MOON UNIT

Moon Unit have toured the UK and Europe, sharing bills with the likes of Mogwai, Neu, Faust, Circle, Part Chimp, Grouper, Errors, Hair Police and many more.

Formed around the end of 2009 in Glasgow, set out to create telepathic improvised high energy music. They have continually aimed for something original, whilst remaining unmistakably influenced by a blend of musical styles from psychedelic rock to krautrock and kosmische via experimental noise and drone.

To date they have released two LPs - "New Sky Dragon" on Krayon Recordings and "Hell Horse and Heady Stratus" on Blackest Rainbow Records. They also made an appearance on the recent "Celebrity Come Down With Me" remix album on Rock Action Records, re-imagining the Errors track "Beards".

Moon Unit consists of:

Ruaraidh Sanachan - guitar. Also active as Nackt Insecten and in Pyramidion, Eye Shaking Kingdom, Opaque and more.

Andreas Jonsson - keyboards. Also active as Single Helix and in Lanterns and Pyramidion.

Peter Kelly - drums. Has played with a long list of bands including Galchen, Union of Knives, Cheeky Penis, Sexy Entourage, Damo Suzuki's Network and many more.

"Glasgows Moon Unit strikes gold with its sensational second LP HELL HORSE & HEADY STRATUS... Phew! Like a Pancho Villa cavalry assault, these supermad Moon Unit c**ts sling together some of the greatest and most perpetually unfolding jams in a long while."

- Julian Cope, Head Heritage

SCRIM

Scrim are girl/guy duo of Ash Reid & Graham Stewart. Critical exponents and arbiters of taste in the Edinburgh to Glasgow free & experimental music scene with the likes of Wounded Knee, Usurper & Nackt Insecten. Synth & analogue diy electronics provide the backbone to their disciplined and punctual audio squalls. Total body control, leaving you hanging, aching for more. Check out Piped-In From Head Office Records and the Winners Don't Shiver nights in Edinburgh.

PATRICK MACAULEY KEENAN

Classically trained musician, PhD student in composition and gifted on an enviable number of instruments, PMK is rolling out a new solo project which involves guitar and live electronics with crystaline production standards. I'm sure he won't mind me drawing comparisons to the territory of the record labels Raster Noton, Mego & Touch and artists such as Alva Noto, Ryuichi Sakamoto & Ryoji Ikeda. Looking forward to some full audio releases in the near future...

MATRICARIANS + GUESTS IN SOUNDCLASH

Psych folk & soundworlds from the duo of Alan Davidson (Kitchen Cynics) & David Mackay with some guest players [TBC] invited in for a psychedelic ride and throw in spanners.
