Sounds Like"It borders on the celestial"- DiScover Album of the Month, drownedinsound.com

"You think of failing white striplights, of the artificial, greenish glow of empty factories"-Plan B Magazine

"Bubbling, analogue bubble-bath synths; resonating passages of lo-fidelity; symphonic splendour; prog-rock song titles. Ladies and gentlemen, we are floating in space. Welcome to the world of the Keyboard Choir."-Stool Pigeon

"For moments when you want to take a gentle stroll in space and watch the comets zoom by, Keyboard Choir are definitely your best guides."-thisisfakediy.co.uk

"a piece of challenging, different and overwhelmingly beautiful electronica, with an industrial edge - this is a fine body of work from a truly unique combo."-subba-culture.com

"Keyboard Choir have all the makings of being your euphoric end of night dance companions on warm summer evenings, shuffling about on damp grass, beer in hand, as the sun goes down."-contactmusic.com

"Thank the maker. Something vaguely original is happening in music today."-smashmusic.co.uk

"Literal. Electrified up to the eyeballs. Robotical. Illusive, hard to pin down dreams rise from conscious digital synth"-nothingbutgreenlights blog

"awesome hypnotic sound sculptures"-diskant.net

"All electronic sextet using synths, samplers and laptops to recreate The Art Of Landscape as if it were reshown by Channel 4 on Jupiter"-Sweepingthenation

"this six man keyboard choir - complete with conductor - make genuinely moving live electronic music"-the dawn chorus

"there is something surprising and for that matter definitively significant going on underneath their compositions"-deathtomusic.blogspot.com

"this is a beautiful and endearing album that proves that when you take away all the visual elements of their live performance, the music is still what makes them truly special."-musicomh.com

"fans of this genre will be suitably impressed"-new-noise.net

Keyboard Choir - 'Bugs'

BAND: keyboardchoir AT hotmail DOT com
PRESS: john AT brainloverecords DOT com

Keyboard Choir is the collective name for Ady, Alex, Guy, James, Seb and Woody, six musicians who make music with the turbulence and dynamics of traditional 'ensemble' performances from purely electronic sound sources and 'found sound'. Having formed in late 2004, we played shows around the south of England, including headline shows in Oxford, Cambridge and London alongside support slots with Coldcut, Metronomy, The Egg, Fuck Buttons and Frank Turner amongst others. We have also appeared twice at Truck Festival in Steventon, Oxfordshire. If you were there and saw a band full of keyboard players being attacked by a crew of aggressive looking cardboard robots, then you saw us.

When we started we toyed with the idea of being a loose, random collective with people coming and going but it didn't work, it was too loose and random. We got our act together and in late 2006/early 2007 we began recording what was to become our debut album, 'Mizen Head to Gascanane Sound', put to tape (or in our case, hard disk) in South-western Ireland, and named after the area. The album was released on Brainlove Records in 2008.



The Debut Album - Out Now. Order from Amazon / Play / Norman Records / Borders
Out Now digitally at eMusic / iTunes Listen: last.fm / MySpace
