Lipsync for a Lullaby is a strings-driven 4-piece outfit based in Edinburgh, UK. The band is Atzi(voice, cello, guitar), Dave(Viola, voice), Balazs(Doublebass, voice), and Sam(Drums).
2008 has seen Lipsync headline packed events in Edinburgh such as Neue Liebe and Acoustic Cafe as well as playing regular gigs at venues including Henry's Cellar Bar. Lipsync's post-rock influenced sound has been described as "Edinburgh's answer to Sigur Ros" by local promoters.
In 2009 Lipsync followed classical harmonies, beats of slo-core, remains of post-rock, ashes of punk, and modernist intervals. In the end the band quickly morphed into all strings. Our songs are loud and long.
We are looking for more gigs to play. for booking please contact us at:: lipsync@hotmail.co.uk
"invigorating mix of light and shade. amongst the very best new bands in Edinburgh.
Big, big music!" ----James Igoe, Secret CDs
"Unusually detached from the concerns of trend, this band slips between genres in a way that calls for re-invention. At times cyberclassical, at others, pararock, this industrialfolk music gives the pigeonholers a smile and a nightingale instead." ----tentracks.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.
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 overcast day, but with just that glimmer of sunshine peeking from the clouds. "Almost Tomorrow" wears its heart on its sleeve.
A
4 track EP, titled Call Signs, it provides the perfect introduction to
the band prior to the release of their debut album, Grappling Hooks, in
early 2010.

Noises Like Ashes SINGLE RELEASE THIS FRIDAY @ Confusion is Sex - 11pm The Bongo Club
"Like a cracked toy from the 80’s being played to death with a hybrid of Ian Curtis & Mark E Smith fronting . . ." - Subba-Cultcha
CONFUSION IS SEX
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.
