Mark Ernestus' Ndagga Rhythm Force + O$vmv$m
Basic Channel's dub techno pioneer meets some of Senegal's greatest sabar musicians for a deep, percussive and high-energy live performance - quite possibly one of the best live bands we've seen play at the venue! Their latest record "Khadim" is a stunning reconfiguration of the Ndagga Rhythm Force sound, a style which is more dubwise; prickling with effects and spaciousness, with ambient sounds of Dakar street-life. The music throughout is taut, grooving, complex, like before; but more volatile, intuitive and reaching, with turbulent emotional & spiritual expressivity. "One of the most impressive African bands on the contemporary gig circuit, throwing down live sets known to effortlessly go over 2 hours and propel so many legs and minds to new shapes and feels - trust they slay every time and should be top of all must-see lists." - Boomkat O$VMV$M weave otherworldly sound collages from samples throughout the eras, shot with a smoky dubwise & cinematic sensibility. Coming together through the loose knit radio sessions of Young Echo collective around the early 2010s - their sound evolved from a shared love of grime, soul, rap, b-movies, horror films and dancehall. They have worked extensively with vocalists, producing 2 full length albums for Manonmars, an album with Franco Franco, 2 singles with Rider Shafique, original songs and remixes with Birthmark, Tricky, Jamakabi, BLYY and Bogues plus their most recent mixtape Shroud of Fear 2. Presented by Strange Brew. 14+ event with all under 18s to be accompanied by a 21+ adult (1:1 ratio)
