Om Bongo & Broken Robot present Tribal Circuitry

Very excited now about the Broken Robot and Om Bongo launch night on Bank Holiday Friday 22 April.

Founded by Dom Smart aka. Neurodriver (formerly Far Too Loud), Broken Robot and their stable haven't just consistently pushed the boundaries of psychedelic breaks and tech funk for the last 4 years, they wrote the fucking blueprints. This is their first label party and just look at that Jaw dropping line-up!

Om Bongo also launch their label with a debut release from Whatchamacallit, host leg-ends ZubZub, a brilliant reggae band, Scubaroots, an exclusive downtemposet from Hedflux and some short fat man twiddling knobs alongside label-boss Ade and the hard working Robin Triskele.

Check out the preview sets and blurb below. This is going to be EPIC!

Tickets are only 10 squid -> http://www.wegottickets.com/event/111997

Neurodriver, Om Bongo & Wotchamacallit?

Rae from the Wobbly Squadron is off to India for the winter, so we all had a bon voyage knees up last night. As you'd expect round Rae and Ade Om Bongo's Guildford house (which now houses Dan Agent Smith and Dom Neurodriver too) there was a healthy percentage of music geeks present (Chris IP Cress and Dennis Subsource making up the numbers).

Dom's just released a cracking new tune on his Broken Robot label, Snakecharmer, a classic twister of a psy-breaks monster. I'd thoroughly recommend the Broken Eye remix as well, there's some definite Far Too Loud influence going on there (whether it's actually Dom or Oli under another alias a totally forgot to ask).

Dom also showed us this video of himself playing the awesome Root Society stage at Burning Man this year. It looks mind-blowing and he swears it's the best stage he's ever played on. I can't embed the video but click through for the Facebook page:

Now's also the time for the first plug of Ade's next night, the Om Bongo Christmas Party. If you like anywhere near Guildford come on down on Christmas Eve for some proper heavy partying with some of the best DJs and live acts in the UK including Slackbaba, Ade, Dan and Musical Man favourite Mary Miss Fairy!

One of the two acts I hadn't seen until last week is Wotchamacallit? whose live downtempalisms were sounding pretty lush on the pub system. There's whisperings of a first release on the way soon.
