Headfirst Editor's Pick
"You never know quite what to expect from a Laurel Halo set, which makes her return to Bristol all the more exciting. The Hyperdub pioneer’s selections traverse everything from mutoid electronics and warped experimentalism to Detroit techno, baile funk, 80s German electro-pop and then some. "

A clubnight held at Strange Brew on Saturday 1st October. The event starts at 22:00.
Laurel Halo (2hr DJ Set)
(Hyperdub / NTS / Livity Sound)
Laurel’s been a PTS bucket-list booking for a while now - her wide-ranging selections and anything-goes spirit can see her be as likely to drop a Principé Records track as she is one from Whitney Houston, or Moritz von Oswald. It’s the kind of freeform and iconoclastic approach that we crave, and after absolutely tearing the roof off of her last two Bristol performances (Timedance 2018, Livity Sound 2019) - all heads are turned firmly to the Brew to see what she brings in 2022.
FFO: Batu, Holly Herndon, Lee Gamble, Juliana Huxtable
Support (12-1) comes in the form of our very own k means, who herself has been known to run the gamut from footwork to musique-concrète. She’s been smashing it up and down the country recently, and we can’t wait to have her back in the booth :)). The first two hours of the show will focus on live performances, with the angelic cyber-ambient of Aphelion’s live set merging into the “blisscore” vocal stylings of VRGF in the second hour. They collaborate with generative audio-visual artist aevi.av.
