About ...

CAT got your ear?..

Based in Brighton, Amongst the Pigeons is a place inhabited by soaring loops and the beating of electronic wings. Discovered in early 2005 via the talk-speak places internet people huddle, ATP grew forth.

Radio One’s Rob Da Bank was quick to champion tracks from seminal EP release, ‘wings wings: beat’, which also slunk their way onto XFM and local stations.

Contrary to the posters that appeared on Brighton streets following this release, CAT was not lost - just hiding, honing, purrfecting......

DJ slots and remixes for upwardly mobile Brighton musical outfits - Miss Pain, Largo, The Collector, Wobbly Squadron, etc - provided whisker fuelled entertainment, all the while extensive beat-mongering was taking place in aid of ATP’s first full length LP.

‘Music to brush your teeth to’ was released in Aug 2009 and featured 16 tracks of blips, beats, samples and some rather special guests, such as Frank Turner, Beans on Toast and up and coming artists Ollie Barron and Steph MacGregor.

MTBYTT samplers were played out to satisfaction on XFM, 6 Music and Mary Anne Hobbs’s experimental show on BBC Radio One. Positive reviews followed and new fans were made.

Not one to lay low ATP kicked out remixes for artists such as Polly Scattergood and began work on new tracks. 2009 also secured a publishing deal and saw international DJ Sets in Spain, Poland and Sweden.

With a brand new EP, more DJ Sets, more remixes and live shows set for 2010 momentum is building in the ATP Camp ... Flutter, flutter, miaow, miaow..
