Shiver Me Timbres – Pandacetamol
Shiver Me Timbres by Pandacetamol is a pure manifesto of sophisticated Electronica that sounds like Scottish pioneering electronic music from the 1990’s beamed up to the present time. The current Pandacetamol album delivers 50 minutes of gloomy downtempo doodlings, where The Black Dog goes snoopy and Plaid the cat is jumping on a hot tin roof.
The majority of Pandacetamol tracks are recorded in one take and then edited and polished as required. They wholeheartedly believe that this method of capturing the musical “moments” as they happen when a jam is in process is an essential component in conjuring electronic music that has an organic atmosphere and emotional edge. Dark but filled with hope, hypnotic but constantly morphing, opulent but sinister, their tracks are bite-sized journeys which together make up a full tasty meal of sound. Each of their EPs and albums are carefully composed to be enjoyed as a whole.
“Shiver me Timbres was the result of some hazy jam sessions in Edinburgh throughout the summer of 2009, (a GOOD summer!). It is laced with indefinable feelings of nostalgia, joy, melancholy and a healthy dash of disquiet.”
(Pandacetamol, May 2010)

Biography Pandacetamol
Pandacetamol are Paul Alexander and Mark Rushbury, a pair of bald blokes who originally hail from Glasgow in Scotland. They possess a genuine passion for sound and synthesis and love jamming on their bargain vintage analogue synths and shiny grooveboxes. The result of these jams are musical doodlings that are ethereal, dark, funky, beautiful and strange all at once.
Previous exploits in Pandacetamol noise-sharing have included three albums released on the wonderful experimental ambient netlabel Earth Monkey Productions. Unleashed to the public throughout 2008 and 2009, the albums “Heavy Concentration”, “The Mystery of Spyglass Hill” and “Nocturnal” have gathered over 6000 downloads between them to date and are all still available for free on the internet archive.
Thanks to a love of early nineties psychedelic acid music, (especially the other-worldly sounds created by Air Liquide, Dr Walker, Khan, Thomas Heckmann etc), a friendship was formed with Dr Walker through the We Call it Acid forum in 2007. After a few tracks were shared, Pandacetamol were invited to play a live gig alongside Dr Walker at the ArtTheater Cologne in March 2008. This led to a Pandacetamol DIGIrelease through the cult Cologne label Propulsion285 called the “Hazy Gaze EP” which contains 5 tracks of funky and intense acid breaks for sheer listening pleasure.
More recently, an album comprised of a live set recorded during an appearance at the UniqueBeats event for the Edinburgh Festival in August 2009 was released and a Pandacetamol remix of the track Special K by Radio Scotvoid (Scott Buchannan of Small Radio) appeared on the amazing album Fragment (Consider Revising) Special K Edition 2010.
