ardersier too,
i still head up there now and then to cath up with them all.
To celebrate our first 27 releases on Section 27 Netlabel, we proudly present to you "Sectioned", a compilation of 27 tracks, amounting to 2 hours across two discs of twisted electronic beats, discordant melodies, haunting passages, broken ambience, bending senses of time and space, microscopic glitches, pounding bass frequencies, sounds between sounds, the human voice and the audible sensation of music dissolving in acid. This is the sound of your mind's eye. This is the sound of the Sectioned... Strap yourself in and enjoy the experience.
Also features a 75 minute bonus disc "Sectioned : Nonimxs", including 9 remixes of selected Section 27 artists by Nonima and 2 original tracks created by Silent Snow and Nina Kardec using existing Nonima tracks.

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.
:) hope you can still make the wee red show , its been moved to the 4th and is now with noiserv and the kays lavelle :) hehehe hopfeully catch up with you soon man either way xox
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.
Hey mate, sorry we sent you the same message twice about V&B, our comments have been going a bit mental and not sending, but by the look of it they have been going after all. DOH! Hope all's well with you man.
