   About Lord Edward Dark
--The name 'Lord Edward Dark' comes from a character in 'Dark Towers', a Look & Read drama I became marginally obsessed by as a young child.

--I am also a member of 'The Weary Band' and 'The Color of the Sun' (see the first few top friends)

--I started writing as Lord Edward Dark in mid 2005, and from then until October 2006 I recorded four albums, 'Pale & Blue High Mountains', 'SunSeaMoonStarSunMoonSeaFishStarFishCrown', 'Brook Farm & Fruitlands' and a fourth album that never got (or deserved) a title. I've spent the last two years working on other projects so I've done no more recording for LED, but many songs and many, many more fragments of songs have been written in this time.

--More songs can be found at www.leafkickerrecords.co.uk, which was a label I was going to pursue, but lack of funds quickly curtailed this folly.

------i-n-f-o--------------------
This gang gang from Brooklyn, have emerged from a very fertile, indigenous music scene in their neighbourhood but have branched out way WAY further with their hook ups and hooks. It is a ghetto world music that declines fey introspection but invites in disparate saturated sounds and bang bang dance dynamics. Their multi-faceted music style was first brought to our attention following a series of releases on forward-thinking label, The Social Registry; and subsequently, they have found a suitable home on Warp Records.

The bands assemblage of wonky techno, outer rock, faux arabesque and other strange, spiralling, sinuous music forms that transcend categorisation. Utterly unique and iconoclastic.

“The eclectism is exhilarating” Uncut

“Excellent… a psychotropid mind meld” – Plan B

“Gang Gang Dance may now ascend to the bona fide league of geniuses.”

hey y'all come and check these guys out from baltimore. way to get loose on a friday night! + i play alone but still bring the dirt pop glistening with noise sprinkles

Fresh from their show at Barcelona's Primavera festival, Teeth Mountain will be unleash their heavy concoction of new-wave tribal psychedelic sounds on Cube, using driving percussion like other bands use guitars.

Deep, thick layers of rhythms and overlays of ambiance, from the gritty to the sublime, this eight-piece outfit create a controlled mayhem of weighty neo-tribal trance music, part Indian, part African, part Balkan, and part Baltimore, that transforms consciousness and carries the group and their listeners to higher states.

The Wire magazine recently praised their 'refusal to acknowledge any kind of destination point for their jamming, achieving a convincing state of suspension throughout, helped by some engagingly forceful drumming.'

Teeth Mountain pummel with noise and drums but are always inviting and joyous, a new wave of tribal sounds in underground music. Be prepared to witness a heady, peyote-voodoo brew, getting you out of your seats and on your feet.
Teeth Mountain will enthrall you in a rhythmic, musical spell.

I've been told that mysterious Lord Edward Dark fellow is set to be at Start the Bus next Wednesday. Nothing has been heard of him for months... although I did come across this image of him cavorting with Timothy the Cocaine Monkey at a recent Hotwells knees-up. Apparently he was assaulted with a banana by somebody calling himself Morpho shortly after this snap was snapped...

I had a dream last night. You played me your new album on vinyl. It was called Leafkicker. Side 4 was a mini album called Child. It was good stuff. I'd acquired some magical powers. I could think music into the air and it would bounce around at right angles. It was fantastic. Then I woke up.
Halfway through editing this book. My soul is weakened. When it's done I shall record until my ears bleed. Let us indeed race, and not be slowed by the gash.

ahh
the end of "summer" is nigh. it's that time of year when it's so hot you gotta either go up into the mountains and swim in the lakes or head to the beach and surf in the ocean - oh wait, i forgot i don't live in California anymore. we had no summer because we all live on an island in the north atlantic. so if you ain't doing GREEN MAN then you should really come to this. For Realz.
the Phantom Paradise nite moves into Mother's Ruin for some friday fuckery on the 15th of August.
Under the new title of Death DJ's RIch and Phil will freak you right the fuck out with choice psych, rock and horror film selections from Istanbul to Brecon to Rio. Consider this an Eastern Block Party. you know what i'm sayin? no? then come get educated. YES! then get in the ruin and shake those hips.
the other me - [aZa]RUMBOT will be hosting this party and occasionally interrupting the flow with his own selections.
please do come

Only 2 days left to go out in proper rock star 27 year old flames. What do you fancy - massive drugs overdose, choking on vomit or drowning in swimming pool? Let me know if I can help. I guess you could always leave it til 40 and get shot before you make any more shit records. Or 45 and do a Freddie Mercury. Or just keep going like Macca and do the shittest jam ever by a once-great band. Just remember, 'John's in Heaven'.
