“From Oscar-winning director Giuseppe Tornatore (Cinema Paradiso), Ennio: The Maestro celebrates the life and legacy of the legendary Italian composer Ennio Morricone. Through interviews with directors, screenwriters, musicians, songwriters, critics and collaborators, Tornatore’s documentary retraces the life and works of the cinema’s most popular and prolific 20th century composer - who wrote over 500 scores for film & television and sold over 70 million records - from his cinema debut with Sergio Leone, to winning an Academy Award for The Hateful Eight in 2016.”

“Pitchfork Cafe are returning to Barley Wood Walled Garden in Wrington in May - join us for a collaboration with Small Fire Pizzas in the peaceful, beautiful orchards. We're looking forward to the spring blossom, the on site market garden's organic produce, and the on site grown and manually pressed cider!”

“Taking inspiration from The Raven's unique cocktail menu, encompassing nature, tarot and burlesque, these two hour life drawing sessions are open to all abilities and are relaxed and laid back. Basic materials are provided in the ticket price, as is a welcome drink (alcoholic or non), as well two hours of life drawing, covering a range of poses of varying lengths, starting with two minute poses and ending with longer twenty minute poses.”

“That band was not Dog Unit. But still, it was the beginning of Dog Unit: over the next decade, they played together in deadly serious art-rock bands, self-indulgent jam sessions, and high-concept covers acts, learning to finish each other’s sonic sentences and developing an intuitive mutual understanding — and then in 2019 formed Dog Unit with the best players from the above outfits: James, a drone-dub bass maestro, who claims his minimalist style is due to not knowing many notes, but is actually because of a genius for conciseness, and motorik drummer Lucy, the most reliable timekeeper this side of an atomic clock.”

“Touring the UK playing brand new tracks from their forthcoming album 'Back & Forth' - which is due on Tru Thoughts at the end of May, Nikitch & Kuna Maze are two friends from Grenoble and Brussels who have been going back and forth developing their sound and productions for a number of years now.”
