ROBEDOOR are the LA-based psychedelic drone dub duo of Alex and Britt Brown (ex-Pocahaunted, Not Not Fun owner). The band have a large discography of cassettes, CDs and LPs dating back to 2005, which includes releases with labels Not Not Fun, Woodsist and Important Records. This is their first European tour since 2006, and will be performing dark and intimate auditory rituals in support of their recent full length album 'Primal Sphere' (Hands In The Dark Records). Born from what the band describes as “the Spring of 2011’s longform, overdrive circuit-scum maze sessions”, the follow-up to the gorgeous 'Too Down To Die' sounds very much like an intentional regression from the future, a  ripping up of rock roots in order to regain a grip on the ragged sound of drone. Robedoor's artistic vision encompases the apocalypse. Describing 'Primal Sphere' as long undead, they recorded the four dancehall canvases by building a caveman midi and banging duct-taped gongs onto a skeleton of primate, subhuman, industrial noise, faithfully recreating the rich resin waste tones of their sinister transe visions: a massive, dark, dense and hazy wall picturing a cataclysm party under a big dark sun.

SAND CIRCLES aka Martin Herterich records for Not Not Fun, specialising in airy, spiralling ambience, total revelations sounding like Andy Stott fed through a kaleidoscope, sludgy beats and faded chords that in themselves sound like classic Boards of Canada. Sand Circles taps into slowed-down midnight pop a la Glass Candy/Chromatics, narcotic disco jams and treated Motor City strings - all bursting with that rich tape saturation. Sand Circles is touring Europe with close friends Robedoor throughout October.

BEN NASH weaves a tapestry of sound that is as warm and welcoming as it is timeless in character. Vocal drones, singing bowls, motorik loops and epic guitars are all keen elements of his sound; capturing fleeting emotions within his electro-acoustic net. Nash's debut album 'The Seventh Goodbye' (on Aurora Borealis) was a collage of so many layers, patterns and textures, that it became as dazzling as the plummage of the finest peacock in paradise. Musical elements as diverse as folk, raga, Eastern percussion, drone, prog and noise coalesce on the record. Last year he released 'Oh Lordy Me (My Heart Is Wandering Again)' for Blackest Rainbow, a record which saw him drop his guitar and create an entire LP using an iPad with the Tenori-on app. Perhaps an unexpected turn, but then this year has been a pretty interesting one for Ben, returning to playing live after a long hiatus, surprising people by playing live in Sheffield and London for separate sets with Mehdi and Solange from Natural Snow Buildings as a trio. New album, 'The Mineral Victim' is available now also on Blackest Rainbow.
