chilli Posted October 20, 2006 Report Share Posted October 20, 2006 interesting music in conjunction with SOUND festival are simply thrilledto announce three events that will tickle the pallette & refresh themundane.see what we do, join our mail out, get soundscapes here:- http://www.myspace.com/interestingmusicIsan (Morr) + Tomcats In TokyoFriday 3rd NovDoors 8pmEntry 6, Students with ID 4Peacock Visual Arts,21 Castle Street. Aberdeen (01224) 639539Isan Antony Ryan and Robin Saville have been releasing music as Isan since 1996.Having recorded in the past for various labels (and whilst still enjoyingthe occasional dalliance) they now consider morr music<http://www.morrmusic.com/> to be their spiritual home.Now based in Southend and Wiltshire respectively, Robin and Antony workseparately from each other most of the time, communicating via post andinternet. Periodically notes are compared and directions noted, the endresult is a hopefully coherent body of work for which the pair considerthemselves jointly responsible.The Isan live experience has been in existence for a few years now.Seemingly based around a large tangle of wires and an ever-growingcollection of lucky cats, Isan can occasionally be seen squinting into thelights around the uk and further afield.In addition to maintaining his half of the Isan bargain, robin also releasestunes by some of his favourite artists on his own label, arable recordshttp://www.arable.net/Isan use and endorse tea.http://www.isan.co.ukTomcats In Tokyo Tomcats In Tokyo is the alias of French electronica artist Abrice Rey.He has recorded music for such respected labels asStatic Caravan, Awkward Silence, U-Cover and Ai Records.http://www.myspace.com/tomcatsintokyo Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

chilli Posted November 1, 2006 Author Report Share Posted November 1, 2006 This is how our friends in Glasgow are advertising this excellent double bill(only two Scottish dates)excellent its our great pleasure to welcome one of the most unique and original duos in modern electronic music - the wonderful isan - back to miso. theyll be joined by one of our favourite bands, the legendary tomcats in tokyo for their debut scottish show. weve been trying to set this up for ages. its going to be absolutely magic! tickets are on sale now! from minimalism to melody and back again, isan have been on a musical journey since a chance meeting brought together robin saville and antony ryan in leicester in 1996. once they'd discovered their shared love for electronic music and decided to work together, not much has been discussed. isan prefer to allow their sound to develop on its own, allowing their intuitive grasp of melody and the manipulation of sound to dictate their direction. their wonderful new album, plans drawn in pencil is now available on the brilliant morr music home to other great artists such as mum, ms.john soda, lali puna, tarwater and solvent. in addition to maintaining his half of the isan bargain, robin also releases tunes by some of his favourite artists on his own label arable records.weve been after the tomcats ever since hearing their debut on static caravan a few years back. since then, theyve been everywhere from a.i. to kitty-yo with their distinctive and beautiful sound. have a listen to the tracks below or on the bands own myspace pages for an idea of what to expect. this is definitely one for fans of morr, a.i. or toytronic. myspace.com/tomcatsintokyo myspace.com/isanmusic Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
