Keep it simple II – August 2012
So August was Al Strachan, another return for Gagarin this time with Mark Beaseley as Low Bias and The Mothers of The Third Reich
keep it simple I: JULY 2012
I realise I’ve been slack so a quick catch up on a good 3 months worth of musical pleasure, starting with a mixed bag of Gillian Yeah (aka Gillian), Strangers From Birth and Timothy C Holehouse vs Left Hand Cuts off the Right.
Super.
Travelling through time and space
As we all do, we usually manage to keep in some linear path, unless something comes along and waylays us. I’m not quite sure what happened to me, but a previous post (http://spiritofgravity-brighton.blogspot.co.uk/2012/05/surprise-visit-to-quiet-place.html), theoretically for May – and once labelled as being June – was actually April.
The last post is right about being for June, which means that the REAL May has been laying up in limbo. Not even posted up on soundcloud or youtube.
Till now:
May was film night as it turned out, the début of Andrew Greaves’ twenty twenty project, a film/soundtrack from Jobina Tinnemans and not film related directly but pretty epic stuff from Daniel Alexander Hignell.
Why isn’t it like it was 10 years ago? (UPDATED FOR TIM)
Due to an incredible laxness brought on by unseasonable lethargy caused by unseasonable cold and rain, followed by unseasonable lethargy due to seasonal heat I’m really late getting this posted up, July should follow soon…
Henry finished the show with an uncharacteristic set, in Shitmat terms of superfast breaks and comedy gabba, but if you’d been paying attention to his blog you would have seen the mighty Mash Hits project taking shape (http://www.shitmat.co.uk/category/mashhits/) and you would have known that The Spirity of Gravity was hosting the only live performance of it…
We’ve been trying to link up with Tim Didymus for well over two years and so we were really happy to host this performance of the automated Glass Armonica and synth setup, it was truly something special.
And starting the evening off with a set of location based puns worthy of Flann O’Brien (I’m reading “The Third Policeman” to my kids at t bedtime) ZPG had an excellent scattergun of beats and noises reaching through space and time in a most enjoyable manner.
Henry also introduced the idea of WWWebwalking, which he was pretty good at, and we had a go here:
A surprise visit to a quiet place
For various reasons The Green Door Store didn’t happen for us in May, luckily (very as it turned out in the end) Sara Jane found room for us and we had a magical evening At The Coach House, with
I’m Dr Buoyant and Hope to Coax
Roshi feat Pars radio
Nil
And a little bonus video of a non SoG show that I think you’ll like – The Monkey Puzzle Trio – featuring Charles Hayward from This Heat on drums.

Hmm Blogspot, your new editor is confusing me, but I don’t care cos I’m coasting on the joy of another really good Spirit of Gravity show. Our first at The Green Door Store.
Embla Quickbeam was first on the floor, well just above the floor, in real life.
Andy Wheddon was first on his pins, and the first Karaoke machine.
Fallow were the first to get a skull and dual laptops going
And June Deer just did it barefoot…
