I have a wide and general interest in music and sound. I like to experiment and explore both, always to capture a moment so it can be shared with another...an immersive experience. Always learning, always exploring...sometimes writing songs. I enjoy discovering music in repetition and background ambience.

Late Junction is the flagship experimental music programme on BBC Radio 3 and BBC Sounds, with everything from Russian sound art to free jazz, ancient Japanese court music to Chicago footwork. The festival will feature live versions of the programme’s Collaboration Session, plus a live Late Junction Mixtape for the gathered audience.

MADMOIZEL

After our successful mini tour with her in 2018 we couldn't resist having her back from France with that driving avant-garde coldwave/minimalwave/dance style of hers. Every night a powerful commanding performance that is simply breathtaking. Every audience that experienced the show was stunned. We are utterly delighted to present her London show to you.

Dame Area

If you like the idea of a Spanish Coil, Franco Battiato, Gary Numan, Throbbing Gristle, Joy Division, Suicide, Can or Grauzone with female vocals then you are utterly in luck as this is exactly what you'll be getting. Yet again a powerful slightly disturbing female presence fronts this band with a slightly more punky tinge to their electronics.

Chalk Hill Blue is a record of electronic ruralism channeling lives threaded through the chalk landscapes of Southern England.

Will Burns is Caught by the River poet-in-residence, and Hannah Peel is a frequent fixture of Caught by the River festival stages – both with the ‘cosmic colliery’ electronica of her solo work, and with orchestral place-rock band The Magnetic North (of which Chalk Hill Blue producer Erland Cooper is also a member.)

As part of their collaboration, Burns, Peel and Cooper walked the landscapes around Burns’s Wendover house together: their chalk-heeled boots tracing shared routes through the rhythms and repetitions of the place. What emerges in Chalk Hill Blue is a site-specific-non-specific record of creative place portraiture; an album that traces elements of a living landscape, and reworks them into something that is as sensitive and finely-observed as it is visionary.

Burns’s words and Peel’s sounds – deftly fused by Cooper’s sympathetic production – channel the minute shifts in the air and atmosphere of a place, and their resulting emotional effects. The spoken words and sound worlds on Chalk Hill Blue often seem to emerge from subliminal processes of call and answer; a fertile blurring of collective inspiration and intention circling this abstracted chalk landscape.

Perhaps if Delia Derbyshire’s later years in Cumbria had been happier then a record like this might have emerged from the fells, or alternatively if Virginia Astley’s gardens had contained a modular synth or two. Other triangulation points might include Hans Joachim Roedelius’s bucolic kosmiche reveries, Joanna Brouk’s new age minimalism, or James Yorkston’s ambient spoken word experiments. Like the butterfly with which it shares its name, Chalk Hill Blue is a rare thing: a glorious electric pastoral shimmer.

Michael Rother will celebrate the 40th anniversary of his seminal album Sterntaler with a concert at Under the Bridge in West London on Friday April 5th 2019. Joined by Hans Lampe on drums and Franz Bargmann on guitar, Rother will perform his acclaimed second solo record Sterntaler in full alongside a selection of cuts from his recordings with NEU! and Harmonia.

Solo, a new boxset featuring Rother’s first four solo projects, will be released via Groenland next month.

A member of Kraftwerk in 1971, Rother went on to form NEU! (with Klaus Dinger) and Harmonia (with Hans-Joachim Roedelius and Dieter Moebius of Cluster) before releasing nine solo albums. A key figure of the innovative krautrock music scene that originated from Germany in the early 1970s, Rother’s music has been inspirational for generations of musicians including David Bowie, Brian Eno, Iggy Pop, DEVO, Sonic Youth, Stereolab, U2, Autechre, Radiohead, Primal Scream, John Frusciante and many more.

When the sleazy synth workings of the then-titled Trust first arrived on the scene, it was like opening a dimensional portal into a bizarre shadow universe of sordid, brooding synths.

That universe came courtesy of Canadian electronic musician Robert Alfons and was first served up on his 2012 debut album TRST. Compositions such as ‘Dressed For Space’ and ‘Sulk’ oozed a frenetic energy that bristled with a sinister quality. Along for the ride at the time was Maya Postepski, who later bashed the skins for baroque pop outfit Austra (and who also developed her own solo outing under the guise of Princess Century). This gothic synth-pop approach established Trust as an act to keep an eye on.

2019 sees TR/ST return with two new albums titled Destroyer – 1 and Destroyer – 2. The tracks for the albums were recorded by Alfons in Los Angeles, but also with some sessions in the more rural parts of his native Ontario. The TR/ST frontman describes the first album (due out this April) as “really intense, sort of promiscuous in its sound.” The second album (scheduled for release later in the year) is rumoured to be much darker and in all likelihood tracking much more closely to the material on debut album TRST.

Subliminal Impulse are a collective of artists creating multi media arts events presenting their inaugural electronic music festival in Manchester, 5-6 July 2019.

Carter Tutti

Chris Carter and Cosey Fanni Tutti formed Chris & Cosey out of the ashes of their seminal 70s' Industrial band Throbbing Gristle. Throbbing Gristle (and Carter/Tutti) founded the Industrial music genre and were one of the first bands to successfully fuse electronic and acoustic instrumentation. Their musical legacy is still very much in evidence today.

When Throbbing Gristle was terminated in 1981 Chris Carter and Cosey Fanni Tutti signed to Rough Trade Records and began recording and performing as Chris & Cosey. From the very start they indulgently utilised electronics, sampling, rhythms and Cosey's distinctive vocals, cornet and guitar style. In 1982 (and in collaboration with Rough Trade) they formed their own offshoot record label Conspiracy International (aka: CTI) for their more experimental recordings and collaborative projects. CTI continues to run alongside Carter and Tutti's more accessible work.

The most recent Carter Tutti album was Feral Vapours of the Silver Ether and is has been heaped with praise and rave reviews and is being acclaimed as "their finest yet". Chris Carter and Cosey Fanni Tutti are currently working on a number of collaborations, remixes.

In 2011 Chris Carter and Cosey Fanni Tutti began touring again as Chris & Cosey, while also continuing to perform as Carter Tutti.

The festival will also feature a selection of performances taking place in Northern Quarter over 5th-6th July 2019, including acts such as Marconi Union.
