| RUBIKON's
New Wonderland... |
RUBIKON is an exciting new
electro pop band. The duo brings together, Huw Williams
and Tiff Lacey, for the first time. Both have already
established strong electronica credentials, with
chart-topping hits.
Now RUBIKON are working-out in studios in London
and Barcelona, creating a rich, lugubrious and sensuous
electro sound, with lush effete vocals. It's further
embellished by soothing, melodic guitar riffs. This deep
textural sound-scape is produced with a Roland 100
Modular Synthesizer (as used by The Aphex Twin, Human
League & Depeche Mode) But don't take our word for
it. Why don't you listen to your FREE ON-LINE MUSIC trax
now and judge for yourself!
RUBIKON's premiere album, WONDERLAND is released
in the fall on the Swedish electro-pop label Substream
and will be available internationally. Wonderland is
written and produced jointly by Tiff and Huw. The mixes
include David Amo and Julio Navas (remix), Fresco Spain
(Barcelona voted Best Up and Coming Team in deejay,
2006). Trax on Wonderland include 'Why Keep On' which is
produced by Lance Thomas, renowned for producing
Ladytron's first album, 604 now a seminal cult electro
classic.
Huw Williams is an accomplished electro wizard whose
recent success, Rookie 'I'll Do You' is co-written and
produced with Point 4 Records in London. Rookie signed
to the label in May 2005. They have re-mixed under many
different guises, including Dido, Faithless, Lemar and
Dru Hill. Their hit sounds comprise 56K, Stylus, Y-Traxx,
Thrillseekers and Curtis Mantronix. This summer, Rookie
is sizzling in the US, out on San Francisco's OM
Records. The profile is enhanced with remixes by Andy
Caldwell and Richard Dinsdale (Toolroom) , two of the
finest re-mixers around today.
Tiff Lacey developed her bewitching vocals and lyrics
gigging rock, blues, folk and indie bands, around
London's club scene. But in 2002 she broke into Trance
with Paul Oakenfold's Hypnotised, which became the
best-selling dance single in the US. Subsequently she
has written and featured on a plethora of tunes for the
likes of ATB, Matt Darey, Headstrong, and The Flash
Brothers, seriously entrancing the Trance genre. Further
Tiff appears on major film soundtracks, like 'Marrakech'
(ATB) the theme for the movie 'Mindhunters' (starring
Val Kilmer & Christian Slater).
RUBIKON have a forthcoming tour in the pipeline,
incorporating an explosive audio, visual and
pyrotechnics show. RUBIKON is definitely an act to
look-out for! by Chris Barber |
