VERSUS: three of Edinburgh’s finest noise-hungry racketeers are set to mash up and pound out a shrill of lug-piercing sonics at the Wee Red. Using a format that’s never before graced an Auld Reekie stage, the Bear Scotland triumvirate of The Foundling Wheel, Dead Boy Robotics and Enfant Bastard will set up concurrently and duel track to track, concocting scintillating aural juxtapositions that ignite the synapses with waves of neuron-transcending clatter.
The Foundling Wheel: builds noise-saturated, melody-laced mountains of programmed polyrhythms and bit-crushed distortion.
“A one man wail of screeching banshee sonics” – The Skinny

DeadBoyRobotics: spits out call-and-response broken-beat synth-punk at splintering decibles.
” their oh-so-ironic yelping and synth-prodding wankery is head-splitting ” – The Skinny

Enfant Bastard: circuit-bending drum-machine-addled anti-folk that can rarely be arsed to finish what it started.
“tape crackle hisses away in the background, instruments slop about all over the place, and everyone sounds wasted” – The Skinny
