Marriage in heaven

Imagine friends, Professor Genius’ mighty flights of synthetic fancy colliding against Speculator’s dusty psyche twang. Rejoice friends, the soundtrack for your pilgrimage towards the epsilon vanishing point has been finally delivered. Headbang friends, because if our insectoid overlords raided the pantheon of rock gods with berserk zest, they wouldn’t be able to come up with…

Total Eclipse of the Drone

Imagine a square with the image of the skies above as seen from outside the distorting fuzz of our protecting atmosphere. A two dimensional picture of the leftovers of God own party, scraps and crumbs, bubbles and smoke. Add a third dimension and transform this square into a cube which you rotate playful like a…

5am summer

Featuring:

joakim, metronomy & Wavves

photo by Tasha Lutek Two sets of Warriors face off in the distance while you sit back on a dune, the birth of piano-house echoing around in your head.  The sun coming up behind the skeleton of an abandoned pier, casting light over the wet sand.  Surrounded by a few of the good people.  Someone…

Class of 82

(Image by Tommy Boy) Hex is the title track in a Gatto Fritto 12 released last year. I can’t believe more people have picked up on it, there are even some left in Juno. So, I’d advise all of you principled kids out there who like to put your money where your mouth is to…

Listening time

Along the coast of our beloved Brighton & Hove runs a tarmac’d band separating the oft raging sea from the more refined concerns of Victorian terraces and Modernist apartment buildings.  This grey finger stretches out from the rote hedonism of our surviving pier along to the Shoreham Harbour Blues, a few miles to the west. …

Spitgaze haze

In The Einstein Intersection, Samuel R. Delany tells us of planet Earth abandoned by humans and inhabited by an alien race that wander across the forsaken detritus of our mythology, swearing by the Great Rock and Roll and Elvis and Bob Dylan, this is a psychedelic western where prehensile feeted Lo Lobey herds dragons in…

Cannibal Karma

Featuring:

HEALTH & little claw

We have been anticipating this moment for a while: new HEALTH album, ‘Get Color’, which you can pre-order now from always ace Lovepump United. So what does it do? it lures you inside the bedroom, closes the door and hacks at you with razor blades. It pumps you with psychedelic drugs and throws you into…

A Twist at the End

Bernard Fevre’s compositions are a castle of mercury threads laid down by a crystal goliath spider. Bernard Fevre’s compositions are the sound of a shadow tapping on the thin walls of your dreamworld. Bernard Fevre’s compositions are the vertices linking nodes in a conspiracy that ended with several headless corpses washed out in the shores…

Hiya

Hey, hello there, how are you doing? We are fine thank you, feeling slightly apologetic for the lack of updates over the summer, well, you know, it’s the summer, you should be out there in the park chasing around priests in an unhinged carnival of pagan blood and fury, or perhaps laying on some beach…

Never say DIE

Featuring:

cough cool, Mayyors & Mazes

A monster roams the streets of Sacramento, you need not worry much, because it is not primarily the tender flesh of teenagers or the sour spleen of caffeine pumped policemen that it craves, nay, this beast of brutal muscle and solid shadow feeds on broken glasses and abandoned tires, and drinks from rancid pools of…
