Lightning on Galatea - a little something on the wild side! High octane prog/fusion instrumental with sizzling horns, keys/piano pyrotechnics, rip roaring sax leads, a positive blast of fine power drumming (and more!). Embracing something of the sound world of classic outfits such as Yes, Focus, Sky, Steely Dan and the like but at the same time distinctively original. Dave on keys, an assemblage of other fine international musicians in the mix and some dynamic mastering down at Abbey Road Studios (Simon Gibson). Surefire muso therapy for all who have a taste for old school instrumental high jinks.

Martyn Cuthbert is a passionate and dedicated self-produced musician from Kilmarnock, Scotland. His debut album, "Shoulda, Coulda, Woulda," was released in the summer of 2023 and is a guitar-driven, riff-fuelled, emotional rollercoaster. The album pays homage to the classic side of rock influences like Guns N' Roses and AC/DC but with a modern twist. Martyn's second release, the "Book of Songs EP," is a collection of acoustic rock anthems that highlight his unique storytelling skills. His music is fuelled with emotion and honesty, and he writes his songs unfiltered.

He first picked up a guitar at the age of 14 and has been playing ever since. Although he wrote all his life, it wasn't until his mid-30s that he released his first solo records. Life experience has made him a better songwriter, providing him with a unique insight into how he processes the world around him.

His songs are always guitar-driven and unrestricted in terms of genre. As the sole producer of his music, he has the freedom to use his imagination to bring his songs to life. Martyn shares, "I can hear an entire song from start to finish in my head before I pick up a pen or a guitar. It consumes me until it is finished. I will always write honest lyrics as I feel it captures the moment perfectly." Martyn's influences include Nirvana Foo Fighters Guns N' Roses Slash Oasis Biffy Clyro blink-182 U2 THE UNDERCLASS The Libertines Muse Royal Blood Slipknot Linkin Park Papa Roach The Offspring Iron Maiden

Kraftkabel is the artist name of Philip I. Buckland. I am a musical scientist in a parallel universe living in a studio flat orbiting Jupiter. My keyboards are suspended in gravity nets, and my mixer is controlled by the power of the mind. My cosmic sequencing software masters through the power of emotion, and my keyboards are simultaneously both retro and new.
My music originates from the point of divergence of these universes - the mid-late 1980's, but is spliced by genre splicing interludes. I use a time machine and dimensional portal to get to work.
For the other nerds out there:
Hardware synths: 
Moog Subsequent 37; Hammond SK Pro; Roland Jupiter X, JD-Xi, S-1; Korg Prologue, NTS-1, Monotron Duo; Sequential Take5; Yamaha DX7; Akai PRO MiniAK; Novation Mininova; Arturia MicroFreak; Modal SkulptsynthSE; Teenage Engineering PO-20; Sonicware Liven Evoke.
Main software: Ableton, Arturia Analog Pro, InSidious, random free stuff from the interweb and Dexed to program the DX7. Audacity. All played through Arturia Keylab and Keystep (which has a better arpreggiator).
Plus some guitars that I can't really play very well. And an mbira, tin whistle and an alien head-shaped ukulele.

TBR channels the intimate aesthetic of a solo artist, then puts it through a high-gain filter of grunge and metal. Forget polished studios—TBR delivers a raw, home-brewed sound that captures the grit and energy of garage rock. It’s heavy music with a personal conscience, offering a visceral commentary on modern life and political angst into potent, riff-driven anthems.

TBR’s sound is built on a powerhouse foundation, born from a bass player’s driving, ballsy rhythm section. This core energy is an adrenaline-fuelled blend of trad rock, hardcore punk, and thrash metal ferocity, which later exploded into diverse territories of cutting-edge alt rock and raw acoustic folk. No matter the evolution, that inherent metal edge and electrifying power remain the uncompromising heart of their sound.

However, the true TBR journey ignited during the pandemic, born from a burning need for authentic passion. Disillusioned by cover bands and playing others' songs, reflection forged a new path: the undeniable drive to create something truly their own.

Dive into the powerful debut album, Random Acts!
Forged over 10+ years, this album is a compelling collection of songs that masterfully merges a folky foundation with the raw energy of grunge and garage rock. Experience a sound that is both distinct and timeless, a strong and proud debut standing as a powerful statement from TBR.

However, what came next was the sophomore album; On The Surface. This is not easy listening. This is the sound of breaking points and breakthroughs, a sonic exorcism that rips through years of pain and reclaims the wreckage. On The Surface is an unflinching self-reflection, a time capsule of necessary growth and the tough, brutal road required to finally take control.

The music is a visceral assault, a lo-fi powerhouse that bleeds Grunge's grit, Thrash's fury, Sludge Metal's weight, Garage Rock's swagger, and Post Hardcore's intensity. The influences are worn proudly, but the resulting sound is uniquely its own—raw, self-produced, and pulsating with authentic, untamed energy.

This album weaponizes fear, anger, and self-depreciation, forging them into a liberating and transformative experience. It is the best form of therapy available, a testament to enduring the darkness to find the light. Prepare to face the void and emerge, finally, on the other side.

Get ready for an authentic, impactful musical journey that defines the core of TBR's unique artistry.

Sometimes introspective; always driven by a wider social conscience and a sense of human fragility. Touching on topics that tear at the heart of the human condition (loneliness, love and loss, homelessness/poverty, social exclusion).  And, there again, what’s a songsmith if not a conjurer of dreams? Dreams to lift us, if but for a moment, above the dull vicissitudes of life. Dreams of a world reimagined, that brave souls will always aspire to whatever the cost (Martin Luther King Jr...). A glimmer of unfeigned empathy. A glimpse of sunshine after rain. Music offered as a little healing for troubled times; a solace for the soul; a little heartfelt scattering of dreams - tread softly! 'Our life is no dream; but it ought to become one, and perhaps will' (Novalis)

I like to create songs in differents styles, sometimes ephemeral songs to express a passing feeling, and at other times definitive songs.
