Kieran Dold aka Kara Kara put this mixtape of his material new and old along with remixes that he has made thus far on the the eve of his 22nd birthday. The 16 tracks serve as a fine introduction to what he does, mixing snippets of rap and R&B vocals (and Michael Jackson) with high-rolling buzzing electronic synths and head-nodding digi beats. Live, he has used a Gameboy to great effect previously. He’s lined to play Hard Working Class Heroes in October. Bully is a free download or pay what you like deal. Loving his artwork too.
