The definition of one to watch is an artist who is clearly adept at making music and impressing but maybe hasn’t gone as far as the album making cycle. MOTHS aka Jack Colleran has a good excuse. He’s 17 and still in school in my hometown of Newbridge, Kildare but he’s already made a couple of standout electronic jams. Definitely keep an eye out for more of this goodness. And again, he’s ONLY 17.

Wow. Fair play to him. Really encouraging to see younger folk getting into moozik production. And he’s not just “good for his age”. He’s good.
