We have the illuminatingly i llustrious INNERSTRINGS providing lights and projections.\n\nMIRROR SYSTEM (A-Wave Records) is the downtempo and chill out project of System 7's Ste ve Hillage and Miquette Giraudy.\n\nThe distinctive Mirror System sound is based on deep rolling grooves and the subtle blend of rich dreamy electro nica and guitar. Their successful debut album was released in 2005 and now their style also incorporates a soft minimal techhouse element.\n\nMirror System is 'System 7's chill-out and downtempo sister project' made its li ve debut on the ID Spiral chill-out stage at the UK Sunrise Celebration fe stival in 2006\, followed closely by a set also with ID Spiral at the Glad e Festival of that year. In 2007\, ID Spiral opened the InSpiral Lounge in Camden. London\, and Mirror System played at the opening party on 16 Dece mber 2007. They became one of the resident artists at the InSpiral Lounge playing there two or three times a year\,[16] including most of the inSpir al New Year's Eve parties.[17] Mirror System live also became popular in J apan\, and at European trance festivals where they have been booked as the chill-out stage closing act at Sonica (twice)\, Ozora (three times)[18] a nd Boom Festival\, where in 2016 they followed their closing set with a fu ll-length live rendition of Rainbow Dome Musick. With the Reflector DJ mix album (release in 2009) the Mirror System sound expanded to incorporate a soft techno dance groove element\, and this element has been further deve loped in their most recent album\, N-Port. This ability to seamlessly move from deep chill to danceable grooves that still retain the chill element\ , has been an important factor in the Mirror System live approach.\n\nmirr orsystem.bandcamp.com/music\n\n[embedyt] https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=U csqGmp1Cbs[/embedyt]\n\nThe GLISSANDO GUITAR ORCHESTRA &\; THE SEVEN DR ONES  In the early 80’s Daevid Allen was studying in a Tibetan mystery school in NSW in his homeland of Australia.\n\nHe learnt of many technique s and practices in the fields of meditation and self awareness. It was at this time he started working musically with drones. Continuous pure notes. These being the major notes of the musical scale C through to B. He then realised these can have correspondences firstly to the chakras in the body also to the colour spectrum\, planets etc. E.g C base chakra\, connected to the Earth and the colour red. These then ascend up through the body til l we reach the crown chakra\, colour purple\, note B. By just experiencing these sounds in a receptive state can have the effect of balancing and he aling the individual not to mention the surrounding physical space\, emoti onal and mental space.\n\nIn 2006 in Amsterdam at the Gong union weekend a t the Melkweg there was the first physical manifestation of the Glissando Orchestra playing these seven drones. Daevid felt it was the most importan t performance of the weekend. . . . .maybe it was.\n\nOriginal 7 drones gl issando player and co-curator of the orchestra\, Brian Abbot\, will be joi ned with fellow curator Andy Bole\, along with Kev Hegan and Mark Huxley o f <\;<\;NUKLI>\;>\;\,  Paul Woodbine of Deviant Amps\,  Gregg Mc Kella of Paradise 9\, Jah Buddha aka Bob Hedger\, with Keith Chennery of D eviant Amps conducting.\n\nhttps://youtu.be/9VlQ3FI61co?feature=shared\n\n [embedyt] https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=RQZ0SruqsqU[/embedyt]\n\nDARK ZE N KOLLECTIV are a Zen Experimental\, Acid Drone\, Motorik Kollectiv from t he U.K and France.

In dimly lit Kafeneio\, calloused fingers t aught him the secrets. But Andy’s musical explorations go beyond boundar ies. His spontaneous compositions blend rich sonorities\, glissandos\, and intricate melodies\, creating a unique sonic experience.\n\nwww.andybole .co.uk/\n\n[embedyt] https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=bpsZkv-I9Nk[/embedyt] ATTACH;FMTTYPE=image/jpeg:https://www.lewesconclub.com/wp-content/uploads/ 2024/05/SH2024.jpg END:VEVENT BEGIN:VTIMEZONE TZID:Europe/London X-LIC-LOCATION:Europe/London BEGIN:STANDARD DTSTART:20241027T010000 TZOFFSETFROM:+0100 TZOFFSETTO:+0000 TZNAME:GMT END:STANDARD END:VTIMEZONE END:VCALENDAR
