Gravity Waves and the Spirit World on ResonanceExtra FM, DAB radio or online at extra.resonance.fm/

There will be no Gravity Waves and The Spirit World radio show this month as Resonance Extra is being taken over by the Outlands network to coincide with their Joyous Thing event in Milton Keynes.

We’d recommend listening to the whole thing as there is no doubt that there will be lots of the good stuff.

The February edition of the Spirit of Gravity Radio show is available on the ResonanceFM Mixcloud page:
www.mixcloud.com/resonanceextra/gravity-waves-and-the-spirit-world-february-2022-27th-february-2022/
This edition includes a track from Raeppen that didn’t make it onto the Elliptical Orbits 2 compilation, 2 tracks from the latest SoG release Washing Up Time, plus the usual melange of sounds from the orbit of The Spirit of Gravity.

Thursday 3rd March at the Rossi Bar: Alien Alarms / The Zero Map / Nuclear Whale

Alien Alarms: live generative sequencing and beat chopping
The Zero Map: A cabinet of Victorian toys possessed by the spirit of Sun Ra
Nuclear Whale: Coastal tides inspired Modular set with drones & samples.

Alien Alarms: Trying to sound like a drummer trying to sound like a drum machine someone is trying to make not sound like a drum machine. With the never before heard sounds of DozenCrows’ custom built synth hardware.

The Zero Map: Since 2008 Chloe Wallace and Karl M V Waugh have made psychedelic ambient noise and had fun doing it

Thursday 3rd February at the Rossi Bar: Kieran Mahon / R. Dyer / Martin Chick

Posted on by Spirit of Gravity

The Spirit of Gravity presents KIERAN MAHON / R. DYER / MARTIN CHICK

Kieran Mahon: Drones, loops and modulated sequences.
R. Dyer: Odd songs built from memories and stray kit
Martin Chick: Bleeps and tweaks for the rods and cones in your ears.

Kieran Mahon makes electronic music using a modular synth set up to create drones, loops and heavily modulated sequences. His set for Spirit of Gravity will be an improvised journey into kosmische and psychedelia.

R. Dyer uses saxophone, saw, harp, found sounds, tape samples, looped vocals and synth to create mesmerising baroque pop laced with chaotic improvisation.

Martin Chick – Modular bursts and clusters firing like sonic snipers targeting synaesthetic synapses; a strafe across your cranium  to jerk your limbs to life.

We still don’t have the elektrocreche, but may stream this on FaceBook. If things go to plan.
