Oisin Lunny has been commissioned for a further series of idents for RTÉ ONE on air from January 2008.

“Oisin was selected as composer for the new RTÉ ONE idents on the basis of his sensitive approach to the project. We needed an Irish sound that was unique, but not in any way a cliché, we also needed 12 variations on the theme so that each ident would be unique yet still be part of the whole. Oisin’s creativity and imagination gave life and vitality to a fresh new look for our premiere channel. When the time came to augment the new look with additional idents, he again came up with the goods, working against a tight schedule Oisin delivered on time, on brand, and in perfectly harmony with the new visuals. As Creative Director of RTÉ, the Irish National Broadcaster, I have no hesitation in recommending his talents!”

The Best of Seeca 2008

After another busy year, it’s time to celebrate the eclectic host of artists we have on the Seeca roster with releasing ‘The Best of Seeca 2008’ !!

This superb selection of diverse musical treats opens with an atmospheric track from Iceland’s ‘VATNA’. This is closely followed by ‘The Exits’ blasting a Kasabian esque number called ‘Fever’. We then have huge amounts of talent oozing from a new exciting female singer-songwriter ‘Anna K Jarosz’. Followed by, ‘Marc Ozall’ delivering a moving Damien Rice style ballad ‘I Can’t Sleep Tonight’.

This wouldn’t be ‘The Best of Seeca 2008’ without tracks from the original crew members Oisin Lunny and Mat Lester. Oisin’s ‘Theme for a Northern Soul’ reminds us why he is our most prolific & successful composer/producer. Mat has been working under the guise of ‘The Warrior Monks’ and this shows him entering into new territory from his previous band ‘The Lights’ with a hit record ‘The Exorcist’ on a drum n bass tip.

The Best of Seeca 2008 also features emotive & “atmospheric cinematic tracks” from Soundtracks for a B Movie and IGLOO FM .

Everyone here in the Seeca office thinks it is our best offering yet.

Radio 1 supports Soundtrack for a B Movie.

Soundtracks for a B Movie “Misanthrope”

Where man and machine coincide, where Electronica meets post-rock, where nature and technology are wrapped around each other in a cocoon of hidden secrets and muted emotions. Born from the notion that live guitars and percussion can be coupled with a mix of electronic textures for a truly undeniable effect of the listener taking you on a day dream you may never want to awaken from….
Yes Soundtracks for a B Movie is the sound of one man taking twilight back for the dreamers.

The Common Redstarts “British Social Attitudes”

Radio support from Zane Lowe @ Radio 1, Dermot O’Leary @ Radio 2, Xfm London, BBC 6 Music, Forth One Fm, Xfm Scotland Xfm Manchester, Clyde 1 Fm and Kerrang! “British Social Attitudes” was recorded at Chemikal Underground’s Chem Nineteen studio’s in Glasgow.

THE EXITS

Hailing From: Portsmouth

Biog: Their upbeat mix of synth driven dance/rock with uplifting undertones has led “The Exits” to cause quite a movement on the south coast and London circuits. With performances at the HI FI South Festival, the 2006 Primal Scream end of tour after show party, and sold out shows at The Brixton Jamm, Wedgewood Rooms and Portsmouth Guildhall. Their rabble rousing electro sound sets them apart from the crowd and has allowed them to sit comfortably in both the live music and clubbing scene, and seen them support DJ sets from indie legends Bez (Happy Mondays, Black Grape), and Mani (The Stone Roses, Primal Scream). There is no question that these guys from the south coast are a future force to be reckoned with.

For Fans of: Primal Scream, Kasabian.
