What's On Wednesday 9th October in Bristol

Events on Wednesday 9th October

“A new project combining the talents of two of the finest producers of noise out there. Eric Quach (THISQUIETARMY, etc)'s looping layers of instrumentation give their music an ominous air but with the drumming of GODSPEED YOU! BLACK EMPEROR and EXHAUST's Aidan Girt sitting underneath it, their music has a familiarity that's hard to shake even when hearing it for the first time. Industrial landscapes flicker before your mind's eye and crumble again, and tension stretches time to the point where you're not quite sure how long you've been listening.”

Dan will be playing stride piano and early swing from the 30s and 40s inspired by the likes of Teddy Wilson and Fats Waller. He will normally be seen playing in many early jazz era bands around Bristol including The Old Malthouse Jazz Band and the Kitchen Syncopaters as well as in his hip-hop/jazz originals project Phantom Ensemble.”

“The story of La Perla is the one of women artists, disciples of the musical tradition of the Colombian Caribbean, who met during the last decade, to cultivate, harvest and share a cultural heritage, confluent in spaces of innovation, to the point of producing an original sound with a very singular attitude and charisma.”

“Born and raised in São Paulo, Brazil and having already dedicated over fourteen years to his musical career, Urbandawn is currently taking the drum and bass scene by storm. Having first released music on Hospital Records in 2012, he has been repeatedly producing huge tunes, most recently producing one of the songs of the summer, the remix of the infamous "Come Together" by The Beatles. Heard at all major festivals and events in recent months, being supported by DJs such as Andy C, Shy FX and many more, this is definitely not a set that you want to miss...”
