The Nouveaunoise track ‘Cinnte’ is an old favourite around these parts. Toby Kaar has chopped and screwed it into a “cloudy” mix.

Kaar really impressed me at Whelan’s Ones To Watch festival in January aided by a monome-style device and a set that reminded me of Jamie xx and Mount Kimbie. I think I tweeted something along the lines of “Holy shit! Toby Kaar’s set in Whelan’s is making me want to get tore up and fight a chair. Amazing.”
That reaction may just happen again as Toby Kaar is playing Upstairs in Whelan’s on Saturday March 5th with support from another impressive Cork producer Coherx and Junior85. Tickets €10 incl booking fee available from WAV Tickets [lo-call 1890 200 078], www.tickets.ie & www.ticketmaster.ie
