Spirit Factory & The Beatle Nuts

 

Fugue State

At its core, is a 4-piece band that plays a rapturous mix of gothic blues, modern chamber music, and hard-driving punk rock. The band is comprised of two Texas born multi-instrumentalists, Kyle Jeffcoat on guitar, violin, and vocals, and Brent Scheihagen on bass and vocals. On drums and piano is Berlin native, Marco Ortman. And on lead vocals and harmonica is New York City refugee, Lance Gura. So tell me, how do you get your kicks for living?

 

Warning: The music of Fugue State has been known to cause blissful psychiatric conditions of delirium and dementia followed by an overwhelming desire to return to the musical trance that the listener has just broken free from. In other words, this is your brain on the lullabies of God.

 

Spirit Factory

 

"Footsteps rattle and reverberate throughout the forgotten factory, dissolving, returning, collapsing in on themselves in a discordant babble. A hand drops a needle and hushes the unruly prattle. A melody emerges. The ancient machines beguiled; their slumber ended. Sinews and wires crackle and spark. Oily black fluids circulate. A vestigial flicker twitches steely limbs back to life. The dance has begun. A new spirit stirs."

The music of Spirit Factory is a soulful alchemy of disparate parts:

A dash of the blues, a sprinkling of progressive rock, a little goth and grunge thrown in for good measure among carnival sounds and hard rock histrionics--sometimes euphoric, sometimes melancholic, but always utterly captivating.

The Beatle Nuts

 

Mark Darvill is an English acoustic guitarist/singer/songwriter currently based in Taipei, Taiwan, and a former member of local Anglo/American trio, The Red Cliff.

 

Axel Kirch only visited this planet occasionally before he started his first Taiwan-based band ‘Shuaigoren’. He loves to arrange pieces of music from all genres in his own distinct Bossa style.

 

Daniel Hagen is a human being who likes eating, sleeping and feeling good. He wants some things, doesn't want other things, and is generally indifferent towards everything else. He just happens to particularly like singing, playing and writing music.

 

Together, they had the crazy notion to do something rarely done in rock music: sing in harmony and do it well. What better way to put an insane idea into practice than learn from the masters.
