Press Release :
Late-night ambient loungecore from UK band Orgatronics, brainchild of producer duo Sam Bell and Rich Arthurs. Fusing traditional flamenco and latin instruments and techniques with a pop sensibility, the duo have created a truly unique musical creation. Add to this the dreamy vocals of ex-classical star Emily Levy, squidgey Moog keyboards from Morcheeba's Dan Goldman, sublime jazz trumpet from the award-winning Malcolm Strachan, and the result is the debut album Moonfruit.

"Think Manu Chao starting a fight with the Gotan Project cheered on by Air and Tito Puente."
Lubi Jovaovic (Straight No Chaser)

"Sublime album. An incredible version of Footprints. A highly musical outing. 10/10"
Rainer Trüby (Compost Records)

"Dreamy arrangements. All the solos are very assured, confident and soulful but Dan Goldman's work on this takes it into orbit."
Simon Hodge (BBC Radio Scotland)

Speech Debelle - Freedom Of Speech
(CD/LP/Digital) Big Dada Recordings BD193, 2012-02-06

Two years since winning the 2009 Mercury Music Prize for her debut album, Speech Therapy, and having ridden a rollercoaster through life since then, Speech Debelle is ready to drop her second collection of music. Entitled Freedom of Speech, the album sees Speech turning from introspection to stand up, face and engage with the world around her, spitting confident themes of revolution and love. A first taste of the album came in the aftermath of this summer's riots, when Speech reacted immediately, leaking the track Blaze Up A Fire, (also featuring Roots ManuvaRealism), a track about political revolution written months before. Now the build-up begins to the release of Freedom of Speech in early February 2012 with the free download of the track Studio Backpack Rap. From political to musical revolution, Speech describes the track as being "all about virtual instrumentation and an ode to KwesSpeech Therapy, while showcasing just one aspect of her remarkable new album.
