Encouraging experimentation and profiling new music as well promoting a free music ethos. Join us!
Experience music and Saturday afternoons in a whole new way.
On Yellow 6:
Raised on punk, Jon Attwood has given up high-tempo, high energy three-chord anger and given himself over to a slow-motion, instrumental dreamland. Heavily reverbed, beautifully distorted guitars gracefully ascend, swoon and dip, freefall towards the earth, then catch themselves again, slowly tracing a complex and epic trail. The background is minimally constructed, often consisting of little more than some programmed beats and perhaps a bit of feedback. These all-instrumental compositions quietly arouse emptiness, void and the likeness of being.
On Epic 45:
Epic45 is, was and always will be a home recording project/collective based round the ideas and inspiration of childhood friends Ben Holton and Rob Glover. As a 'group' epic45 has seen a few different lineups, as people come and go. Occasional forays into studios do occur from time to time, the first EP 'Shorebound' was mainly recorded in 1998 in a small, untidy studio in the attic of an old house in Rugeley! Since then 99% of recording has taken place in various homes as its found to be an overall more satisfying process.
On July Skies:
July Skies is a Midlands (UK) based recording project commenced by Antony Harding in 1997 who have released 4 albums and 2 EPs since 2000. July Skies is also part of the fiercely independent Make Mine Music label collective who have now achieved some 50 releases. July Skies create ‘British Landscape’ music and are heavily inspired by nostalgia and attempt to capture faded innocence and lost times through music and design. The project is often assisted by long time collaborators Benjamin T Holton and Robert Glover from epic45. The Skies have received support from the late John Peel and Rob Da Bank of BBC Radio1, Verity Sharp of BBC Radio3 and Stuart Maconie on BBC Radio6.
