B.Y.O.L.S.D.

This Friday we will be embarking on a journey to play the Telemagica Festival.
There have been slight changes to the set we planned due to the circumstances that certain people cannot make it but as always, we will flow with the greater energy that made us want to do this together. Below are the maps and infos for the Festival.

We are playing at FRIDAY 7PM @ THE INSTITUTE OF PERCEPTION GARAGE

MAGICK SHOWS and PERFORMANCES

“Dub offered the perfect score to the world’s deepening post-colonial dusk. Started, so legend goes, by Kingston's King Tubby in his studio on 18 Drumille Avenue, dub is basically this: a song sunk into the cavernous depths of a mixing board, stripped of its secure pop substances, and returned to the world as an electrified monster or vampire. (It's no accident that vampires appear on the covers of numerous dub LPs.) With dub, what was once flesh and bone is transformed into vague melodies that suddenly appear and vanish, moans that rise and recede, and bass lines that move through the echo-haze like phantoms in a haunted house. Dub is the "ghost dimension" of the real pop song; there is no body in dub, just a flickering afterimage of what was once a body.” (Charles Mudede)
