MARINA ZISPIN, aka Glasgow/Newcastle-based synth pop apparitions Bianca Scout and Martyn Reid, have been haunting the shores of the UK since forming Marina Zispin in the summer of 2018. Together, they occupy the infinite twilight space that exists between fantasy and reality.
Juxtaposing the sacred and mundane; they transform the selected minutia of their everyday existence into the totems and litanies that comprise their stream of conscious anthems of interdimensional melancholia.
Marina Zispin released their debut 12” on Night School in September 2023 - this was followed by a UK tour that same year and a live session for BBC 6 New Music as well as performing the year after at Collisions festival in Bucharest. The rest of that year was spent recording their debut album Now You See Me, Now You Don't which is now out on Scenic Route.
Some words about SQ Mice's new album: "A collection of widely divergente songs and recordings, carefully sequenced to mess with any expectation. Spanning from no-wave gestures to the scent of post-rave nostalgia, this debut album evokes the electric stasis of early Seefeel songs mixed in the lofi manner of Dj Funk, where the liminal guitar of a John Lurie soundtrack meets the tape distorted drum machine of Belgian BeNe GeSSeRIT.Captivatingly sung in three different languages by Madita Schrott, who deftly navigates the record's bursts of noise, microtonal synths and squelching basslines. SQ Mice presents a very unique blend of electronic music with a strange, tangy rock aftertaste. Don't you call this odd mixture post-punk tho, SQ mice is a style by itself! It comes from Squeamhy, a tasteful redux of youth culture, reclaiming the sound of their older siblings and rising above the stricture of genre, in a very distinctive fashion."
