Lush textures through unexpectedly contemporary sounding kosmiche” - The Wire
The Utopia Strong are a UK-based electronic trio creating The Utopia Strong are an exploratory electronic trio whose music blends kosmische, psychedelic electronics, dub and abstract synthesis into immersive, mind-altering sound worlds. Built around improvisation, analogue and modular synths, and a strong sense of serendipity, their work feels simultaneously playful, intense and transportive—music designed to take listeners somewhere else entirely.
With their third album Doperider, the band push deeper into surreal and emotional territory, drawing inspiration from comic art, cosmic philosophy and avant-garde electronica. The result is richly detailed, widescreen music that can feel euphoric, unsettling or blissfully hypnotic—often all at once.
Live, The Utopia Strong offer a fully immersive experience that many describe as psychedelic in effect, without the chemical side-effects.
Featuring Kavus Torabi, Steve Davis and Michael J. York.
BRUISE BLOOD
Bruise Blood is artist and musician Mike Bourne, founder member of Teeth of the Sea and Hirvikolari.
Bruise Blood channels the frequencies of forgotten epochs and future crimes into a singular, dissonant hymn.
