Alt Vinyl 20 Years Celebration - :Zoviet*France, Richard Dawson, brb voicecoil and Nev Clay with Stagger Lee, Jazzfinger and Alt Vinyl DJs

alt.vinyl presents…
20 years of alt.vinyl since that first release of Volcano the Bear on 8” lathe in 2006. 73 releases later we are still active on Bandcamp. Tonight’s line up features four of the label’s major artists and good friends – :zoviet*france:, Richard Dawson, brb>voicecoil and (on the decks) Jazzfinger Soundsystem. Completing the line up is the wonderful Nev Clay, the spiritual beating heart of the North East and, I’m pleased to say, another close friend.
:zoviet*france: >> North East based sound artists, industrial pioneers, film soundtrackers and ambient electronic specialists Ben Ponton and Mark Warren bring their esoteric sonic manipulations to the Lubber. ZF Releases such as 7.10.12, joint releases such as Patina Pooling with Fossil Aerosol Mining Project, and the solo Atom Earth Mother release resulted in frostbite inducing hikes in the Cheviots, fire based fever dreams of burning pyres, much bending of steel and more box set building than I care to recall. Whether amplified or acoustic they are a live powerhouse to be savoured >> soundcloud.com/zoviet-france
Richard Dawson >> A core part of the alt.vinyl story since the shop opening in 2004, also as a solo artist and as part of Hen Ogledd on the alt.vinyl label. No longer the North East’s best kept secret he now straddles the globe with his singular sharply observed songcraft. I’m not sure I’d still subscribe to the John Martyn meet Captain Beefheart description but his music is always evolving, ever more complex and bewitching and he remains a hugely powerful live performer >> https://richarddawson.net/
brb>voicecoil >> Sampling the sounds of the spaces all around us and creating rich and challenging sonic landscapes has been Kev Wilkinson aka brb>voicecoil’s mission for decades now and he has been part of the alt.vinyl family since his 2011 ‘these are not our borders’ lathe release >> https://soundcloud.com/brb-voicecoil
Nev Clay >> Nev is a retired mental health nurse and fingerpicker. A frustrated heavy metal guitarist, he was introduced to DADGAD tuning by Mark Hollis, once supported Keith Emerson out of ELP, and was kicked in the face (accidentally) by Nick Cave >> https://nevclay.bandcamp.com/
