Mark Hand - Take Some Chances
Platform 001 - The Last Letter
G-Prod - Horizon
Leo Gunn - Aheeoo

From the UK, South Africa, France and Australia, Inner Shift Music presents their Collective Continents II release, with Mark Hand, Platform 001, G-Prod and Leo Gunn. The Ep starts with Take Some Chances which has Jazz influenced pads, chords and changes with an addictive hook, by Mark Hand who has recent releases on Soul Print and Apollo. Next comes The Last Letter by newcomer Platform 001 - a deep house track with some funk style house chords and an inspiring spoken word poem, which holds the listener's attention throughout.

On the B side we have the Gaugain brothers G-Prod (who have releases on R&S and Nightflight), with their track Horizon which has a more techy feel with its moody pads, melodic lead and subtle but driving bassline.AAThe EP is complete with a whole other level of head-nodding deepness and warmth, with Aheeoo which you would come to expect from Leo Gunn, who is noted for his multiple appearances on Deep Explorer. 

Deep, jazzy, techy, warm and diverse, this EP is everything there is to love about deep house.

Just a very rough mix of me messing around with my new modular synth. This thing is a monster, and I'm having a lot of fun with it! :)

Reflective moment from recent NEEB jam featuring Matt Case on sax. 

Last One October

I wanted all of them. I did my best with one. Fairly chilled out little tune of my devising, from a good old 7/8 loop I got lost in.

Solar Winds of Proxima Centauri

We would like to read your meter!

NEEB have played with many lineups over the years, but the five key band members have been creating music together for over a decade. Also known as ‘the speccy white boys’; Andy Wain (analogue synthesizers and effects), Mark Hand (analogue synthesizers, Rhodes and effects), Mark Lloyd (drums) Peter Casson (guitar) and Tony Waite (bass) have a natural creative connection that fuels a great proliferation of original jams and tunes. 

NEEB have a fair few things to shout about…

40,000 downloads of their mega hits ‘Waxed’ and ‘Tof Gunk’ in Japan via the Toryumon label, a performance at In The City urban music festival (Manchester) and an appearance at Glastonbury (featuring White Negroes vocalist Ian Monaghan) supporting The Egg, Gong and the legendary Rolf Harris! 

The electricity meter does not run out of 50p’s there… NEEB celebrated their 10th year by headlining the Chill Out Tent at Solfest Festival in 2010 playing an epic 90 minute set; amongst the likes of James, The Magic Numbers and Alabama 3.

As a follow-up NEEB played the well respected and expanding Willowman Festival on Saturday 18th June 2011, and they were pleased to join many other bands from Hartlepool playing the same festival.

Since 1999, NEEB’s music has evolved from electronica through to drum & bass, break-beat, funky house, deep house, techno and jazzy-breaks. With a sound somewhere between Nightmares On Wax and Underworld their style is definitely left of centre and eclectic in taste.

The band emerged from the electronic outfit ‘Manitou’ who’s tracks were released on the Experiment Collective Intelligence compilation CD and vinyl EP Module’s One & Two alongside Hidden Agenda (Metalheadz). This very successful release managed to export the band’s music across the world, particularly the Far East and America, in addition to providing the foundation for the subsequent band, NEEB.

NEEB have released music on the Uptown Café Compilation with Toryumon, Sounds from the Funky Underground Compilation with Chocolate Fireguard / Vinyl Assassins (home to successful soul/funk outfit Kava Kava), and their self-released album Northern Electric.

NEEB have played their fusion of beats, breaks and electronica to crowds at Glastonbury, Moles Club [Bath], Maze Club [Nottingham], Timeless Festival [Huddersfield] supporting Zion Train and Pee-Wee Ellis, Lift Festival [Manchester] and the totally cool Telfords Warehouse [Chester].

“Kicking in with a bad¬ass break-beat, NEEB delivers hip swinging beats and acidic electronica.” (MIXMAG)
