A Float Records Night
with Eftus Spectun + V.I.
(Thu 5th / 7.30pm / £5)
Float bring forth a packed triple bill of unpure art collective madness.
Catch the nervous New York energy of highly energetic quartet Gang Gang Dance. Their legendary mystical live shows bombard the audience with Middle-Eastern chants, butchered horns, stuttering rhythms, dub inflections, cabaret pianos, and a trainwreck of synths and keys.
This is incredible tape splicing, genre morphing performance that unites lo-tech equipment in invigorating organic sonic meltdown evoking the tribal collectivism of Out Hud, the inspired cacophony of Deerhoof and the primitive melodies of Animal Collective.
Expect a swirling and intense web of new no-wave mayhem, citrus rhythms and nitrous vocals from members of Cranium, White Magic, Angelblood and Neil Michael Hagerty.
Earlier in the evening, smile and a vomit with local heart throbs Eftus Spectun, who deliver a completely new set.
Plus textbook-notated, analogue undulations from textbook basslord V.I.
With Float DJs in the bar.
