After a pretty impressive 2014 High Focus Records seem to be continuing the pace in to the new year, and their latest release comes courtesy of new signing Onoe Caponoe, with his latest album ‘Voices From Planet Cattele’.
For those unfamiliar with Onoe and his, shall we say, different approach to the music…. ‘Onoe Caponoe, the Lord Catpissdelic myth is a earthly being possessed by the ghost of Jim Willow the Wizard. A Funkadelic sperm from the sexual organs of the 169 world Onoe Caponoe uses alien technology to record vocal crystals telepathically transmitted by his thoughts’ according to his press release!
This may give you an idea of the vibe that Onoe brings to his music, wildly imaginative, vivid imagery coupled with a tounge in cheek humour and Brothers Grimm style stories.
Entirely produced by Chemo, widely regarded as one of the best producers in the UK, the album owes as much to the psychedelic rock of the 60s and 70s, (with its tales of heroes, dragons, elves and other LSD inspired madness) as it does to Hip Hop. Onoe creates whole worlds, populated by his strange characters, and draws you in to them, all the while keeping one foot (or possibly just one toe) in the real world which he also inhabits (a prime example of this is the simple story of a weed dealer not showing up, ‘Disappearing Jakob’).
The album is best consumed with an open mind and some kind of intoxicating substance, and is suitable for summer days blazing in the garden or 4am post rave twistedness. Its hard to pick favourite tracks as the album works best when enjoyed as a whole, but ‘Goth Bitches’ featuring Jhest is one of the more coherent stand alone tracks, along with the first single ‘Space Bitches’
A truly unique artist who does exactly as he pleases, I am looking forward to seeing the progression of Onoe Caponoe, and what he can achieve with the High Focus camp.
Words; Chris

Bar Suave, 181 Spon St, Coventry, CV1 3BB

eMCee was born early in 2014 which went live for the first time ever on Thursday 5th May 2014 on Coventry’s famous Spon Street with no expectation what so ever also with no solid thought or idea how it would turn out.. With a collection of hand carried and half borrowed equipment, a status was put up on local groups on various social feeds. No posters or flyers and at no cost , a new Underground night came alive.
eMCee is still proudly a growing night for Coventry with new talent from across the UK still eager to take part at this full Open Stage Underground Jam Session, full access to all equipment on the night to use as you wish to promote the music you love.. Just keep it real and from the street. Keep it fresh to impress the crowd, show them what it takes to me a real eMCee.. Its not just how cool you look holding the Mic, hell no… An eMCee needs to connect with the crowd in such a way that cant be taught but only advised.. Whether you Beat-Box, Dancer, DJ or Mr killer Mic. It is the energy you bring to the stage what will give you the connection you search for.. When you can control the crowd to your every need, you will have found your eMCee.
The first event of the year we will start as we mean to go on and showcase a full night of extreme artists for you to enjoy..
Live performances from..
Shakezpeare / Novar (FLIP)
Big Rizby / Trademark Blud
