NMC Profound Sound Award presents
THE VINYLS + Thomas McConnell

December 4th, 2013

“Conjured beneath the (less-than-holy) veil of seaside charm that is Brighton town, The Vinyls take pride in the razor-sharp tact, infectious dancing and epic chorus lines that have brought them an incredible response in over 100 gigs in the South since 2011.
With a sound that could best be described as knotting together a young Elvis Costello with the likes of Pulp and having a slice of Beach Boys thrown in for good measure, they compliment their songs with an exceptionally memorable live set that will either have you humming along or stamping your feet to each and every beat.”

DJ PAYPAL (LuckyMe)
Coalition x £5 Shake

December 1st, 2013

paypal-banner

LuckyMe pal Paypal chops and screws any damn thing into his fine blend of Breakneck breaks, disco juke, juggling jungle, and r‘n’bass.

He’s inspired by good deodorant, dancing, crying kawaii Japanese girls, and fireworks exploding out of trashcans on the 4th of July. Aren’t we all?

$5 Shake break out of their city caff residency to bring us a full on club show in assoc with Coalition.

notsosilent : SESSION VICTIM

November 29th, 2013

1380773_560800120660654_1194907003_n

Session Victim is Hauke Freer and Matthias Reiling; self-titled pinball playing, breakfast eating head bangers from Berlin and Hamburg. Oh, and their also really really good DJ’s. You’d struggle to find another artist with such a visceral connection to the soul and mind blowing groove they craft out throughout their set, live or DJ.

With a catalogue of work out on Wolf Music, Permanent Vacation and a sublime debut LP that dropped on Delusions of Grandeur you can already gauge the reasons behind such love and respect for the two crate digging aficionados and we get the pleasure of standing back and watching Hauke and Matthias go to town on our wee party for the duration 🙂

TOM McCONNELL, Blueswater, New Ancestors, Daniel & The Lion

November 28th, 2013

Despite what his passport might tell you, an Edinburgh show is something of a homecoming for Irish soulster Tom McConnell. His long-awaited debut EP ‘Scraps’ gets a special Edinburgh launch with a handpicked bill of great musical guests.

Described as “a burgeoning talent who is undoubtedly one to watch” by Secret CD’s and praised for his “infectious, masterful songwriting with a judicious taste of loop pedal shenanigans” by Acoustic Edinburgh, Tom McConnell’s act is not one to be missed.

http://tommcconnell.bandcamp.com/album/scraps

The bill includes a smorgasbord of talent, with performances from:

Blueswater – http://theblueswater.bandcamp.com/
New Ancestors – https://www.facebook.com/newancestors
Daniel & The Lion – http://danielandthelion.bandcamp.com/

DAUGHN GIBSON, Brokeback

November 26th, 2013

A heady mix of baritone voice, pedal steel, electronics and dive bar creep makes this unlike any previous Sub Pop release.
