manchestermusic.co.uk presents another slice of new music at the CASTLE OLDHAM  with another seminal chapter of The Electric Circus...

FRIDAY the 20th of APRIL 2007 welcomes The Star Fighter Pilot (aka Martin Bryant) : we said "..pure 21st Century living played out on cold, harsh digital circuitry, yet the resulting sounds provide campfire songs for urban revolutionaries - Atmospheric, insurrectionist observations are rife in The Star Fighter Pilot’s rhetoric- the kind of noises that provide a bridge from modern dance to the heady primeval origins of the Human League in 1979..."

In the blue corner (or is that red?..) we have the marvellously monikered Tim And Sam's Tim And The Sam Band With Tim And Sam - see what we did ? - no lazy journalism here - anyhow - Tim + Sam ..well what a beautiful compelling noise they make - our very own Cath  was moved to write : "Tim and his real friends play lovely indie-flavoured melodic post-rock with gorgeous peals of acoustic guitars, a clarinet and a glockenspiel propped up on an ironing board.."

For listings junkies the cold hard facts are below, for the rest of you it's a very reasonable THREE QUID and you can get in after 9pm - hope to see you there "looking good on the dancefloor.."
