About Me

Notorious four piece collective from North London, playing a unique genre-defying blend of dub, funk and psychedelic rock that is certain to mash your potatoes. We've attracted an enthusiastic following, gigging extensively at London venues and festivals around the UK. Our influences are as diverse as our music and we take in elements of reggae, jazz, funk and drum 'n' bass, dishing it all up with a contemporary sprinkle of originality.We're not afraid to shoot musical arrows of sound from our giant quiver and have created an extensive aural sketch book in our digital studio, where we spend many an hour flicking the cross faders and mashing it up. Our organic music continues to evolve...Other credentials: Appeared on a compilation CD Cult themes of the 1970s with unique version of Space 1999 theme tune. Played showcase gigs in Soho, London for album launch with such cult luminaries as the no.1 60s act The Honeycombs. 'The Tracks' (FREE download on myspace and www.intomusic.co.uk/ambassadorsofom) Recently received airplay on Xfm in the Unsigned slot on Sarah Darlings evening show. Currently mastering our debut unsigned album 'waiting for a sequel' (available on tunetribe.com/ambassadorsofom).
