The idea behind Whelan’s Ones To Watch festival strikes me as being so flamboyantly clever. The value is big (acts you know and acts you don’t, all working hard to be remembered) and the cost is low (€5 or €10).

Fabrice Lig’s effort is passable neo-Detroit, the pleasing, phased percussion not combining well with an odd shredded FX patch and hyperactive low-end. Regis and Female’s electro-tech effort ‘C Chaos’ is much better: reminiscent of ‘Polynomial C’, the Aphex-style melodies are the perfect foil to the razor-sharp, multi-layered beats and throbbing kick.

This charity record, presided over by Belle and Sebastian, is a bit patchy but sure to get everyone in the car singing along.
2006-11-10 - REVIEW
Four tracks from the Starbaby vaults from Fabrice Lig, Morgan Giest and John Tejada that sound like they were made after listening to some Dan Curtin records.
2006-08-09 - REVIEW
Four stylish cuts on this label debut. All are quality takes on ze minimal sound, but Mark Ashken’s ‘Part Time Isolation’ stands out. There are bumpin’ drums, oddball FX and a nutty, chopped applause sample-cum-breakdown that freaks the floor.
2005-12-16 - REVIEW
Pick of the bunch here is label boss David Ekenback’s ‘Breakdance’ – buzzing tech drums, tribal percussion, Rachmad-esque stabs, musical key changes, a fierce bass and proper bazzin’ breakdowns, make this a choon.

The songwriter’s oldest friends – Don Henley, Ry Cooder, David Lindley and Jackson Browne – occasionally seem hamstrung by too much respect for the material, although Bob Dylan does essay a decent ‘Mutineer’, and you can hear Bruce Springsteen’s mouth water as he gets his chops around the East Texas testament of ‘My Ride’s Here’.

While part two was never going to be as eventful, there is more than enough on offer to justify its existence – SP overlord Etienne De Cercy and Alex Gopher’s ‘Overnet’ is a thrilling, punk/funk meets acid house stormer, ‘Fasttrack’ updates Kraftwerk for 2004 while ‘Soulseek’’s is a intruiging blend of synths and beats.
2004-10-13 - REVIEW
Two brilliant dub versions of recent Soma offerings – Steve Bug’s dark, acidic mix of Funk d’Void benefits from the lack of vocals, while Alex Smoke’s mix of Envoy’s ‘Move On’ is even better.
2004-10-12 - REVIEW
Cracking 4-tracker from this new Belfast label – our favourites are Scoper and Bubba’s hip electro-funker and New Aluminists and Phil Kieran’s techy ‘Clinton Bleeps’. Excellent.

Another instalment in this highly successful monthly songwriters’ showcase, this was the first to be held in a brand new facility at the Holiday Inn.
