 Holding Pattern reviewed by the wonderful scouttv.com.au You can read a lovely review of our EP at scouttv: www.scouttv.com.au/cd-reviews Thanks scouttv we love you! (Check them out for some extremely well produced podcasts) Review of Holding Pattern: Dizzygotheca are an electronica/dark wave duo hailing from Brisbane. Holding Pattern, their debut EP consists of nine tracks of glitchy, textured beats, ethereal sound scapes and layerings of haunting vocals. Heidi, the feminine side of Dizzygotheca, weaves her words around Anthony’s beats, slowly creating a blanket of sound with which the listeners can wrap themselves. Clearly influenced by bands like Portishead, Aphex Twin and Sigur Ros, Dizzygotheca bring their own fresh, and uniquely Australian sound to the often stale and stagnant electronica genre. The tracks on Holding Pattern are nothing short of beautiful. Singing of truth, love, beauty, truth, and our natural world, Dizzygotheca have laid down the soundtrack for a film that doesn’t yet exist. Standouts are Cocoon, which is so hauntingly touching you are almost saddened when the track draws to a close, 1000 Seas, with a distinct Bjork influence, and I (Heart) Robots, which came in at number 34 in local radio 4ZzZ’s Hot 100 of 2007. The packaging of Holding Pattern seems to be something special too. Hand printed on 100% recycled cardboard, and numbered, each copy is its own little masterpiece. Regrettably, I purchased the EP on iTunes, but will no doubt get a physical copy in the near future.

We have had some great ones, and some real stinkers :)

You can now get Dizzygotheca's "Holding Pattern" e.p. from I-Tunes. Very exciting stuff!! So if you feel the urge please give Dizzygotheca a search in your itunes window. We ended up using a service called Tune Core, which lets us keep control of all our sales through i-tunes. It also let us list in Japan, American, Australia, Canada and Uk/europe.. sweet!

 The shop is now open, yay!
After a bit of fiddling with paypal and joomla code i finally got it sorted out, apparently you have to edit the code without the WYSIWYG editor for them to work.. sheesh Anyway... you can now order both guys and girls tshirt's, as well as our first release E.P directly from the site ( well, kinda directly ). You do need a paypal account to purchase, put its a free signup and its probably the most secure form of payment on the web. So buy, my pretties, buy.......

 We have been busy screen printing for your pleasure, and first responses from people have been great.
Each cover is printed on a recycled cardboard gatefold sleeve, and comes with a small insert also printed on recycled paper. There are 3 designs currently, one with black over red months, one with black over blue cubism and the final is black over chinese paper in colours of red, orange and gold. Each cd is numbered and is in a release of 500. These will be available at the cd launch @ rics bar, and soon after online. We hope you are as excited as we are.

 Its getting very close to the release of our Holding Pattern e.p and over the next few months we will be letting you download remixes that didn't make it onto the cd release.
First on offer is a great interpretation of our track "I [heart] robots" by six seconds.. taking our glitch electro and giving it a distinct goth rock flavour. You can find some six seconds info here Want to download the track? right click here and hit "Save as". Otherwise just play the file below
