These leftfield art popsters are equally at home winning BAFTAs for making robots out of wardrobes as they are devising interactive air traffic control audience experiences. Laying down their second LP in two weeks, FOUND are half psychedelic art project and half swooning indie band who are riddled with electronics that’ll wrong foot you everytime.
‘Machine Age Dancing’, for example, starts as a faithful Motown lope before switching into a beatscape more inspired by Dabrye. There are more straight forward ideas like ‘Shallow’, with the falsetto melancholia of their Scottish forefoathers (and former art teachers) The Beta Band proudly keeping their flag planted in their distinct ground of Caledonian indie wonk. Criminally under exposed.
