Papa La Bas have emerged from their darkened cave under the castle of Nottingham to bring us their new album 'Anechoic' showcasing the voice of Dr.Siobhan Lynch & the music and production prowess of Dwyzak the Elevator (Tusken Coalition).
Siobhan has had a busy and prolific career as a writer and musician. Currently completing a PhD in philosophy (of music and technology), she has produced music in many projects and collaborations from an extremely young age (Recoil: Mute; Travelite: Interscope). She also writes poetry and fiction, and is a keen keeper of eleven dream diaries. Siobhan works solo and with other artists, but her work for Papa la bas with Dwyz is unique, in that he provides the entire template of sound for her to write her strange, delimited and deconstructed songs to. The two came together to produce in 2006, and have recently completed their first album, a sublime realm of electronic sound, beats, minimalism and cultural reference. Dwyz works with many acts, producing, deejaying, and if they are really lucky, spitting lyrics too. In-house producer at Dealmaker Records at the time, Dwyz and Siobhan were introduced by the label owner, Ste, to collaborate on a track for his forthcoming compilation LP ‘Departure Lounge’. The seeds were sown, as was a uniquely interesting sound. A duo in the studio, Papa La Bas is supported by a 7 piece live act that delivers the maturity of the studio sound to transfixed audiences. Dwyz has further ties with Basilica Music through the forthcoming Tusken Coalition EP that he is also producing. † www.myspace.com/papalabasuk www.basilicamusic.com
