Koha entry

Cecil Turbine
A solo music project blending post-rock dynamics, ambient spaciousness and modern minimalism. With micro samples, loops and a fusion of processed bass guitar, modular synth, looped live drums and vocals, Cecil Turbine is like James Blake meeting Sigur Rós.

Tough Guy
With melancholic guitar loops, drum machines, and powerful in-your-face vocals hooks, Tough Guy's music sounds like a cathartic release of musical venting. Songs that accidentally escaped the confines of a broken persons bedroom. Inspired by Explosions in the sky and the late 2010 Dunedin sound, Tough Guy sounds like Tash Sultana's younger brother stole her gear and released an emo album.
