The latest Spirit of Gravity BandCamp label release is Andrew Greaves’ new album Headspace
A collection of nine electronic pieces created out of a process improvisation.

The album  is aptly named. Its sparse, yet warm soundscapes offer plenty of room to wander and to think.

Greaves has adopted a simple set-up here, and improvised around equally simple melodic fragments. Less is always more in this particular sonic world – but while the sound canvas sits within certain guard rails, there are no such restrictions on either the dynamic or the emotional range.

Almost folk-like half-tunes interlace with spare and careful interpolations of found sound. Occasionally, over the album’s forty minute journey, playful references occur in one track to another. Forty minutes is, of course, the classic album length – like a Georgian house, a size and shape to which we return. And this lyrical and considered collection is a bit of a classic too.

Stream or download for £9 at spiritofgravity.bandcamp.com/album/headspace

Also available as a boxed dual format USB stick expanded album: £10+postage
This version includes the album in lossless WAV and MP3 formats, 6 specially commissioned films and VJ performances, photos, cover art and more.

Sophie Sirota: Viola: ambient soundscapes & evolving textures
Agnes Haus: Fractured semi-autonomous modular explorations
Remember Glaciers: Improvised guitar, flute & generative synth

Sophie Sirota is a classically trained violist, singer, and composer. With an extensive career spanning across genres, Sophie has collaborated as a session musician, live performer, arranger, and composer with some of the most iconic names in music, including 4-Hero, D’Influence, Gabrielle, Beth Orton, Ed Harcourt, Paul Weller, Kim Deal, Robert Kirkby, Tindersticks, and visual artists Jeremy Millar and Sadie Hennesey.
Sophie blends her classical training with modern experimental sounds. A member of Coastal Electronauts and the Free Range String Orchestra, she regularly performs in the South East and London. Known for her innovative performances, Sophie creates ambient soundscapes, using looper and effects pedals to craft intricate, evolving textures. These live performances, particularly at electronic events, have garnered attention for their atmospheric depth and emotional resonance.
Her debut album, ‘Pressure Drop’ came out on Oct 24th, and has been reviewed as:
‘….captivating solo work using voice, viola and pedalboard.’ (JA- Electronic Sound)
‘A flame in the dark and a moment in time, as universal as it is deeply personal…’ (Rowan Blair Colver- Sound Read Six)
‘…takes you to big spaces with dreamy skies, all the while with a slight, ominous undertow which adds a certain industrial, urban spice.’ (Tim London- Outside Left)

Agnes Haus is a Brighton-based non-binary audio-visual artist and composer, creating murky, fractured aural landscapes that revolve around semi-autonomous explorations with modular synthesisers. In 2023 and 2024, respectively, their first two albums, “Sequel’ and ‘Everything Is Resurrection’ were released on the iconic Opal Tapes label – praised for their bleak minimalism and organic spaciousness. The upcoming 3rd album, Inexorable Ascent, is out 5 December 2025 on PenelopeTrappes’ Brighton imprint, Nite Hive. Agnes Haus’ live performances are fully improvisational, purposefully slow and hypnotic, with haunting self-created dystopian cinematics. Along with audio, Agnes Haus is known for their visual work, exploring the dark and the surreal through music videos for artists such as Mogwai, Penelope Trappes, and Microcorps. They have shown their visual work at Queen Elizabeth Hall, Attenborough Centre for the Arts, EarTH, Dark MOFO Festival, Sonica Festival and SXSW.
