Event information
Giulio Erasmus’s music swirls into unintelligible mutterings, songs, and collapsing collages, all made with the idea of keeping things simple. It is post-punk p-funk, pre-post dub. It is a kind of proto-music that delves into post-punk’s past and confronts it with new ideas of abstraction, space, and effectiveness. Between alienating and concrete, making the hiss of plugged instruments a central part of it all, Erasmus uses crude field recordings, voice samples, and descriptive and contemplative lyrics to great effect, reversing musical logic as melody and rhythm confusedly spiral around them.
Yexxen played live for the first time in October 2024 and already might be the most exciting din in the biz for punk jazz masochists. Transmitting from Berlin, they’ve got a brace of Argentinians with jazz/improv bona fides – baritone saxophonist Sofia Salvo and bassist Guido Kohn – plus, on lapsteel and drums respectively, Claire Nico, a Canadian who smashed SN24 as part of Cuntroaches, and Leeds cat Bobby Glew of Guttersnipe and Nape Neck. Exposure to Yexxen’s deranged, freeform noisejazz tornado may well have you concluding these lot were born to play together.
<3 is a collaboration between Lene Tassin de Montaigu (Downgraded/Lene Otis Finn) and Déas McMorrow (Tarantula) with a focus on prose by Déas and instrumentation from Lene. Handmade harp homemade text.
