I’ve just released the first of several cassettes on my Infinite Illectrik label – Graham Dunning and myself playing at Robin the Fog‘s Fogfest in 2023 alongside several unheard rehearsal jams. For those not familiar with these kind of sets, we’re using modified turntables to build up soundscapes and rhythms using locked groove records that loop, FX and in Graham’s case, all manner of sounds triggered by his stacked turntable assemblage. Everything is improvised, a live set that sits partway between DJing and hardware performance, plus you can dance to it.
‘E-x-t-e-n-d-e-d Turntablism Vol.1’ is limited to 50 copies, totals 73 mins and comes with a full colour foldout mini-zine insert. I’m looking at several gig options this summer and there will be several more cassette releases this year from Duplokit, a collab with Furrowed, a label compilation and a second volume of ‘Extended Turntablism’.
Digital is also available and it’s Bandcamp Friday tomorrow so if you’re going to go for one then maybe stick it in your basket and wait until after 8am tomorrow?
If you want to witness Graham in the flesh with his Mechanical Techno set up, he’s playing at the new Iklectik site in the Peckham Levels in March via Baba Yaga’s Hut. Tickets are only £10 too!
