GIG PREVIEW: Be Nothing Presents: Sun Glitters @ Green Door Store

New young promotions duo Be Nothing are putting on the liquid delicious Sun Glitters in Brighton town in just a few weeks. SHame we never got a sumemr hot enough to match the soporific heaviness the music this bad evokes. maybe turnign up to this gig will give you heatstroke from standing too close to the PA. 



Support comes from Brighton's own F.L.A. - a solo female electronic producer making propulsive dreamy beats, in a similar vein to the more Balearic tracks from Memory Tapes and the lush shimmery beatscapes of Universal Studios Florida.  Check out the F.L.A. Soundcloud for plenty more

Be Nothing are also DJing with Fokkawolfe and Xanadu at new club/live band night Abuse, also at GDS on the 23rd September. Free entry so fill yr brain cells up til they turn grey with a night of red strobe light, witch house, dark wave, technicolour noise and what-not-gaze.

VIDEO: Teehn Bwitches - Wicked Dr (Instrumental edit)

Fokkawolfe steps out of his bloggers seat to take up the directors chair for a second witch house related video. His first was an unofficial clip - a personal ode and illustration for the short Ritualz track Russia Ukraine, but this is his first official video - for the artist Teehn Bwitches.  technicolour gore recalling the likes of horror classics Carrie, Texas Chainsaw Massacre and managing to get some geometry in there too. Looks great.

ViddyWolfe

FokkaWolfe has a new blog posting up music videos called ViddyWolfe, which I think I had a hand in naming. High five Mr Wolfe!  Nice.  Started in December and he already has about 150 videos posted up. Do you know what I say to that? GET A JOB!  Or maybe don't, it will give me something good to do during mine.

Asian Women on the Telephone - Good Night Brighton Witch

Nikita of Asian Women on the Telephone emailed me to give me this track, which they've recorded as a dedication to my city, Brighton in response to all the love me and Fokkawolfe have been showering on them after getting hold of their albums a month or so ago and subsequently freaking out over the whole rich seam of crazy music there is to mine from the Russian underground.

The track they've conjured up is called Good Night Brighton Witch. I think they've nailed us. On a good night this really is what the backstreets of Brighton sound like - fucking hairy, blown out balling freestyled noise with some kind of dirty sexiness going on there even if you've got to pick it up off the pavement before you can properly check it out.  Nikita said the name of this track is actually reminiscent of this song from trashy Russian hair metal band EST called Good Night Brighton Beach. Check it out. It's trashy Russian hair metal.  The third and clearly most important influence in creating this track was A 259 Multiplex Bomb "Outrage" by Simon Strong; a book which takes place in Brighton and Hove in the early nineties, involves a time travelling murder mystery surrounding Jim Morrison, with plenty other musical references littered throughout it's warped narrative. Much like AWOTT themselves.

Nikita says "it's our thanks to you and hello to Brighton. wish to visit it some day. seems like very cool city"

Thanks Nikita. You seem like cool guys, and you have an awesome band. We'd love to have you here too.
