FUNKY DUBBY presents Omega 66 @Gwdihŵ.

If you’re looking for some slap-bass funk chic with a sprinkling of rock and electro all wrapped up in a laid-back ambiance nugget, then you’ve come to the right place.

August 13th sees Gwdihŵ filled with the melodious sounds and unstoppable beats of Omega 66, fresh from their success at the Small Nations Festival and ready to put a bit of carnival spirit in your Friday night. If you like y…our beats electro-funky, your feet uncontrollably dancing and your ears exploding with delight then Omega 66 will not disappoint.

But don’t just take our word for it here’s what the critics had to say about Omega 66’s latest musical offering.

***********************
“Magic Notion, featuring Sabrina Mahi, has a slap-bass funk chic about it. It’s Demeaning is a quasi-political knees-up masterpiece with echoes of Soul II Soul reverberating off frantic electronica. Sally Thomas’ vocal effort on The Way It Is lends it a lush laidback Massive Attack ambience while Something On My Brain’s house tempo plays alongside a Beta Band quirkiness.

On the basis of these previews, there’s definite cause for excitement. But even more exciting is the fact that the desire to bring the LP’s qualities to the streets has resulted in the end of Omega66′s three-year hiatus as a live act.

With the terrific material at their disposal and their indisputable live prowess, the MMP suggests this ride might be one worth getting on”

“Rock, R&B, Electro, Funk and spaced out vibes this is a great sound.” ZM **** Buzz Magazine

“Infectious funk rhythms and melodious grooves” Megan Cambell – Sound Nation Magazine

“It’s always nice when you come across something that is hard to pigeonhole and this little number is definitely a defiant little bugger. Part rock, part dance, part pop, part soul, part funk, but all top quality” Peppermint Iguana Zine ****
