DOG CHOCOLATE
sound like a crowded room but are actually four individuals from
London. Having played in many other bands including Yeborobo, Limn and
Gasp! Cracking Eggs, united they recognise Dog Chocolate as their one
true love. Abandoning notions of elegance, cred and professionalism they
embrace the ramshackle, instant and fun, capturing a vivid spontaneity
with their music. ‘Snack Fans’ is the band’s debut album, released on
March 18th by Upset The Rhythm. In just over 25 minutes the band
gleefully assemble a roller-skate of sound held together with sellotape
and blu-tac, just robust enough to reach it’s destination as it’s
chucked downhill. It’s an album packed with ideas and momentum, no need
to set the table, Dog Chocolate are in a rush. If ‘Snack Fans’ doesn't
satisfy your appetite then you’ll need to fix yourself a feast or
something.
RÓISÍN AND CHIARA’s
routine is as funny as it is bizarre. Whether singing a hymn to Nick
Grimshaw, pretending to be breastfeeding babies or giving sage advice as
celtic mystics, Róisín and Chiara are consistently hilarious. They move
with such rampant pace from one segment to another that the audience
cannot help but get caught up in the proceedings: even if you’re not a
fan of absurdist comedy, you'll find it hard not to enjoy their
infectious energy.
PRIVATE TROUSERS
are playing the long game, one step at a time. Variously regarded as a
breath of fresh air and an awful business, PT use self-made instruments
to make lairy lullabies for the happy-sad, yes you.
DJ EGGS LEGS’ tropical omelete includes Highlife, Afro funk, soukous, makossa, samba, mambo, shangaan and many more.

New show announced for EARTHEATER, GABRIEL SALOMAN and COMMON EIDER, KING EIDER
Upset The Rhythm
presents…
EARTHEATER
GABRIEL SALOMAN
COMMON EIDER, KING EIDER
Saturday 25 June

EARTHEATER is Alexandra Drewchin, a New York based musician
and artist who seeks on a daily basis to upgrade her mental software. Also
known for her shamanic performances fronting Guardian
Alien, Eartheater is Drewchin’s unshackled solo vessel, a deliberate
distillation of voice, synths, guitar, and electronic production techniques
into short-form compositions teeming with crystalline details. At any given
moment, an Eartheater composition reads somewhere between a folk song, a
musique concrète collage, and a filmic suite fit to soundtrack a cosmic montage
that only she can imagine in full detail. Her intricate ballad arrangements
rise from standing pools of hi-fidelity synthesis, while her dynamic vocal
performances span an untold number of tactics and tonalities. Drewchin builds
layered electronic productions possessed of enough detail to constitute
stand-alone worlds, each weighted thick with text and texture. October
2015 saw the release of her second album in the same year on Hausu
Mountain, ‘RIP Chrysalis’.
GABRIEL SALOMAN is a Vancouver based musician and artist who has been
performing experimental, conceptual and freely improvised music for over 15
years. He is best known for his work as half of Yellow Swans and currently
composes and performs solo as GMS and Sade Sade. His music investigates
temporal abstractions, conceptual sound and gestural noise. There is a parallel
concern with sound art as both liberating practice and praxis. In recent
performances and recordings Saloman’s music has been composed of percussion,
tapes, mixer-feedback, guitar, keyboards, piano and voice. In particular
Saloman has explored the use of found sound, field recordings, percussion and
processed blank cassettes.
COMMON EIDER, KING EIDER has always been an enigmatic
project, marching to the beat of its own tribal drum and operating on the
fringes of an already fringe scene—one that finds comfort in sweeping drones,
stirring neofolk, field recordings, and pastoral near-silence. This endeavor
(the collective effort of Rob Risk, Blaine
Todd, and Andrew Weathers) bends noise and feedback
to his will, smoothing out harsh edges into something soothing, gentle, and
quite lovely; nature infuses every note and every pause, and that the
project's latest album, ‘Unhuulda’, has a heavy environmental focus and
its five movements sound like a dark forest evening is no
coincidence. ‘Unhuulda’ is the latest offering from Common Eider King
Eider's own imprint, Caribou People. It comes with a handmade book of poetry,
printed with metallic gold ink on blood red 100% recycled paper.

Dog Chocolate - 'Bent Wire Situation' VIDEO!
Just premiered on the always great Louder Than War! Check it out, it's very special!
Here's some context from Andrew of Dog Chocolate too!
Here's some context from Andrew of Dog Chocolate too!
"The song's about that
moment of coming to, 4 hours after getting in from work and you've
still got your shoes on, you're sitting in the dark, there's no food in
the house, you've got a headache and you're expertly holding the
decrepit power cable to the laptop in just the right position to keep
yourself in that same situation for another 4 hours. It's about
non-specific bad vibes intrinsically linked to the inanimate objects
we've surrounded ourselves with.
The video shows one
character played by 15 people. It's an attempt at a personification of a
true unwordable bent wire situation."
