Radio times

Nick Rilke, Founder and lately radio host blagged his way into an early set




Then the worlds finest minimal impact tribute act: minimal effort (no photo I'm afraid: too ugly).



4thirtythree stepped in for a long overdue show.




Finally, a set of great subtlety from Morgan Whetton Jones.

you can't keep a good typo down

I have more pictures which I'll add later.

So this was our festical show featuring top fun from many places.

The elektrocreche kicked the mood off nicely with some chaotic fun.




Then it were Strangers From Birth.


Cranking up the noise levels were Henry Collins taking on the mighty Henry Collins in an earal waxbath made in hell.

Ital Tek cranked out some tunes.

Then Tim Exile


went all improv breakbeat on our asses.


and controlled it all from hisremote joystick.

Before Ceephax bought us back to earth with a great deal of old records.


Here is some video and there is lots more on our myspace page.

the subtlety will out

Somewhere I have a picture from tonight of Bartosz tweaking the code for the _minimalVector software during a performance.

Thats cool for you.

OK we have a feast of noise this month.

And well.

here it is
The king of emodrone - first we have Slow Listener.





On a special and long overdue visit from London its BBBlood!


And with Sound of the Planets 2 its the Spirit of Gravity's very own minimal impact for his first headliner.

Slow Listener Live @ SoG

stay out of the woods

Due to a catastrophic system failure at 10pm the previous night (oh the joys of 'just doing that final tweaking to the set') Rekalix had to withdraw at the last minute, which is a shame as we were really looking forward to his set.



So minimal impact stepped in with a refined minimalist minimal impact set. Not as expansive as the uberdrone of legend, it was an exploration into the detail of what makes him tick. Illuminating.

We're very pleased to have hosted Misha Begley's first live show. A tour de force of Vocoder, distortion, strange loops and abrasive noises crowned with a creepy version of one of my favourite songs (its from "the wicker man", the scariest film ever).

And bringing things to a chaotic and imaginative close was a collaboration between Eastbournes finest and a another group making their debut we had Deepkiss720 featuring Meat Dream. Beyond description as anything that involves Deepkiss720 seems to be it featured home made suits and masks; an electronic mug tree, unplugged leads and all manner of butchered devices.

There is some video, too at the myspace page




Visuals by _minimal vector.

Ghosts and Aliens

I've been told some people are having problems getting the files to play, if you are, try saving them to your machine and playing them from there.

We have a new camera, and a new Minidisk Recorder, so its all gone a bit art this week. The full size picture of Gus in particular is a rare treat, scary powerful stuff.





Gus plays Bass

Thor and Dan process it - a set of results are here.

minimal impact also process Gus and some of their results are here.



Chevron give us a break from strings and plays a silver keyboard, this should have been the first outing for Chevvers new laptop, instead it was (hopefully) the last outing for the old one, poor broken thing, I've never seen a laptop struggle so manfully.



Bela played her Cello and this her new Viol, we were hoping to have a lovely clear shot of it, its quite lovely to look at, oh well.


Bela also played the Saw, and sang, the saw isn't on our recording as we didn't mic it up, but as she was processing her voice we did capture that.
