PAVLOV'S CHILDREN (London)
www.facebook.com/pavlovschildren

Pavlov's Children features hypnotic trance-inducing synthetic patterns, minimal rhythm sequences, power tools and tape loops, interjected with distant repetitive vocals.

NÓI KABÁT

London based electronic outfit Nói Kabát draw on inspiration from constructivism, futurism, 70s science fiction, and noise theory to create a sound reminiscent of the early industrial pioneers. They combine noise from their environment with the sounds of esoteric electronic drums and analogue keyboards in an attempt to create an authentic yet newly reconfigured sound. Their electronic repertoire harks to a new and obscured age, vocals acting as counter-point to that of their machines.

MONSTER ISLAND

"Like popular music but not popular." Local three-piece creating discordant and grumpy post-punk sounds topped off with some biting social commentary. In the great Mancunian tradition but with plenty of fresh ideas and quality musicianship.

First band at 22:00.

Plus guest DJ Jiyah Kelly, also known as the experimental artist Bess Keloid and a member of the improv noise act Barbarians.
