[EXCLUSIVE] OOFT - Whistle Time - FOTO RECORDINGS 010

Last year saw Scottish techno duo Silicone Soul celebrating the 10th Anniversary of their Darkroom Dubs imprint. Launched in Glasgow back in 2003, the DRD stamp has become a mark of quality and seen many established names exploring deeper realms whilst also unearthing fresh and exciting global talent.

We are excited to welcome Silicone Soul to the BBB'14 Ballroom Stage / 5.45pm / Sunday 4th May for some of their trademark future sounds and musical vision.

Esa Mervin Granger - part of the Auntie Flo Live show, a resident of Highlife, contributor to Boiler Room and Red Bull Music Academy, Rememory, OOFT Music and Huntleys + Palmers labels – is there a more energetic man in music? Doubtful. He’ll be going back to back with his apprentice turned boss – Fuad – the young Needa Records resident who knows no boundaries. Jack the groove.

Esa's BBB'14 Taster Mix

THE OK SOCIAL CLUB – Raff, Chris, Gordy and Jordan – have fast become one of the hottest young bands to appear from Edinburgh’s underground music scene.

With a massive mix of influences from 50′s and 60′s girl groups to 70′s punk Rock and Roll: it’s edgy, melodic and doesn’t take itself too seriously. Fans including Steve Lamacq’s and Janice Forsyth on BBC Radio 6 have taken the band to new audiences and we are delighted to welcome them to Aberdeen!

The OK Social Club / BALLROOM MAIN STAGE / 2.45pm

The OK Social Club - The Shape Of Things To Come

The Marionettes are one of these bands who have risen way above the pale in terms of musical ability and pretty clever lyrics…” says The Fly. Having been busy in 2013 with two UK tours (including headline performances at the Death Disco at Nottinghill Arts Club) and releasing two singles (Teaparties & Garden Song), Marionettes released their debut album ‘Wisdom to the Wise’ in December 2013 to widespread critical acclaim, and were nominated for ‘Best Live Act’ at the 2014 Scottish Alternative Music Awards. Their album is available now both digitally and on CD format.

MARIONETTES / PEACE & JAM LIVE LOUNGE / 3.45pm

Mungo's Hi-Fi are the top sound system crew with a hectic schedule of live performance, both djing and as a system.

Numerous festival appearances have seen Mungo's brought to Glastonbury, Womad, Outlook and various other festivals where they have hosted stages and tents, performing and bringing some high-profile artists to the UK.
