   About The Noise Upstairs
The Noise Upstairs - An evening of uncomposed sounds.

A free improvising jam night combining our backgrounds in jazz, contemporary classical and electroacoustic music. In order to create a totally democratic evening, here's what happens; if you want to play, put your name in a hat at the start of the night, ensembles are then created at random by pulling three names out at once, these three players improvise for about 10 mins.

The nights so far have proved great fun and have been well attended, so make sure you arrive on time and put your name in the hat early if you want to play!

Thanks to Safehouse Brighton for the inspiration behind these jam nights. And Emily Dean for flyer design, and big up to David Kennnedy for poster design. Big thanks also to Alexander Rennie for the Noise Upstairs logo design.

Grouper (US) has her latest – Dragging A Dead Deer Up A Hill – of three albums on Type Records. She has also been involved in collaborative releases, contributing a track to Xiu Xiu’s Remixed & Covered and four tracks to a split release with Inca Ore. Her other contemporaries are Belong, Growing, Tim Hecker, Windy & Carl and Atlas Sound.

Jasper TX (Sweden), with a hefty back-catalogue of releases on labels such as Miasmah, and collaborations with buddy Machinefabriek, is an essential domestic appliance in the household of conceptual music. He is comparable to artists Fennesz, Sigur Ros, Múm and Tape.

Intricate and atmospheric songsmith, Danny Saul (UK) performs with different combinations of musicians, making each gig a unique event. His forthcoming release is "Harsh, Final", and he also performs with Greg Haines as Liondialer.

Fieldhead (UK) music delights in tape hiss, bleak landscapes and decaying analogue loops. He is also a member of The Declining Winter and Glissando. His debut album, "They Shook Hands for Hours" is released soon on Home Assembly.

Trespassers William (Seattle, US) are the duo of Matt Brown and Anna-Lynne Williams. "Subliminally sublime and pragmatically perfect, you would have to possess an ashtray for a heart not to feel this coursing through your soul" (DSD Music Magazine). A new EP, The Natural Order of Things, is set to be released on Gizeh Records. They will make a church performance with special guests.

Glissando (Sheffield, UK) “have the kind of atmosphere that can captivate and relax in equal measure- never before has tranquillity sounded so urgent. While track lengths of over 10 minutes may fail to hold the attention of the ADHD sufferers among us, with patience it plays like a majestic dream. And it's one you'll never want to wake up from." NME

Operations (Chris Anderson) is a Manchester based conceptual music producer and sound artist. He performs and records with an array of analog synths and effects, reel-to-reel tape and casette players, and guitars. Followers of Tim Hecker, Slowdive, Fennesz, Godspeed You! Black Emperor, Stephen O'Malley, Type and 12K Records will surely nod in approval.

Come and watch Le Tour with others to make the nail biting atmosphere of
the final two stages even more intense!!

I have persuaded the Lass O Gowrie pub to let us use the upstairs bar to
watch Le Tour on

Saturday 25th July for the Ventoux Stage

And on

Sunday 24th July for the final stage to Champs Elysess

Come to the pub from noon til 5pm on both days to watch the action LIVE
and socialise with other cycling fans too.

It will be free to come in and the Lass will have their usual supply of
fine CAMRA award winning ale selection and food to keep you going
throughout.

On Saturday, after the race has finished we shall go for a 40-50 mile
**twilight ride** from the pub out to Cheshire and up the Wizard. Not
quite the Ventoux but a hill with a great view. Meet at 5pm outside the
pub

**In order for me to know which room to use I need you to RSVP to
info@ibikemcr.org.uk if you are coming on either or both days. (there are
different rooms with different capacities and it will be a right arse if
we have to change to the bigger room half way through, but the atmos might
be a bit lost if we're in a huge room with only a few of us, so please let
me know ASAP)**

oh and, not only can we all watch the tense and WELL exciting last stages
but we can play the new drinking game I invented: every time sean kelly
says "certaintly" we drink a shot! ace.

EVERYONE WELCOME!

FREE ENTRY!

Love nes
