Unpredictable tune-botherers since 2001. Hailing from Edinburgh, The Ruffness promise to release their first album this summer. They have influences, and have been described as a band who play music; they're audio perverts, they know what a breakbeat looks like when it's dressed as your sister, they're collectors of things so wrong yet so right, tunes for the unintended, groove monks, audio freaks, beat cops, wrong horns, squelchy synths, interrupted track markers, mixing the old and unholy with the new and shiny, dealing in only the very healthiest of disrespect. Hmmm?
wow. you guys have been my musical heroes for ages. if i didn't have the CD i might belive you were just a dream. can i somehow here more of you in bulk?
Hear ye, hear ye, pirate. After many moons, the Big Hand debut album is finally waiting eagerly in the wings and is set to dazzle upon the main stage of life! Yes, its set for release, and its gonna blow your socks off. So............... ...........to celebrate this wonderful occasion, get your dancing shoes on, and please grace us with your presence at the Bongo Club at 7pm on Friday 8th Feb, for a superspecial limited edition launch gig (and get your hands on a sparkling new copy before the less fortunate outside our good city walls)! Featuring of course ourselves, plus the incredible Bombskare, and many guest musicians to help spice up the party. Get yourselves the remedy for the winter blues, grab your friends by the hand and lead them in the ways of Zorbic rightousness, and come on down for a dazzling night to remember...
Alright guys. I got my roland cube rigged through my setup right now and just played panic through it. Sounds brilliant. I think its because its live, the amp inhances that live sound , awesome stuff.
Once described, "as political as Noam Chomsky, as dirty as 2 Live Crew and as emotionally fragile as a young girl's diary entry", Canadian post-rap sensation Bleubird makes a rare UK appearance as part of his ongoing European tour, bringing with him a provocative spectacle of humour and social commentary, smashed together into a sloppy package of finesse and undeniable energy.
Support comes in the shape of Newcastle based, indie-hop electro-folksters, Dogtanion and local free-ambient outer-limit crunk heroes, Sileni.
Bleubird Dogtanion & Sileni Cabaret Voltaire Sunday 20th January 7pm £8 on door £6 in advance
