About Me |

| Roma Kid are existing Isolation artist Michael Tickner, main man in Moth and guitarist/vocalist in 'Heliconia', and David MacPhail, and whose previous band 'Icer' provided Isolation Recordings with its first release. 'Heliconia' drummer Jon Lamont has recently joined the fold.The band's brooding yet jagged electronica was well received by Barcode electronic music portal, was played on the Nick Luscombe Flo-motion show on XFM and is scheduled to feature on an advertising campaign on MTV.Centre and Periphery
Roma Kid's debut EP was released on Isolation Recordings (Isolate_005) in 2004.On the six-track CD Roma Kid take crunchy, scratched up programmed beats, chipped and looped guitar sketches and ambient drones, and produce something sounding kind of nervy, kind of dancey.
Included are remixes by Akkadian, ex Icer guitarist, and Hink, who was most recently live guitarist with Kelli Ali (Sneaker Pimps). Akkadian offers a smoother electro version of Consume, while Hink provides a taut and glitchy take on Desert Base.The full track listing is:
Consume; Moukoko; Desert Base; Polit Skyala; Consume_Akkadian Remix; Desert Base_Hink RemixThe beautiful cut-up artwork for Centre and Periphery is provided by Planet Mu designer Ben Curzon.Centre and Periphery received a very positive review from influential electronic music portal Barcode.The CD received a rating of 7.8 out of 10, with the reviewer describing it as "a very impressive debut EP, well worth a peek".A track from Centre and Periphery was played on the Nick Luscombe Flo-motion show on XFM recently. Nick described the EP as "beautiful stuff".A further boost for the band came with the news that Polit Skyala from Centre and Periphery is set to feature as the soundtrack to an ad campaign by the Staying Alive Aids awareness charity which is backed by MTV. The band are currently working on their debut album which is due out on Distant Noise Records in July 2008!!!! This profile was edited with Thomas' Myspace Editor V3.2b |
