About this event
Slowfoam + Sina play 3 live dates across London, Newcastle and Glasgow ahead of their forthcoming albums for Somewhere Press. They're joined by London-based Nosewise for an intimate evening of nocturnal dreamweaving in Spanners. The event will be soundtracked by Somewhere Press DJs.\\n\\n--\\n𝗦𝗹𝗼𝘄𝗳𝗼𝗮𝗺\\n\\nSlowfoam, aka Madelyn Byrd, is a sound artist, performer, DJ, and educator exploring sonic-somatics and the ecopoetics of home and transformation. Slowfoam embodies an innate sensitivity to texture and somatic response, alchemising field recording, found hums and drones, electroacoustics, voice, guitar, and sound design into genreless whirls.\\n\\nSlowfoam's debut album Transcorporeal Portal was released with Somewhere Press in 2024, and included in Bandcamp’s best of Ambient. Their sophomore album, Night Rider, follows later this year, revisiting a teenhood in the Sonoran Desert through Wild West fantasy. Night Rider weaves the synaesthesia of memory and streams of (un)conscious meanderings with a buzzing palimpsest of the American Southwest.\\n\\n𝗦𝗶𝗻𝗮\\n\\nYet another starlet borne of Naarm’s prodigious nexus, Sina emerges from the trip-hop murk of Dregs’ widely adored, eponymous ’23 entry. Her recent single, Olympus, for Somewhere Press, is the first sign of bigger things on the horizon. It blooms from reverbed guitar, synth pads and longing vocals with a sense of strung-out, romantic pathos and sensuality that colours much of the best work from the city at the far end of the world.\\n\\n𝗡𝗼𝘀𝗲𝘄𝗶𝘀𝗲\\n\\nSharing a name with certain medieval hounds, Nosewise is the alias of one member of the London-based project Twin System. His music can be found on said label, along with new imprint ‘Ó Maidhin’.
