Found: 'This Mess We Keep Reshaping' (Fence) Hailing from Edinburgh this open ended CD covers a gamut of styles and genre blending ideas. I think it'd be safe to assume that the basis of much of this groups' ideas stem from strong song ideas which are them combined and contrasted with strains of contemporary electronica with hip hop scratch FX and old world samples rubbing up against loose limbed drum breaks, acoustic strum, banjo's, viola, double bass and cello. There's a playful sense of musicians pushing what they know of each others skills, the songs verge from up-beat folk rock, experimental balladry all plucky strings and brushed drums. There's fuzzy analogue electronics and dynamic/dramatic percussion and achy vocals. The collection is topped off with some semi-orchestral, Beatles like psychedelia.

What the label says:

Edinburgh art-poppers, FOUND, mark their debut on Fence Records with 11 tracks of electronic bleep-hop song wizardry.

As the title suggests, This Mess We Keep Reshaping is an album awash with starts and stops, where songs build, reset themselves, and regenerate again into something different - from the twisting key changes of opener ‘Plotkiller’, to the shifting gonzo-squawks and squeaks of ‘See Ferg’s In London’; from the progressive chanting layers of ‘Admission Number Two’, to the desperate breaking pleads of ‘When You Fall’.

With each new start, pop’s possibilities are explored; ideas bounce around mirrored parts, echoing into unexpected tunnels and turns, before resurfacing - strengthening the song with their kaleidoscopic hooks.
