£8 per night
£20 3 night pass

PLUS Saturday and Sunday Afternoon at The Friends Meeting House

The Sunday looks pretty sweet. Actually, I would love to see Pengo too, and the Polly Shang Kuan Band are always a real blast.

I'm toying with the idea of going to see a whole bunch of this, but it all depends on money and family stuff. More power to that man Nyoukis for making this happen though.

Hopefully/presumably, as with all the ATP action, most of these bands will do a London show or two as well. I know MV&EE are...

So this is back, already. That it's been a year since my last posts here is dizzying!

why do i know the name dylan nyoukis? is he the ashtray navigations dude?

No, he's the Prick Decay/Decaer Pinga dude. Scottish feller with a shaved head. He's played at No Fun Fest a few times I think.

Done stuff with Alan Bishop and Thurston Moore and whatnot too.

ah ok. i'd love to be there for vco and skullflower

Yeah, out of everything, those are exactly the two things I'd really like to see as well.

where is Tazartes? not that I can go to this, just wondering.

Reines D'Angleterre
(Ghedalia Tazartes / Jo Tanz / él-g)

I'd quite like to see G*Park do his thing. And Rat Bastard is hilarious.

events conspire to make me miss this every year

me too, i never have any holiday left by the time this rolls round. doubly frustrating as i have a friend in brighton happy to offer me free bed and board for the duration.

must admit, this year's line-up is the most obscure (to me) so far. but that's as much of a turn-on as a turn-off.

Have to give this a miss too cos of family stuff. Only things on the bill I'm familiar with are Jozef Van Wissem, Harappian Night Recordings, Anla Courtis, Smack Music 7, Bohman Brothers and the Laundry Room Squelchers.

I lived in Brighton for five years, this whole Brighton noise scene only seemed to take off once I left. There were always interesting gigs being put on though, mostly of roots and Americana under the banner of The Gilded Palace of Sin.

I'm a-going. Don't know much on the bill but rarely do and it's always been great.

this whole Brighton noise scene only seemed to take off once I left

Dylan's been putting shows on here for yonks but a lot of its been a bit under the radar. Kind of lost touch with that scene about 5 years ago, but there were always shows going on in these funny little venues that probably don't exist any more.

Holy fucking shit Dylan was amazing tonight. Really fucking ominous sonics, sub-bass Sunn shit with creepy kids' voices going "where are you Dylan" and similar, as the two main musicians were wandering blindfolded around a pitch black venue. They were trying to find each other using flashes from cameras, which meant every time we took a photo we were complicit in keeping them apart. It was AMAZING.

Haha, I was very drunk when I wrote that. But I'm drunk again now. Today was also pretty great, a couple of duff acts aside. Vinyl Terror and Horror were far and away my favourite - female turntablists are the absolute best.

did you happen to see Darksmith? i was unable to make it, but he was one of the few I was looking forward to. from what i read on twitter, it sounded like he may have had a bit of a meltdown/tantrum.

Ah no, sadly me and the mister had to miss the Friday night as we were DJing elsewhere. I did hear rumours of a meltdown but don't know exactly what happened.

I'm still beaming about Vinyl Terror and Horror.

when I saw Dylan Nyoukis recently there was a stage invasion at the end led by small children who joined him for an encore.

Dylan Nyoukis is funny. I think it was realising that small children (possibly his small children) loved his "music" made me love it too.

Think he's done quite a few children's workshops now where he teaches kids how to make improvised noise music. Not that this is alien concept to them or anything mind.

There were a few kids at the festival, yeah - usually I get pissed off about people bringing their kids along to stuff but it was interesting to see their response to this sort of stuff. Also I think they were probably Nyoukis/Constance children (at least one of them was) so could well have been more jaded experimental/noise gig-goers than me.
