Play 90 second soundbite of 'Go Home' @ 'CD quality'
Redmojo don't really fit into one single genre; they're loosely indie but cram into their fine musical wares influences of blues/rock, jazz and even a smidge of funk. The end result is something fresh sounding and extremely likeable. Whether lifting you up with ballsy melodic rockin' rhythms ('Who Am I To You?'), grabbing your attention with subtle, mid-rock brilliance ('Go Home') or making you sit and marvel at a balladic masterpiece ('Dylan'), Redmojo are as tight as a gnats arse and their songs are superbly crafted in all aspects.
So, as I've already mentioned, 'Go Home', 'Who Am I To You?' and 'Dylan' make up this massively impressive piece of work. Quality through and through, it's not difficult to see why Redmojo have come oh so close to making the bigger league. It seems so unfair that a band of this standard is still scrounging around for recognition; Redmojo have it all and are ready to go - all the way! All these guys need is that one lucky break, to be at the right place at the right time. Redmojo are truly professional in all that they do here; strong songs with loads of variation in terms of light and shade, pretty diverse stuff that's better than a lot of the 'signed' bands around at the mo'. Redmojo sound like they're totally sorted in themselves, they play as a unit and everything's done to an absolute turn. This demo is a forerunner to an album due for release later this year - I for one am really looking forward to hearing that baby! If I'm getting off on just three tracks, I can't begin to imagine what Redmojo will do to my senses with a full-blown album of their superb songs.
Redmojo have instantly impressed me with this short but exquisite demo. Redmojo look like they're ready, once more, to take on the 'big boys'. With what I've experienced here, the mature song writing, the excellent musicianship and the total togetherness, I can't see anything standing in their way - it's now just down to luck really! Stunning stuff!!
