HUMAN COMBUSTION ENGINE
This process combusts 2 highly respected inventive improvisers from Leeds… Melanie Crowley and Phil Todd. THis event will hear them playing a duel of SYNTHS. Sounds like the throwing forward of Klaus Shulze into a hot pit.

WOMB
This is a very exhilerating emerging band of Manchester! …Womb are fiercely dedicated to the act of expression. Womb’s approach is experimental, often creating music using World and homemade instruments, sculptures and found objects, as well as more conventional instrumentation. Womb employs some elements of structure but is currently centered around free improvisation with passion at its core. The sound is in a state of constant flux, of construction and deconstruction, of unity and of tension. Womb do not sit comfortably in any genre but parallels have been drawn to a range of styles including; noise, punk, no-wave, psych, spacerock, free jazz and drone.
