Quite frankly, Martin Moog appears to be taking the piss. This EP begins with a rousing sample from the King's College Choir and then Moog weighs in with the lyrics "I will be clean, wash me clean as the snow". He lets loose juddering drum beats made from coins falling on the ground, layers of electronic whistles, bells and synths, and someone, quite possibly his mum, accompanies him with a fiddle. He pays tribute to footballing giant Ian St John aka The Saint and one of the songs is called You Like Dogs LOL. But this is too good, too inspiringly original, too unapologetically fucked-up, to be dismissed that easily, making Moog one of Edinburgh's most intriguing new musicians.
