A new release from Spirit of Gravity is out now – Spherical Dancefloor by McCloud.
McCloud – otherwise Geoff Cheesemaster – presents a three-track mini-album of intense and introspective minimalism. Partly recorded live, it packs a scratchy rhythmic punch.
It all started when he bought a drum machine. “Two years on, the sounds I had inside finally came out of my mind, down through my arms and into my kit” he says, “I’ve been performing these two pieces for the last few shows and enjoying them very much. Each one is different.”

The album can be downloaded or streamed here: spiritofgravity.bandcamp.com/album/spherical-dancehall

Evey: Electro post-punk meets industrial tech-noir
Cederick Knox: VHS mashup with live improv synth score
Emma Papper & Jason Smart: Electropop for those who don’t like electropop

Evey is the moniker of Brighton based musician James Eve,who makes music inspired by both the raw, focused electronics of post punkbands like Cabaret Voltaire and the playful arrangements of early RyuichiSakomoto, full of urgent, propulsive bass-energy and gloomy, cinematic breadth.

Cederick Knox will perform their ongoing and evolving VHS mashup project ‘Archive Fever’, made from chopped up 70s and 80s BBC music documentaries and old black and white news reels. Music is derived from the original film soundtracks and glitches, guerrilla field recordings of orchestras and choirs, and a live improvised synth soundtrack on a Volca FM and Stylophone theremin. Think People Like Us reimagined by Carl Stalling with the fatiguing, neurotic repetition of early Philip Glass.

Unlikely duet Emma Papper and Jason Smart; dark lords ofthe underworld, visionary poets of a lost generation, inventors of the Cadburycream egg. They are none of these things.
