Within a world of manufactured images and
marketing pigeonholes, WA based four-piece
Moriarty remain a labelling enigma. Moriarty
are at the forefront of digital and live music
production, creating their own original
contemporary spin on the UK influenced and
vocal based club/chill-out music of the
80's and 90's. A slick combo of bass, DJ,
sax and vocals helps Moriarty re-mix their
own songs into a tight fusion of funky breaks,
soul, jazz, electro, house, and drum & bass.
A year of reworking, refining and recording
sees Moriarty's welcome return to the reality
of live performance with their second album
in tow. Light years ahead of the first 2002
release entitled The Professor, the new
ten-track LP raises Moriarty to the
international standard they were destined
for and demonstrates a bigger, orchestrated
musical dynamic with the recent addition of
saxophone player Aaron Veale.
Moriarty's need for beats ranging from
80 to 175 bpm is still there, but this
time it's all big…very big.
Outside of the studio, live shows were rare
but highlights included performances at the
Australian dance music festival Vibes on
a Summers Day, RTRFM's Festival In the
Pines, Perth International Arts Festival with
The Ku-ling Bros., YAC It Up Youth Fest
and supports for French/Australian award
winning artist Endorphin, The Black Eyed
Peas and ARIA award winners Rogue Traders.
The Moriarty performance has always been
a cornerstone of the band's profile in
Western Australia both in the city and the
country. A highly amped Mooch on vocals
working the crowd into a swirling and gyrating
frenzy on the dance floor is not uncommon
while bass player Steve C. and DJ Stephe P
bring in the music and push the bottom end.
Sax player Aaron - he gives it a whole lot of
soul. All this alongside occasional VJ
projections and awesome light shows has
helped build the Moriarty party reputation
since they started playing in 2002.
Over the next twelve months, Moriarty aim
to keep building this reputation both in the
venues and on the airwaves and are currently
planning their second trip east, this time
taking in Sydney and Brisbane. With all ten
tracks of their new album being worthy of
your best moves, Moriarty is more than
ready to tackle a new year of audiences
both here and overseas.
