THE JONNY HALIFAX INVOCATION (London) is a primitivist free blues outsider, sonic shaman of the acid fuzzed lap steel guitar, demented blower of the howling harmonica of doom. His new band project now combines avant swamp blues heaviosity with kosmic free jazz experimentalism in a fluid collective of godless raag brut improvisations - sonic visions of an hallucinatory apocalyptic near future.

Empty Cut
Empty Cut are Douglas Fielding-Smith and Robert Bollard, who started making music in the late 80’s in a hardcore band called McMingo Juice. After the break up of this band they both went on separate musical journeys. Robert followed the path of electronic music working and releasing under a number of monikers, Pemalas, ‘MA’ (experimental seafood records) Damrai Vent (open case recordings) and By Bizarre Hands. Meanwhile Doug carried on drumming and releasing records with a number of bands, Marker, Una Corda and Backwards to name a few.
After two decades on their own musical pathways they decided to join forces again, this time incorporating the influences of the last 20 years, first as Squalor Fan and then transforming into Empty Cut in 2020.
Mixing together drums, bass, samples, effects and vocals they have created a sound that incorporates punk, hardcore, electronica, jazz, drum’n’bass, experimental-industrial and shoegaze.
They now release their debut album ‘Allens Cross'. Inspired by their childhood growing up in Birmingham they blend together all their experience and inspirations to create a noise that holds a heavy solid groove mixed with harsh noise and fuzzed out reverbed bass, topped with psychedelic synths, and chopped and screwed vocals.

BUSHISM (Birmingham) Make a cloud of textured space-rock-drone-funk with hazy layers of sounds shuffling in and out of each other. Head-music to drift away too.
