On his latest release, the logically titled 2, Irish-born Ciaran MacFeely (aka Simple Kid) has moved on from the cut and paste styling of his groundbreaking debut 1 to a more organic approach to the writing and production. While it still retains many of the memorable features that jolted critics and fans on his first outing, 2 moves Simple Kid's sound in a more earthy direction, with linear sonance and focused production: less laptop, more guitar, harmonica and banjo. However, he still knows how to throw a party with tracks like "Lil' King Kong" and the stream of consciousness lyrics of "Serotonin" (described by NME as Radiohead meets DJ Shadow). 2 raises the bar and brings MacFeely into the league of the best songwriters of his generation.
