[Dizzy Storm]

for those of you who are not aware, there's a great music and visual art event happening on the Castlegate, Aberdeen on sat march 26th (thats a week on sat!!) AND ITS FREE!!!

SHIFT brought to you by Aberdeen City Centre Partnership, Drakes Productions, Peacock Visual Arts & Interesting Music Promotions.....

here's the details...


65daysofstatic 8.15pm-9pm
**FIRST EVER SCOTTISH SHOW**
With loads of airplay by Peel, Lamacq and even Zane Lowe their debut album 'The Fall Of Math' is also getting excellent reviews in ORGAN, Kerrang! The Wire, Rock Sound, and a host of other mags. They have been described as Squarepusher meets Mogwai, or the Aphex Twin with guitar, but that doesn't do their innovative (some say revolutionary) sound full justice. Thier live shows are viciously euphoric, frenetic, overwhelming, bordering on chaos and really, really loud!
'A soundtrack to a new dimension.....'

Sound Development Agency 7pm-7.30pm
SDA bring their filthy, hardcore Manchester funk to the night. it's all deeply funky, with groovy, shake-yer-money-maker bass and guitar lines and utterly unintelligible but soulful and fuck-it-the-man's-clearly-off-on-one vocals!
'deranged funk that will bring you back to earth with a bump... '

DRAT 6pm-6.30pm
Drat’s songs are hard to forget, staying with you when you’re walking down the street, and particularly when you’re trying to get to sleep at night. Simple melodic guitar lines, looped by lo-fi gems and delicate vocals, laced with dirty keyboards and sharp lyrics, comprising a mellow undercurrent as well as having teeth: not unlike a crocodile on morphine...

THE MARCIA BLAINE SCHOOL FOR GIRLS 5pm-5.30pm
Their sound has been described as slightly peculiar and melancholy, and their tracks can vary from dark beats to experimental soundscapes, light atmospherics and to more melodic numbers.

SALON BORIS 4pm-4.30pm
think of a dirty sleazier human league for this decade, think of Mark E Smith from the Fall, think of the fattest driven analogue bass this side of New Order, think of the dirtiest, catchiest, electro pop you can dance to..

THE NUCLEOTIDES 3pm-3.30pm
instrumental surf rock band in the vein of Dick Dale....accompanied by the Disembodied Living Brain of Doctor Donovan, an actual brain that resides in an oxygenated tank on stage and who, it is rumored, communicates telepathically with audience members...!

THE KITCHEN CYNICS 2pm-2.30pm
the man, the legend....quirky and unique local singer songwriter with an exceptional pedigree...scotlands greatest exponent of great-auntie folk!

I thought it was weird that this band were promoted as a 'Post Rock' band...and they aren't actually post rock at all...

Still nae bad though...might as well pop along as it is a freebie...
