Eye o’ the Dug - St Andrews, Sat 14 & Sun 15 Apr 2012
27 Apr 2012
Fantastic bill featuring Django Django, Malcolm Middleton and more
They may have quadrupled the size of their show, and conscripted beefcakes to man the doors, but the spirit of Fence chiefly prevailed at the inaugural Eye O’ The Dug – a musical hoopla which (kind of) filled a Homegame-shaped hole in the calendar (and…
The Sunshine Underground - King Tuts Wah Wah Hut, Glasgow, Mon 16 Apr
26 Apr 2012
Energetic indie-electro-rock from the Leeds trio
There's something different about The Sunshine Underground. Maybe it's their strange mix of electronica, grimy bass and echoing vocals. Maybe it's their somewhat unorthodox recording methods (they once put drummer Matthew Gwilt in a tent to get a 'big…

Auntie Flo - Future Rhythm Machine
18 Apr 2012
Highlife's Brian d’Souza delivers debut album of electronic music
(Huntleys + Palmer) He coyly describes this as not being a full-length debut album and points to the fact it predates his debut singles ‘Highlife’ and ‘Oh My Days’, but as one of Glasgow’s foremost new electronic producers Auntie Flo (the recorded alias…
Lone - Galaxy Garden
18 Apr 2012
UK producer's fourth album draws on Detroit techno, Chicago house and 90s rave
(R&S) Impressively, given Matt Cutler is still only a relatively tender aged 27-year-old, ‘Galaxy Garden’ is actually his fourth album recorded as Lone. However, in something of a musical departure from its hip hop, 80s boogie and rare groove-inspired…
