Calika - Seedling Mother: CD Out Now
Simon Kealoha's second album on Audiobulb brings forth an interplay of detailed electronic and acoustic elements. The reviews are flooding in:
"an immersive and impressive experience" - Clash Magazine
".... Kealoha merging Squarepusher-like bravado with the type of rambunctious post-rock attack commonly practiced by Run_return." - Textura
Visit the site to hear track previews from this extraordinary album.
Seedling Mother is available on CD and digital download from the ABulb Shop.

No, the comparison isn't warranted; this is better than Jenkinson's recent efforts.
Seriously though (although the above is serious too), I can see why the comparison to []music, but very well done.

Sorry last section of that post should read:
Seriously though (although the above is serious too), I can
see why the comparison to squarepusher's music. Not my sort of music, but it is very well done.

Audiobulb as a whole is very underrated.

Thanks for your comments - that's an interesting viewpoint Rostasky - what makes you say that - and how would it get more rated?
As with any small indie label - it is hard to get noticed on a wider scale - hard as I try to work on that.... I would appreciate any views on how to push the label's rating!

I agree about being underrated audiobulb has some quality artists. But the area you cater for is a small one. Also with most of the punters being technically savy they just rape what they want from oink.
Have you been in any of the local magazines David? Exposed and the other city ones?

yeah - we've been in exposed & sandman :)
but underexposed and under rated are two different things arn't they...
i know a lot of people are into what we are doing
it seems that more people know about us than i thought
we have a mailing list of +1200 & 6000 visitors per montrh to the website
but there is always scope to try and reach more people - it is a niche sound and locating those people who are into it is the challenge
worldwide distro channels is a big challenge as well - i still need a US distro company with a decent reach.... also Italy & Australia
anyway - hope you enjoy Calika :)
