"Essential outing for fans of haywire and high-wired industrial noise and distorted techno. The final instalment of the Sound Sensitivity Program concludes with Container’s gloriously maniacal noise-techno intensity, Zancudo Berraco’s acid-fuelled modular frenzy and 8-bit UK bass experimentalism from Filter Dread. Plus Elevator Sounds’ lifeisfeedback and transgression.fm’s Avulgaris. Truly stacked."

A
clubnight
held at The Island
on Saturday 21st September. The event starts at 22:30.
the sensitivity sound program finally concludes it's (internationally-renowned) healing program with a boardroom meeting of sonic arsonists, knob stranglers and hardware junkies. Expect rivers of patch cables and splintered Elektron plastic buttons to engulf the room as our final round of guest speakers unite to put the CGC rig through it's paces
Container - is to dance music what Bob Ross would be to painting (if he were high on PCP and used a DeWalt DCD778D2 for a brush). With nearly 15 years of experience cutting pure sonic mayhem to tape, Container's music has only grown in intensitiy and anyone who's seen recent live footage will know what the f.. is up
Zancudo Berraco - the screwball, gnod-approved, live & improvised modular techno alias of Portugeuse avant-garde sound artist Henrique Apolinário, last year's 'Sistema de Luz' on Tesla Tapes is a face-melting, high energy assault on the senses which doesn't pause to relent and will move even the strokiest of chins
Filter Dread - transforms hardcore / grime / rave memories into 8-bit VHS mulch. Years on from when they began and still hellbent on distorting blunted memories of the past into their neon-lit retro-futurist vision of what's yet to come
lifeisfeedback - the modular wizard and Elevator Sound emissary is as comfortable conducting noise seances as they are slinging Bunker Den Haag style electro bullets. Kept eternally toasty by the fires of Turbo Island we're keen to hear them bring some of that heat into the club
+ very special warm up DJ sets from transgression.fm's Avulgaris - bringing a record box of psychedelic & dubbed-out Latin riddims + ambient opener from sensitivity sound program CEO
programs to conclude on this night exactly one year on from when we started - don't call it a birthday, it's a funeral, thank you for your participation
