This special edition marks the passing of one the original Spirit of Gravity founding members: Steve Gillitt, AKA minimal impact. The first hour contains a helping of top grade experimental audio from around the orbit of the Spirit of Gravity collective, some choice cuts from recent SoG performers, and a sonic tribute to Minimal Impact. The second hour continues with some essential and unreleased Minimal Impact recordings. Rest in noise Steve.

You can also catch up on all the previous shows this year from the Gravity Waves page at spiritofgravity.com/gravity-waves/

We are extremely saddened to hear of the death this month of one of the founding members of the Spirit of Gravity Collective, Steve minimal impact Gillitt. In some ways he was the beating experimental heart of the Spirit of Gravity, with his single-minded search for the perfect noise, and keen willingness to collaborate, although if you played with him, he nearly always drowned you out with his volume. His 30 or so live performances in the first 15 years or so of our history were all memorably uncompromising, as were his appearances at related nights such as Wrong Music. He gave us the audience participation concept the electrocreche, although unfortunately we cannot fit this in at our current venue at the Rossi Bar, and his sardonic humour and rebellious attitude kept us honest through the years. His last release on our BandCamp label in 2018 was due to be part of a larger project, which we are very sad not to be able to experience, but he has left an archive of unreleased material from over the years, some of which we hope to be able to share with you in due course. We have lost a friend as well as a remarkable artist, so we will be marking Steve’s passing a number of times through our 25^th Anniversary year, but this starts with Geoff Cheesemaster’s more comprehensive tribute on our website here: spiritofgravity.com/steve-minimal-impact-gillitt/
