Soup presents: SALFORD MEDIA CITY, WEȽ∝KER

SOUP presents.. SALFORD MEDIA CITY, WEȽ∝KER. These long time labourers of love craft a heavy wall of noise and distortion penetrate it with horns and organs and with a mass of percussion make the whole thing shake resulting in an irresistibly hypnotic groove. They’ve done it before. They’ll do it again. They really are mercurial though. Don’t let this liquid metal opportunity slip through your gateway fingers. Total jive. Support from WEȽ∝KER.

First Light's Third Space - Martina Bertoni & Guillaume Dujat

Each month, First Light Records invites two artists to take an unplanned journey with a microphone around their city to curate an hour-long mix. Each show will capture the unique sounds of a city from each artist's perspective, through music and found sound.

Manchester / Berlin

The first half of this month's Third Space features Martina Bertoni, an artist who has pricked ears across the music world with her meticulous debut back-to-back releases. Bertoni's heady sonic dive into Berlin includes experimental mainstays, recordings of chanting and morning from Berlin icon Bob Rutman's funeral, along with sounds captured during journeys on the city's s-bahn.

Following on from that is Guillaume Dujat, a Manchester-based artist whose exciting solo material has been put out on First Light Records and who, alongside Joe Beedles, comprises half of computer music whiz kid project, WEȽ∝KER.

We welcome you to explore the sound and music of Manchester and Berlin in our first iteration of Third Space.
