Zubzub (ex-Ozric Tentacles)

Mindflux

Perrenial festival favourites, Zubzub, have released a new album, "The Powers that Beep", on Mesmobeat, techno-legends Eat Static's label. With a heady mix of breaks, d'n'b, trance and techno with more than a hint of psychedelia, it should appeal to many!



ZUBZUB is the creation of long-time Ozric Tentacles bass player, Zia Geelani. After more than ten years (1991-2002) of widespread touring, writing, recording and producing with the Ozrics, Zia now concentrates full-time on crafting distinctive dance tunes, where the emphasis is on infectious grooves and strong production. ZUBZUB are;

ZIA GEELANI (ex-Ozrics): Writing, production, programming, synths
MARK "MINDFLUX" FLETCHER: Co-writing and production, synths, percussion
JON “CHAMPIGNON” EGAN (ex-Ozrics): flute, ney, duduk, zorna
ALEX PYM: electric and acoustic guitar

This album finds the group moving up a gear, both in terms of covering a breadth of new musical ground and being a more focused dancefloor-filler than the previous 2 outings. The new album is also a more band-oriented production, with the current line-up having gelled over the last two-years, through extensive performance on the live circuit - performances that have drawn rave reviews and a solid and cosmopolitan fanbase. "The Powers That Beep" is finding a wide-audience, as it twists and turns its way through a myriad electronica and dance styles, but with the continuity of the distinctive Zubzub vibe and sound weaving it together in to a cohesive whole.

Its available now, from all good online retailers. If you want to hear some of it, just head on over to our profile at www.reverbnation.com where there's 2 tracks from the new album, in FULL - the title track and Geodesic. And, if you sign up as a fan, there is FREE, unreleased music available too!)

We've been playing it out live at festivals all around the UK this Summer, with a few more to come, so hope to see some of you in the fields :-)

Have fun!
