In 2019 David Chatton Barker spent a year walking and researching into the hill and its surrounding moors, the material gathered formed a series of performances, culmin…
Minstrels and Minimoogs

Beside Herself
Michele Mercure often dreams of music, and in her waking life, reclaims
fragments of these fleeting, floating melodies in her compositions and
sound art. Beside Herself, an anthology of Mercure’s self-produced and
distributed cassettes released between 1983 and 1990, collects these
dreamlike passages and lo-fi nocturnes, preserving the qualities of
discovery and intimacy surrounding their genesis. Mercure’s sound is a porous electronic art that overlaps ambient,
abstract, and industrial se…
