No footage of the SoG Q4, though. And no mp3’s.

For the last Spirit of Gravity re-release of 2021, what could be more festive than 8 covers of classic Christmas tunes by members of the collective and friends? “Not Just for Christmas” was released on Christmas Eve, featuring tracks from Rashamon, Hot Roddy, Sh*tmat, minimal impact and others.

The latest release on the Spirit of Gravity BandCamp label is “Works from Home 2: Rhizomes” by Andrew Greaves.

“Rhizomes; horizontal plant shoots, emerging elsewhere as new lateral stems.”

This engaging set of pieces, constructed during the pandemic, feature samples from recordings of Andrew’s father Frank, a classic lead tenor. These have been edited and collaged, and are accompanied by Andrew’s signature keyboard tones. This process triggered memories which informed the directions taken by the work.

“Rhizomes” is available to stream and download now at spiritofgravity.bandcamp.com/album/works-from-home-2-rhizomes

Previously on the Spirit of Gravity net label is a very limited lathe cut from Noteherder & McCloud, hand numbered in clear vinyl, titled “Laurie’s Revenge”.

Says Geoff Cheesemaster about their latest offering:
“We took the opportunity under lockdown to try a new way of recording, well new for us anyway. For years we’ve only ever played and recorded “live” whereas this gave us an opportunity to work more as other folk do, recording multiple parts, multi-tracking and generally doing more than we could attempt in a live situation.
“We were very pleased with the results and so asked Spheress to remix the track in his own inimitable style. When we got that back, we felt that a limited 10″ release was the least we could do.
“This release is our tip of the hat to Laurie Johnson.”
