Technasia meets underworld for a pint of Guinness. This is a recent description by the UKs BBC Radio of the Celtec Twinz music. At only 23 years old, twin brothers Mark and Richie Thompson have been producing and pushing their own sound for several years, a sound which incorporates and fuses the old traditional percussive instruments of Irelands turbulent and tribal past with the forward thinking element of dance music...Techno. Not wanting to involve themselves in over-rating hype, the twins have simply kept making and playing music, a philosophy which has seen them recently sign to UK techno jock, Ade Fenton's Advanced records. With We were Kingz their massive debut EP due to drop on Vinyl, after an outstanding pre-release digital download performance on Richie Hawtins and John Acquavivas beatport.com, things are getting much more hectic for these young men. Patrik Skoog (Headroom/Sweden), Agent Orange (Gotham Grooves/USA) and Alan Simms (Shine/Ireland) to name a few, have already been given the privilege of remixing Celtec Twinz tunes and equal amounts of remix work has already started to come the twins way. Their name (pronounced Kell-tech) simply explains what they are all about.techno with a Celtic feel. On the dance floor expect the same quality as they fuse everything from techy progressive to fat tribal, dark percussive to trippy electro, click tech-house to full on party techno cuts. With more releases already lined up on Advanced and other imprints, big things are happening for these brothers from Ireland! Comments[0]
