Tonight sees one of their best headliners in...

BRISTOL // SUN ARAW DOUBLE WHAMMY
Lucky Bristol! Two, yes, TWO Sun Araw shows are taking place this week thanks to the two realest musical outposts in the city, the Arnolfini and Qu Junktions. For the uninitiated, Sun Araw is the solo project of Cameron Stallones, founder of stoner slow jammers Magic Lantern. Think sprawling, semi-improvisional psychedelic swamp music and you might be half way there. Evocative at once of...

DUSTIN WONG // INFINITE LOVE
Dustin Wong // Live at The Hideout Solo Guitar Record. Makes you shudder, doesn’t it? As I’m sure many others do, while reading descriptions of music I’ve got a mental shit-list that automatically kicks in when I see particular phrases: Future Garage. Five string bass. Twee. I know its gonna be a bumpy ride when one of these pops up. Solo Guitar Record is as a good a...

SHACKLETON 'MAN ON A STRING PT1 & 2'
Forthcoming Woe To The Septic Heart It’s testament to the all encompassing attitude of dubstep pre-implosion that Shackleton is considered one of the all time pillars of the scene. Whilst its true that his Skull Disco label co-run with Appleblim stands up as one of the most well realised artistic statements related to the world of bass pressure- and indeed, the personnel and geography...

BECOMING REAL // LIKE ME [VIDEO]
We’ve been championing this one for a while now - quite incredible abstract Eski stylings from Becoming Real with Trim on the mic. Their upcoming 12” sees both on firey form, Trim working his usual laconic, perversely humorous side (“We’ve got nothing in common/She had hayfever/So I made her smoke pollen”) while Becoming Real sets off melodic fireworks in the...

CARAVAN // JOURNEYS IN 4/4
Mention Bristol’s current musical landscape to most people and dubstep tends to crop up pretty quickly. It’s unsurprising really, in the sense that the last few years have seen the city’s profile skyrocket, largely off the back of that genre’s expansion. But they’ve also seen some of its original and most celebrated practitioners take further steps away from the original template: Headhunter’s...
