Hackney-based experimental label Misc., aka Misc.Works, celebrates 5 years of sonic vandalism/ART at Hackney's best small space, with a super-special guest and some equally special locals in tow(n).
Joining us from tekno-futurist world capital Berlin, Hainbach – Stefan Goetsch by day – will play his long-awaited London debut, drawing on a fearsome back-catalogue of drone excursions, tape experiments, synth forays, DAW tinkerings, piano workouts and, for Misc. over recent times, brain-frying test equipment techno jams (and beyond); not mentioning his 100000-strong YouTube op. Of tonight’s show, he says: “The main instrument I am playing is a re-purposed DJ tool, the Vestax Faderboard. Instead of scratching and cutting on it, I am using it to rework bits-and-pieces of upcoming album and performance Schlaufenzeit, a heavy early-electronics ambient record. The other instruments are built by friends of mine in Berlin: a sub-bass Kalimba is my percussion source, and the Cocoquantus messes everything up until all is glorious noise.” You have been warned!
Joining Hainbach, Misc. co-chief Datassette will play a rare live PA, drawing on his recent, ambient-ish Zetex tape, “a response to, and in part constructed from, the sound of the ever-unfurling, grey machinery of London”. His cult following is regularly treated to arty bootleg tomfoolery, squelching machine-kore, adjacent club de-/re-constructions, mixed belters and BUSINESS FUNK, while his Misc. label specialises in ‘weird things nobody else cares about’ (and good tunes sometimes too, obv). For this most special of occasions, to celebrate Misc.’s arrival at the five-years-closer-to-the-end mark, he will present “generative synth techniques and processed street recordings, used throughout Zetex – alienating, chaotic and noisy, but peaceful, inspiring and beautiful”. Yes please.
Amanda Butterworth, whose multi-dimensional soundsystem electronics always impress, will play the evening’s third live show, hot on the heels of a fabulous new (yes) tape for Misc. comrades Frequency Domain. Her work as Mücha – including a knockout compilation of archival songscapes, for YT – is a constellation of influences and ideas that sits in a space of its own, both ‘inside’ and ‘outside’ the genres it courts: vintage space-pop/shoegaze, rolling ‘94/5 jungle, the inaugural techno of Atkins and Hood, whispery IDM, Krautrock, and the overlapping avant-futurisms of Cage, Reich, Riley, Derbyshire and Anderson. Leaning into the latter tonight, Mücha will “sample and manipulate my voice, and interplay with live vocals” – with added drum synth, to keep yr planted feet tapping.
Support comes from the little-known Kessler V (wot done Misc.'s first release) and the excellent Orrest (wot done our fourth release), live/DJing and DJDJing respectively, before and between the above-mentioned sets. Tickets are on sale now via RA, for 10/13 sheets + BF, and doors are open from half 7 till midnight. That’s really all you need to know. See you down there?
