All here at SUBSET HQ have been blown away (again) by the talent of you SUBSETTERs!

First it was the anonymous video for Silent Treatment that was passed on to us, then our good friend Dan Zagni produced a video for Ambrosia – and now comes a video treat from 11 year old Jay Sillito!

Yeah, you read that right people – this young dude has produced a video for Lucid Dreamer that cannot fail to leave you with a big ol’ grin on your face.

We can’t stop smiling every time we play it so we felt that we just had to share this with you :0)

Just in case no video appears above click here to see it on our YouTube Channel

SUBSET – Ready to GO!

by Subset on April 5, 2011

So, it’s another Spring day in London – that means it’s raining.

The lads are pumping themselves full of coffee in order to numb the reminders of the weekend’s indulgences.

Even though they’re looking like they’ve been sleeping rough for the last few days (I’m afraid to ask just in case some of them actually have been) the mood is good here at SUBSET HQ.

The fuzzy foursome (quite literally this morning as they appear to have all dodged the razor as well as the iron today) are joking around and don’t look like a band that has spent the last four months holed up together and been forced to be creative.

In fact, talking to Rom, there was no sign of being forced to do anything:

“We’re constantly writing and recording ideas, this is why we sent 14 tracks to Expats when we only needed 5 – then we let the SUBSETTERs choose their 5 favourites”.

The guys are also bouncing around like excited kids as they are back doing what they love best – playing live!

“Don’t get me wrong, I actually enjoy working in the studio with this lot” says Jay, “but my whole point of being in a band is to play in front of a crowd and SUBSETTERs are the best crowd to do this for”.

Rob adds: “and our first few shows are on home turf for me and Steve so they’re going to feel more like ‘welcome back’ parties even though we’ve been keeping the bars warm here when we’ve not been in the cave”.

I asked Steve, who has spent the last 20 minutes trying to convince the others that it must be “beer o’ clock by now” (it’s not even 11:00am yet!):

“it’s been a blast getting the new songs recorded and then, over the last few weeks arranging them for live but I want to see how the new tracks hit the crowd. ‘Av it!”

If you want to see how these new songs sound then you only have to wait til Thursday April 7th when they hit The Four Kings in Dunstable (or Funstable as the Fuzztastic Four have re-christened it) and then, so that everyone gets a piece of fuzz ‘n’ roll, SUBSET are doing a gig for 13-17 year olds at Grove Corner on Sunday April 10th.

Keep you eyes on the listings as there will be more shows added now that they boys have tasted freedom…

… you have been warned
