About Me

Acoustic Cuts Experiment. A collective of musicians with four core members; Looping, layering and manipulating live acoustic breaks and incorporating intricate production with a penchant for jumping about a lot and getting every last bugger dancing!cello, guitars, human beatbox, djembe and percussion, all mixed up in Ableton live and spat out with organic drum'n'bass, breakbeat and bounce-about latin/world knees up joy!Started several years ago by accident, in a bedroom, rather like a oversized lovechild; ACeX swelled, hatched and grew. We had our clumsy toddler stage- all limbs, a snotty nose and no direction....but lo, we have burgeoned!of late have been working with some damn wonderful people. Ayesha Mendam from the Barcelona based "Misnoma" and Maxwell Wright from the amazing "Ojos De Brujo"...check the track "BORN"...we played the Shambala festival in sunny Devon (my hood...Big up all you lovable hippies in Totnes!).We have been playing gigs about London this last year or so. 333 club and Herbal in Hoxton to name a few.LATEST: Acoustic Cuts' are in the process of producing an Album with Appl Juic, A poet and MC. We are also working on an animation and continuing to write new material. The live set has been cancelled for the meantime, but who knows what these long winters evenings could inspire!Drop us a line and let me know what you all think of our tunes!thank yawl Tom + Finn xx
