The Cube & Les Disques Omnison Present:
-
Mon 16 March // 19:00
Tickets: £10
The Cube are excited to bring over a stacked bill of 4 musicians celebrating 5 years of Les Disques Omnison.
Over the last year or so Les Disques Omnison, the Paris based label ran by Tom Val has been steadily churning out some of the best experimental from across the Eurosphere. With influences from all over including kosmiche, 4th world, wonky post-punk, dub, electroacoustic/musique concrete, modern composition, psychedelic waenderings and everything in between, the label has created its own sonic world that has much in line with Bristol's own flourishing experimental music scene.
We are pleased to welcome 4 artists from the label for this special night - Orion Music Workshop, Shelter, Jeanne Gorisse and Oda Fiasco Bravo.
Orion Music Workshop (Tom Val)
Independent child of the new European hybrid music, Orion Music Workshop has been Tom Val's solo project for nearly five years now. His music seems to wander through a maze of distorting mirrors, avoiding the trap of categorization: industrial? anti-synthpop? experimental? Out of time, like watching a dreamachine turn upside down in a megalithic enclosure. Ancient evocations of the flute, detuned synthesizers, pantraditional rituals, fragile improvisations. The filiation with the French experimental musicians of the 70s and 80s (DDAA, Pascal Comelade, come to mind) is never far away, and neither is that with their unclassifiable contemporaries (here and there, we think of Vox Populi, Nina Harker, Radiante Pourpre, la Fureur De Vouivre...), a stage set in the bizarre and DIY Hexagon.
Shelter (Alan Briand)
Shelter is the alias of Alan Briand, Paris-based musician, DJ and artist. Above all, he releases records, more than fifteen since 2016, on the labels Growing Bin, International Feel, Séance Centre, Antinote, Emotional Response, and Les Disques Omnison as well as on his own label Protopost. Shelter plays electronic music tinged with Indian influences, krautrock, ambient and English dub. He operates in an assumed psychedelia, outside of time, where the instruments are symbolic, the chords distended, the improvisation is synthesized.

Jeanne Gorisse
Double bass and electric bass player specialising in improvisation, Jeanne Gorisse uses the bass instruments in all its dimensions and resonances, with a focus on noise music with a real sense of narrative. She has made a name for herself in recent years on the experimental/noise scene in Paris, both as a solo artist and with her various bands Haxo, Valra and Forêt Fantôme, as well as being co-founder of the Syrinx Music label. Her first album, Immersion Libre, was released at the end of 2024 on MMLI. A new record is planned for January 2026 on Les Disques Omnison, with her new solo electric bass project.

Oda Fiasco Bravo (Mathilde Proy)
Oda Fiasco Bravo is the project of Paris-based electroacoustic musician and composer Mathilde Proy, prominent figure in the French experimental scene (she also performs with Jeanne Meronne as Hannah Hajar). With Oda Fiasco Bravo, she crafts a post-dancefloor oratorio of deconstructed bass music and IDM influences, marked by fragmented rhythmics, melancholic undertones and intense, confrontational vocals; a sound echoing Aya, Klein, Pharmakon, early Arca...
