Le Carousel is the new band project from acclaimed Belfast DJ / recording artist Phil Kieran (Soma, Cocoon etc).
For ‘Le Carousel’ Kieran assembled some of Ireland’s finest musicians, writing most of the album while staying in Donegal on the remote west coast. Fittingly ‘Le Carousel’ evokes feelings of half-remembered childhood day-trips and windswept empty beaches. Fans of emotive electronica, blissful Balearica, artists like Spiritualized, Slowdive, Pink Floyd, Steve Reich, Rothko and Galaxie 500 should sign up here, although anyone with a heart is going to take something away from this extraordinary piece of work.
Shoegaze with dancefloor beats? Motorik rhythms with added guitars and male / female vocals? It's indie-dance for 2013 - but in a very good way.
