Nebulullaby Launch

UPDATE my set diff-cast is online to read/listen.

I'll be playing live with clive at the launch party for the Nebulullaby compilation. Saturday April 23rd 2016 from 4pm til late at Apiary Studios, 458 Hackney Road, London E2 9EG.

Press release:

Nebulullaby An Interstellar Cloud of Dust is a compilation that takes the lullaby genre into the realm of experimental electronic music, assembled from an open call for experimental lullabies launched in May 2014.

The compilation includes tracks by well-known artists as well as first releases, with material on vinyl from d.R.e.G.S, 0xA, xname, Erich Barganier and Samuel Hertz and an expanded digital edition containing tracks from Thor Magnusson, Robert B. Lisek, Repl Electric, Claude Heiland-Allen, Marta Zapparoli and more hand-picked gems from the experimental techno, noise and electroacoustic scenes.

The record guides the listener through eerily echoed music boxes to experiments in a syncopated 8-bit berceuse, with detours into clean planes of glassy textures, dives into opaque amniotic drones and concentrated, tender yet ominous moments, such as the sound of beating hearts against saturated, distant washes of feedback. Composed for Nintendo, Atari, Pure Data, Supercollider, D-Box, tape recorders, as well as ultraStethoscopes or using radioactive materials, these recordings treat the lullaby genre as an example of consciousness-altering music.

Nebularosa is a new London-based record label publishing experimental noise, techno, industrial and algorithmic electronic music that challenges the established modes of music production, releasing music in vinyl and digital download.

Available for pre-order via nebularosa.bandcamp.com from 13th April 2016 Vinyl release 23rd April 2016 + release party and performances at Apiary Studios, Hackney Digital release 1st May 2016

Her live compositions transform light and other electromagnetic frequencies in sound waves through self built synthetisers and complex semi chaotic machines. Breaking open the circuit, she will magnetise you into an hypnotic and synaesthetic noise-techno illusion.

Zoë Darling now lives and works in Switzerland developing her work as a performer influenced by Butoh dance and her Dad lives in Hertfordshire and teaches children music. They will make an interactive adaptation of the piece "Lullaby for insomniac parents".

Nebula

With her taste for syncopated rhythms, noise and repetitive melodies, she will transfrom the room in a surreal carillon. Sounding objects, microphones, ultrasthetoscopes along with her deep voice, you won't forget this performance easily. Debut of the youngest talent in town.

Alo Allik

Esoteric coder and composer, he calls noisefunk his attempt to depart from repetitive musical structures of most electronic dance musics, injecting chaos within order or order within chaos.
