BMEX (Barmouth Music Experience)
This is not an official BMEX website, but BARMOUTH.COM try to support BMEX . Originally formed to help and encourage young musicians, providing performance opportunities, BMEX put on gigs every last Friday of the month at the Buffs Club in Barmouth, usually from about 7 till 10pm. For more information email Rob Owen rob-bmex@hotmail.co.uk
It was party time at the Buffs on Friday 30 Jan 2009 when MY FAVOURITE RUNNER UP returned to the Buffs to launch their new self titled CD. Brilliant night. Every night seems to be party night with these lads. The Loaded Dice also presented a strong set of fine songs.
Another successful gig on Friday 28 November with three quality bands Void Illusion ,local band Loaded Dice and finally Rue the Day

BMEX have done it again. Two fine young bands. Stone Free from Aberystwyth, certainly not the Hendrix clones I had expected on seeing the name. Original adventurous catchy rock tunes with plenty of dynamics and effective use of synth sounds. Professional on and off stage. There are some good recordings at www.myspace.com/stonefreeband or watch our video of Stone Free at BMEX
I approached the Buffs club while Inferno were playing and thought it was a Motorhead track being played through the PA. The sound is that tight and hard hitting. High energy is an understatement. All three musicians are more than competent, the drummer is one of the finest I have heard anywhere, providing a seemingly endless supply of imaginative fills, while keeping a driving beat. If you like powerful, no nonsense rock, bands don't come much better than INFERNO. www.myspace.com/infernorockband
Well done Rob for presenting two more outstanding young bands. Highly recommended to gig goers and other promoters. Thanks to the BUFFS CLUB and to Dave Hone for sound.
If you think I'm just going to praise every band that plays in Barmouth, and who am I anyway to write this, I earned my living playing music for over twenty years, I've seen all sorts of bands from Black Sabbath to Blondie to the Clash, and these young bands really are impressive. But if anyone else wants to write reviews, please send them in, and if they are not offensive they will be uploaded.
