Room Tones	Jun 4 2009 6:02 AM Tickets £6 avaliable from: wegottickets.com Svarte Greiner (Deaf Center/Miasmah/Type) explores deep into a dark, mysterious and disturbing universe. Drawing inspiration from artists such as Earth, Volcano the Bear, David Darling & Deathprod, the music is draped in Lynchian mysticism and horror film cinematics. "The music of Svarte Greiner is practically perfect. It's like that sound in our heads we've been imagining for ages but had never actually heard." - Type Records. The Sight Below (Rafael Anton Irisarri/Miasmah/Immune) draws as much on modern genre progenitors like Brian Eno, Robin Guthrie and My Bloody Valentine as it does from the more historic traditions in neo-classicism from Erik Satie and Olivier Messiaen. His album Glider has appeared on Thom Yorke's radar in making the Radiohead's lynchpin's top ten playlist. His debut album Navigare soon to feature on the Miasmah label, Simon Scott (former Slowdive) is set to be a household name in conceptual music. Simon is the former Slowdive drummer, co-producer of Televise, producer of Seavault, and owner of KESH Recordings label.
Lost Voices	May 28 2009 11:19 AM Legends of Flight, Jonathan Raisin, Benjamin Stead at Lost Voices - TONIGHT!! Thursday 28th May at View Two Gallery. Hope you can make it...
Room Tones	May 3 2009 6:05 PM Machinefabriek is amongst the finest experimental/electronic artists of today. His ultra-prolific back catalogue showcases his ability to perfect classical ambience, organic drone soundscapes, electronic minimalism and cathartic noise. He is hailed as one of the most interesting new experimental musicians by the Wire magazine. Xela is the shady, underworld atmospheres and improv horrors of John Twells, owner of Type Records. "Xela has always been able to pre-empt the shifting tides of electronic music and deliver a statement that's definitively of its time” (Boomkat). His debut album Navigare soon to feature on the Miasmah label, Simon Scott is set to be a household name in conceptual music. Simon is the former Slowdive drummer, co-producer of Televise, producer of Seavault, and owner of KESH Recordings label. Tickets £8 avaliable from: wegottickets.com Piccadilly Records

michel gauthier 2	Apr 7 2009 6:47 PM The dark nights and solitude of the desert these are like the winds that we prevail in the vast the unspeakable, we thus face a reality in our revealing ourselves and allowing us to grow and subdue our woes that are all too often that a reflection that life makes us seeing them to seriously. How painful moments pass before we become aware and transmute these moments of pure abandon and so we return in the morning in a bright new day where everything is possible.
