London indie outfit This Is The Deep make wonderfully eccentric but catchy music.
The Best is Yet to Come (Part 1) is a mini-album that plays at 45 RPM, whose eight songs mingle quirky post-punk dub-funk with something altogether poppier and frothier. They are unafraid of utilising quirky sound effects and stylings that, in others hands, might lead to a kitsch novelty factor, but in theirs the results range from outright pop to the skronk-punk-jazz abstraction of “Eyes on You” to a weird slowie to vaguely Talking Head-ish moments to the cinematic exotica of the title cut. Uncategorizable and brilliant, keep your eyes and ears attuned for more from on this lot.

Recently, Mc Ride had become a victim of one such news after his fans were convinced he was arrested. At first look, the video will have everyone deceived. However, after looking at the video carefully, it is possible to tell that the man is NOT Mc Ride.

Beyond the Yellow Haze, it is a mesmerising work that combines field recordings, found sounds, ambient electronics, hand percussion and dub techno. It leaves the listener wondering why, in a career that has already spanned more than a decade, Ogboh is only releasing his first album in 2021.
Ogboh, who has been a resident of Berlin for the past six years, comes from Lagos in Nigeria and the city is ever-present in his work. Born in 1977, Ogboh studied graphic design before becoming interested in sound art in 2008 after a media class at the Egyptian Fayoum Art Center’s winter academy with Austrian multimedia artist Harald Scherz.
