Shy Child-Noise Won’t Stop




Release date: Out now

Format: Single
Genre: Electro rock
Our Rating: 3/5

Like the rubik's cube-you can't figure out these boys. Call it Dance, Pop, Electro, or Indie this duo have made a niche for themselves, and too right to. There music incorporates a mish mash of beats, pedal effects, rhythm -it is clearly a bombardment of noise. Hold up, not the chaotic builders noise but listenable and ear-pleasing. Let’s just say their title says it all, ‘Noise Won’t Stop’.
Review By Priya, MyVillage

Press release
A two-man sonic armada, Shy Child are Pete Cafarella and Nate Smith – a New York-based keys & drums duo, capable of making a towering bombardment of sound, larger than that of bands numbering five times as many members.  A combination of dance music energy and virtuoso musicianship, they stand out from their peers with their blend of rock energy, fat throbbing synths and hip-hop beats – as perhaps the White Stripes might sound were Jack influenced by Kraftwerk as much as he was Led Zeppelin.  And replaced Meg with Clyde Stubblefield.

Noise Won’t Stop sees Nate’s prodigious drumming talent brought to the fore with a performance that redefines ‘funky’, whilst Pete bombards you with fizzing electronic gut-punches ensuring you will dance to this track whether you want to or not.  The B-side, Cause & Effect also comes from the forthcoming album (released 21st May) produced by Chris Zane: a gradually building track with a more conventional house beat, though no less funky, with Pete’s synths swelling up to a furious crescendo.

With Pete employing the much-derided ‘keytar’ and an inordinate number of effects pedals to accompany Nate’s inhuman breaks, Shy Child’s live shows have been a key facet in their appeal to UK audiences, who took to them immediately: “I like the energy of those kids going crazy and having fun,” says Nate. “The reaction we get is a lot stronger than in America where the crowds tend to be more reserved.”  They can also count Hot Chip among that established UK fanbase, with the Mercury-nominees long-time fans and comrades on an extensive US tour.  With Noise Won’t Stop the album imminent, Shy Child will be cementing that reputation with a run of UK shows right through the Spring, including a full UK tour as main support to the Klaxons.
