Artists:

Directing Hand
Alex Nielson and Lavinia Blackwall's mind-blowing free-improv folk duo of drums and voice – hallucinatory ethereal whispers to blistering sonic assault.

Mary Hampton
Haunting and intoxicating, windswept folk - stark but with an enveloping depth. Shimmering, elemental dreamlike songs.

Pthhhh
Beautiful chamber strings, ranging from fragile hints and suggestions to pulsating Hitchcockian chase-scenes.

Bleeding Heart Narrative
A mini-orchestra of strings, drums, electronics, noise, voices and assorted bits and pieces. Emotive recollections of a faded seaside resort.

Daniel Merrill (of Dead Rat Orchestra)
Scattered violin and electronics veering between dissonance and resonance - guttural raspings of intense physicality.

Jecklin
Dreamy caustic improv with double bass, percussion, and more thrown in. Like the soundtrack to a lost Brothers Quay jazz film.

Hurra caine Landcrash
Rural twilight clicks and hums - disorientating, strange and at the same time oddly familiar.

Brassica
Warm, electro-acoustic sketches and dense sonic landscapre. Half-remembered daydreams and echoes of blissful (almost)pop.

Coldstream
Melting glacial drones - the sounds of a deserted underwater city. Brooding soundscapes to sink into.

Grapefruits
Citric yellow fruit.
