Miaoux Miaoux

Miaoux Miaoux is 26-year-old Glasgow based producer Julian Corrie, who makes spacey hypercolour indie dance pop that recalls the best of Caribou, Erlend Oye and Four Tet. After a series of self-released records, and acclaimed shows across England and Scotland, he is our latest signing, with a new single and album due out in the first half of 2012.

With a stunning live show, where improvised loops and guitars collide with fizzing synths and low-slung bass, as well as producing slamming remixes for the likes of Silver Columns and Discopolis, we have absolutely no doubt that Miaoux Miaoux will be a name to watch in 2012.

Drowned In Sound ~ Captain's Rest November 23rd, 2011

Electronic wizard, Miaoux Miaoux unveiled a preview of his new album at the Captain's Rest this week and what a preview it was. The first half of the evening saw Julian Corrie's standard soundscapes expanded upon with the help of a full all-star band - including Paul Carlin (Dananananaykroyd, American Men), Kris Ferguson (Mitchell Museum) and Anna Miles (Maple Leaves) and guest vocalist Profisee - fleshing out his synth/guitar to a thumpingly loud degree. But while their addition brings much to the table, when Corrie took things into his own hands for the second part of the set, things got even more speaker-shakingly exciting. If you like to dance, this is an album you'll want to be looking for when it appears, in the man himself's words, "at some point next year".

Radar Scotsman ~ Captain's Rest November 23rd, 2011

It’s no secret that we are quite partial to a bit of Miaoux Miaoux around these parts, having been fans of his output for some time. And so it was with more than a little anticipation that I headed to the Captain's Rest for a preview of his new album, set to be released next year.

Shows that are billed as featuring ‘special guests’ can often be hit and miss affairs, due to the subjective nature of the word ‘special’. Tonight, though, Miaoux Miaoux, aka Glasgow-based producer extraordinaire Julian Corrie, has extended his singular stage persona to a veritable super-group of Scottish indie, with a healthy dash of hip-hop thrown in for good measure.

Making up the backing band for the evening are Anna Miles of (Corrie's other band) Maple Leaves, Paul Carlin of (the sadly departing) Dananananaykroyd and Kris Ferguson of (the sadly defunct) Mitchell Museum. The set also features a guest appearance from hip-hop legend-in-the-making Profisee on a new cut. It’s something out of the ordinary to hear Miaoux Miaoux’s output in this full-fat band format, but it works incredibly well, with the newer material venturing more into lush pop territory with huge melodies stretched over some incredible beats.

Halfway through the set Miaoux Miaoux takes the stage to himself and tells the audience they better be ready for a dance. While new tracks seamlessly fit into this set, it’s clear that there has been a progression from his most recent series of singles and EPs that will undoubtedly make Miaoux Miaoux's next offering one of 2012's most hotly anticipated new records.

Simon’s brief introduction over, he was followed onstage by one-man poptronic wonder Miaoux Miaoux, who live-looped drum samples and the metallic strumming of his electric guitar as easily as if he were in his own bedroom. His set pulsated with lively versions of tracks from his 2007 album, Rainbow Bubbles, and ended with ‘Snow’, the closer to his 2010 ‘Blooms’ EP, on which his small but perfect voice shone through the electronic hum like a beacon.
