6th July at the Rose Hill: Far Rainbow / Ræppen / Annie Kerr, Gus Garside and Kevin Moore

** PLEASE NOTE THE CHANGE OF VENUE – FOR ONE MONTH ONLY **

Far Rainbow
Drums and noise

Far Rainbow are an improvising duo using drums, sellotape, plastic bags, toothbrushes, motors, pencil sharpeners, electrical hum, and thunder storms. Their album, The Power of Degenerated Matter, was recently released by the Slightly Off Kilter label, following various cassettes and CD-Rs on Zero Wave and Linear Obsessional. Their music has been compared, by Paul Margree of the We Need No Swords blog, to “the free-spirited electronic kosmische musik that Hans-Joachim Roedelius and Dieter Moebius may have created in their Cluster heyday if they had King Tubby rather than Conny Plank producing it.”

Ræppen
Sami influenced Shamanic drones using voice and percussion

…mixed with modern music technology to create hypnotic soundscapes, Ræppen is the work of a Nomadic travelling Shaman who travels the planet playing ritualistic drones. Not much is known of the Shaman but when the ritual is performed the Shaman will use hypnotic rhythms to develop a trance like state to be at one with the spirit world.

Annie Kerr, Gus Garside and Kevin Moore
Improvising trio: double bass and violin with FX, electronics

Annie Kerr (Violin and electronics), Gus Garside (Double bass and electronics) & Kev Moore, (synths and electronics) are all members of and regular players at Brighton’s foremost free improv night ‘Safehouse’. Annie and Gus have a long history of playing their acoustic instruments through effects chains and all three have played together in various combinations with and without effects many times. It being improv, could go any way, but we are expecting scrapes, scratches, swoops, excessive delays and bassy rumbles.

PLUS special guest, get down early for minimal impact

1st June at the Green Door Store: Fane / Bitter Disko / Nuclear Whale

Fane
Folk music from the furthest reaches

Fane released a self-titled EP at the beginning of 2017, a 2-part gnostic ramble through ancient Britain, followed by a second EP of two ambient/drone pieces shortly after. Mutated banjo, squeezebox and mandolin sit alongside beats and psychedelic drones in sagas of faraway places.

Bitter Disko
(live hardware breakdown)

Bitter Disko is a restless live hardware soundtrack of rhythmic experimentalism. Using cheap trash & analogue gear to produce percussive electronic sounds has generated a series of stripped-back nocturnal tracks that recall influences from classic electro, warped techno & tribal drumming.

Nuclear Whale
Digital/Electronic secular apocalypse

4th May at the Green Door Store: Roshi feat. Pars Radio / Karen Constance / Lorah Pierre White

A concert for Delia Derbyshire’s 80th Birthday.

Roshi (feat. Pars Radio)
Iranian traditional songs and London electronica.

Roshi Nasehi is a Welsh born singer-composer of Iranian parentage with a strong track record in live performance, collaboration, recording and workshops. As a child she sang 80s pop, songs from musicals and Welsh folk at school and in local choirs. At home her parents played old tapes of Iranian folk and pop music and her father resumed traditional violin playing, which influenced early compositions. She also learned piano and in 1997 won a place at RWCMD to study composition and sang in the jazz ensemble directed by Keith Tippett. She moved to London in 2000 and before long formed her much acclaimed “experimental, electronic Welsh-Iranian folk pop” project Roshi Featuring Pars Radio with prolific percussionist/producer Graham Dowdall. It’s an unorthodox sound world combining Roshi’s intimate singing style with Gagarin’s experimental electronic powers to create a unique genre-crossing, ‘exotic, folktronica landscape.’

Roshi has received several commissions including the Belonging exhibition at the Museum Of London, BBC Radio 3’s The Verb, So & So Circus Theatre, Birds Eye View, the Southbank 2012 WOW festival and the British Council for whom she presented major public sound art pieces in Kuwait in May 2014.
