JULY 17, 2011 – V for VICTORY @ THE BIRD’S NEST
Nick Doyne-Ditmas, Vern Edwards, dj Bpm, Charles Hayward.
Deptford Church Street, SE8 | Admission free | 9PM
NB: We’ll be playing 2 sets starting at 9pm
“The band is playing some of the most enigmatic music I’ve ever been involved with, jumping from ferocious interweaving to playing that is from deep beyond the id, changing focus, tempo and mood suddenly, and then stretching into slowly evolving changes of focus and mood. I’m playing a lot of unusual metres but making them sound like straight fours, which makes whirlpools for the audience to throw their bodies up against. Nick is back with renewed vigour after his accident, we love playing together and its like we appreciate how special the way we play together is, telepathic. Vern Edwards guitar is so deep, it doesn’t try to be anything than what it is, pure sound, very elegant and hypnotic. The addition of Dj Bpm offers us the ability to play beyond the sound, her thing interacts so well with the totality that the music has become a self-organising entity… We’ll play at the Bird’s Nest, an essentially Deptford venue about 400 yards up Deptford Church Street near the roundabout”.
