| Paul Roderick - People I.Q. With a sound reminiscent of early Roxy Music, Eno and Talking Heads; London based music mogul Paul Roderick is now poised to unleash his debut single 'People I.Q'. A tar thick ska-influenced, bass driven amalgamation of edgy drums and slicing guitar riffs, it's set to be released on flourishing indie label Mbop Records on August 23. Having spent the last year feverishly recoding his forthcoming debut album, 'Fusion Paradox' alongside critically acclaimed producer Mike Bennett; former member of The Fall, and renowned for his work with Ian Brown and The Stranglers, to name but a few. Roderick offers up a tantilising cocktail of genres, running the gamut from pop to electro, dance, new wave and rock, to create a post modern convergence that looks set to be a break through album for 2010. Roderick's elusive aura has quickly achieved a mythic status amongst peers, and attracted fans in the form of Spiritualized guitarist Mark Refoy and bombastic Moby vocalist Diane Charlemagne, both of whom feature on single 'People I.Q.' With impending live shows to be expected later this year, Paul Roderick is poised to take his place amongst the British indie rock scene and draw back the curtains on a more opulent picture for 2011. ------- write your comments about the article :: © 2010 Jazz News :: home page |
