The night welcomes Dioscó na Mbó to Kilkenny an Irish band who seem to be up to their eyelids In tunes and song and dance. They play traditional funk and disco with a contemporary slant using electronic instrumentation and electrified vocals whilst staying true to their roots playing music. Dioscó na Mbó’s live show has gained widespread recognition in reviews from around the country, as being a thoroughly enjoyable proposition when faced with a Saturday Night out on the town.
REPLETE a record producer , DJ and host of MOOTS RADIO ON podcast series will be leaving his dimly lit apartment complex to come on down to spin some records as part of his live DJ set. Get yourself ready and pumping for the sounds of deep house and banging techno.
----
Dioscó na Mbó oscillate electrical current at particular frequencys, deposit beats at intermittent junctures, strum guitars with organically created limbs and position unnecessarily convoluted words within sentences.
We aim to do something along the lines of marrying live electronics with the musicianship of a live band. Live drummer, harmonies, guitars, percussion, samples, synths - that sort of shtuff - keys and bass riffs of the disco and funk era, etc...
Since June 2013 the Sligo four-piece have brought their original live set all around the country playing in Dublin, Galway, Cork, Donegal, Offaly, Sligo. They have supported Rhythm Scheme and Come On Live Long and have also played their own shows in The Twisted Pepper, The Grand Social, and Sweeneys amongst others.
"....it sounds beautiful, it’s undeniably danceable, and it has a strange characteristic of mystery running through it, which is probably a good thing given the sudden prevalence of disco. It’s like all that 80s keyboard disco except really good." - July 12, 2013 in Totally Dublin Music Reviews
"After being extremely impressed with their live show, I was unsure if they would be able to deliver as well on record. This track (Brassanova) confirms that Dioscó na mbó are as much a studio as a live band." - Soundblob 08/10/13
