We had a whale of a time at Shacklewell Arms last night - with Husband, Blue on Blue and Hipdiebattery, and Anthony on the decks, as well as the excellent Beach Creep DJs afterwards!
If you missed Husband, I have some good news for you - they are playing once more in London, on Thursday, April 26 at Catch for Ward Magazine, together with Torches and Wanderlings!
Today though we are headed to Reading for a start for a gig at the Oakford Social Club - any friends around there? Come by and say hi!
New single from Husband: Dear Down - was premièred earlier today via The Line Of Best Fit, and gives us a glimpse on how the album will sound like, which should drop around September time..
For now, make sure to come see them live on their 4 UK Dates:
Fostercare unfortunately can’t come to Europe anymore.
Therefore we made the following changes to the upcoming mini UK Tour:
April 20 - Line-up now Husband, Blue on Blue, Hipdiebattery at Shacklewell Arms, FREE ENTRY!
April 24 - we added Brightonite Woodpecker Wooliams to the line-up (eagle-eyed people might have figured out that we got a releasein the pipeline with her!). She will perform her very special brand of de-constructed electronic folk music.
Full line-up now reads Husband, Woodpecker Wooliams, Blue on Blue, Hipdiebattery, at Sticky Mikes Frog Bar Brighton, £4 Adv.
FREE ENTRY this Saturday at the new installment of WH LND Club Night, this time at the Marquis of Landsdowne, 48 Stoke Newington Rd, London, Greater London N16 7XJ
Drinks are cheap so no excuse to not come!
Fostercare - Altered Creature
Coming in April 2012, the full-length LP will come on heavy weight vinyl with download code, CD and Digital Download, and feature the front-cover artwork as pictured above. Pre-order will be going up on Monday next week.
As a taster, check out the stream of the first track “The Empire Will Drain U”, resembling Suicide, Nitzer Ebb and Simple Minds according to The Quietus
Also, Robot Elephant Records is going to host a release party with Fostercare himself being back in London after his short stint in December 2010, and support coming from London’s very own Blue on Blue, and the UK debut of Hipdiebattery (Bucharest / Romania), plus a very special yet unannounced secret guest, in the premises of the Shacklewell Arms. Tickets are £5, available over here.
UNISON - The Nest, London, Friday December 2nd
Support: Blue on Blue, Long x DJs
Some remotely RER related thing happening this Friday - the UK debut show of UNISON!
UNISON are one of the best bands out there that ever graced the “Witch House” label. They are actually a proper band, and have been touring up and down France and Europe in the past. Releasing their debut long player earlier this year, it’s now finally time to get them playing in London!
Support comes from London’s very own noise pop duo and RER favourites Blue on Blue - who recently released their critically acclaimed debut EP on Tip Top Records.
The Church of Synth - Catch - 16.11.2011 with Blue on Blue, Pavlovs Children.
A last minute confirmation, the Church of Synth will play another London gig in the heart of Shoreditch - the Catch, together with another Robot Elephant favourite Blue on Blue, and minimal synth hypnagogues Pavlovs Children! Doors are 8 with a measly 3 pound before 10, and £5 afterwards.
Robot Elephant Records DJing at the launch night of London’s first Witch House Club Night - WHLND, upcoming Friday, July 15th!
This new clubnight is taking place at Vogue Fabrics, Dalston, and will run from 9pm to 4am. Fittingly, the venue is small, dark and obscure – the sound system is excellent!
It was conceived by /\dam (Cold In Berlin) and ••∆•• (Shadowofseven) Simply called ‘W’, this club night will cater for those who are interested in the dark, ethereal, visual, chopped and screwed genre (known commonly as Witch House) and will feature DJs at the very forefront of this new and mysterious scene.
It will feature a live performance of a new band called ••∆•• , and DJ Sets by Story of Isaac and Elektritter (Robot Elephant Records).
Admission is £4 before 11pm and £5 all night afterwards.
