P.S. The band will be showcasing this material and

Parnell St.

Nu-Phuse are a concept band where the musicians
effortlessly blend a myriad of styles - Jazz, House,
Techno, Funk, Electronica, Ambience, Cinematic
Backdrops and Breakbeats into a deep and intense
soundscape defying description. This sonic assault is
created by the band’s willingness to integrate
acoustic instruments such as Double Bass, Drums, Sax
and Piano with electronic ones such as Samplers, Drum
Machines and a Host of other electronic gadgets.



The band anchored by the powerful funk inflected
hip-hop/Drum ‘n’ Bass grooves and breakbeats of Conor
Murray on drums started out as an experiment on how to
blend electronics and samples along with the live
interplay of the musicians. The samples and
electronics supplied with perfect accuracy by Kevin
Dwan create dark atmospheres for Saxophonist Sean Og
to weave in and out of, almost as if they were locked
in some other worldly dialogue with one another.
Fattening up the rhythm and egging on the front line
is Gavin Lockhart on Double Bass directing the music
with his growling and synth processed Mingustonian
bass lines. Whilst the classically trained So Yung
Yoon provides a harmonic flexibility which the band
revel in.
