   About The Drumlake Experiment
Media Player Plug In Thing By Viralsound.com


In the late seventies, when all sorts of quacks were trying all sorts of different crap to try and psychoanalyse the nation’s youth, two young brothers with a history of audio crime and substance abuse were put forward by their now missing parents for a very cutting edge experiment in The Drumlake School, Hampshire, England. The ethos of this irresponsibly revolutionary school was to let children find their own level of drug intake, for the best and strongest drugs to be readily available in the hope that they would just ‘get a bit bored with it’.

When the government closed the project in the early eighties the brothers were parted, largely thanks to a particularly strong batch of acid that had surfaced a week earlier. It is thought Jon, believed to be around 10 at the time, fled to mainland Europe where he lived the luxurious existence of a travelling monkey salesman. Jamie, thought be around the age of seven at the schools closing, was recruited for a government ‘black project’ which he has absolutely no recollection of, there are several ‘trigger words’ that can him send off for days at a time and upon his return he has little or no explanation of his whereabouts.

Cut to just after the millennium and by a strange twist of fate Jon and Jamie both return to their hometown in North Wales , neither even aware he has a brother. They meet by chance one night in a local drinking hovel, they instantly recognise each other through all the drugs, government mind control and drugs. The obvious thing they thought of doing was banding together with a like minded bunch of cunts and getting themselves a big house to live in.

With house acquired and Christmas just around the corner Jon decided to go and find Dad and ask him to ask Santa for a sampler, Jamie asked for, and got, a SNES.

Jon and Jamie locked themselves away and set about experimenting with the sampler and Our First Computer, after a few months the vibrations had seeped out through the matrix enough for the Drumlake boys to have been heard in Liverpool and the lads from Disted Twisco offered Jamie and Jonny a live set, although they couldn’t decide on Jamie and Jonny or Jonny and Jamie, so the Drumlake Experiment was born. Plus the name Quiverpidgeon was a bit shit.

This is what the boys have to say about themselves

Hi We are The Drugcake Excrement. We are like music. .I am Jon and my brother is Jamie. We first got playstation wif music 2000 and made tunes and with tunes made songs. Then me and Jamie told r parents that we want a sampler. Then after much talk we decidered santa could afford it and broght it us.

We started to sneek out and play gigs at night bein stowaways on trains to Liverpool and other strange towns with beer and drugs

I am ten and my bruther is six we have been playing with music for lots of years and u want you to hear some of it.

This is the Launch Show in North Wales for the Ep BYDD WYCH...

I will be performing with a full band for the first time in Wrecsam & am very exited about this show...

Melody driven songs with experimental elements & unconventional instrumentation such as the African Karrimba, a box filled with gravel and singing wine glasses. Layered orchestration and innovative approach to song writing creates an individual style & sound engaging audiences with an exciting & unmissable live performance.

Recent solo shows have been met by a listening silence and very enthusiastic responses & reviews.

So don’t miss these shows!!!

I am very happy to announce that The Guest Performance for this show will come from The Gentle Good...

The Gentle Good is also known as Cardiff born Gareth Bonello, a Welsh folk singer and songwriter. His honest and tender vocals are well matched to an intricate guitar style that owes much to the great guitarists of the 60s folk revival. A dedicated multi-instrumentalist his recordings are layered with subtle string arrangements as well as banjos, mandolins and glockenspiels.

Myspace.com/gentlegood

Local Art Work will be shown at this show by the very talented Erica Taylor...

We will have Craft Stalls from the amazingly creative Sophie Jacobsen & Sian

& for the first time ever you will be able to get you hands then ears on the EP Bydd Wych…

This is going to be a fierce show...

Hope to see you there...
