A circus-cast of additional collaborators, an eccentric entourage of sorts, tends to come and go as needed, or as they please. This is the life and dirt of the city.
Influences: The beautiful juxaposition of the pretty and the dirty, where both are intrinsically necesary for the other to exist.
Metro-Grime, in all its facets.
The glittery mud of urban life.
The sorts of cities that this sort of thing makes sense in.
Sounds Like: We sound like our city. We sound like the essence of Metro-Grime. We sound cocky, sexy, dirty...
We sound like something that will make you dance.
Sometimes avant-garde-ish and expirimental, sometimes just noisy, almost always strange. Never terribly listenable.
A departure. A vast and loud departure.
