About
- "Just when you think you have heard the best of the two-piece Irish electronica scene (Solar Bears, Nouveaunoise) another one comes along." - Eoghan O' Sullivan, The Point of Everything
"Beautifully textured and pitched electronic bleeps from Dublin duo Brendan Roth and Steve McEvoy whose tunes to date indicate an act with a lot going on under the bonnet" - Jim Carroll, On The Record
"A mind-melting piece of rabid electronica that’s as proudly self-indulgent as it is lovely... Absolutely zero chart appeal" - Hot Press
"An excellent collection of bright tunes, fusing the organic with electronic, forging these fields into a bright palette of multiple textures" - Nay McArdle, Harmless Noise
"Manages to be both dance-around-your-gaff-friendly electro and blissfully relaxing" - Echoparade
"Pulsating...Futuristic....Very clever indeed" - Celina Murphy, Hot Press
Datadrip are two Dublin-based multi-instrumentalists who like to play live electronica. The duo formed in 2009 via Internet boredom and a mostly mutual taste in music. So far they have released a collection of early demos and two EP’s - available for free at datadrip.bandcamp.com - tracks from which have received both national and international airplay. Their most recent EP ‘Collision’ has enjoyed positive reviews from the likes of Hot Press, The Ticket, and Harmless Noise. Other highlights so far have included playing at the Hard Working Class Heroes festival for the past two years, being asked to play at Whelan’s Ones to Watch 2011, and featuring on the Glastonbury 2011 emerging talent longlist. Their live set contains a multitude of synths, guitars, samplers and mid-song instrument swapping, and they would very much like you to see it. Oh and apparently they like aliens and unicorns…

- Hope your all going to Steve's EP launch tonight. I'm pissed I can't be there. Anybody want to shoot some shakey fan footage for me? http://www.facebook.com/events/312911775444801/
- Well Steve's only gone and released a solo EP, the sneaky b*stard! It turns out it's quite excellent too. And free of course... linky http://stevemcevoy.bandcamp.com/
- https://www.facebook.com/forwardslashdublin Everybody! If you are into lovely beers and great gigs [free in, of course], you should check out the Forward/Slash night that is on in the Bernard Shaw every Thursday night. Tonight it's BANTUM. He's the man.
- Thanks everyone who came out to see us and everyone else in the Twisted Pepper on Saturday! We had an absolute blast. It will be our last show for a good while due to emigration. In the meantime you can download our two EPs from http://datadrip.bandcamp.com/ for free!!! YAYYY!!!
- The gig on Saturday in The Twisted Pepper is going to be a big one. It's going to be our last gig for quite a while due to the curse of emigration. It should be an excellent night with the likes of BANTUM, Reid, Monto, SertOne, Frankie Bingo, Lemonada and Dogs all playing! We're going to mark the occasion by giving away loads of physical copies of our last EP to anyone who wants one. It's €12 in, but if you leave a comment under here, we'll put you on the cheap list for €10. We're going to be playing around 21:00, but there are going to be some fantastic acts playing from 20:00 straight through to 02:30. See you there! http://www.facebook.com/events/199862146774252/
- Big big hugs or high fives (whichever you prefer) to everyone who came last night. Was a great night, thanks to Sleep Thieves and Tenaka.
- Unfortunately The Casanova Wave has had to pull out from the gig tonight *sad face* Fortunately, Tenaka has agreed to fill in at the last minute! *happy face* So the running order should be something like: 9:00 Tenaka 9:45 Datadrip 10:30 Sleep Thieves See you there!
- We'll be starting things off upstairs in Whelans tomorrow at around 9. You're more than welcome, even encouraged, to come and dance away even if you don't have any November blues. http://www.facebook.com/event.php?eid=106356716144620
- We're playing upstairs in Whelans this Saturday with Sleep Thieves and The Casanova Wave. It's only €5 in, and apparently it's all new and shiny up there. Free high fives for the first 600 people! http://www.facebook.com/event.php?eid=106356716144620
