Matthew Bourne + Nightports live debut
Published 26 September 2017 by DM

In collaboration with production duo Nightports, Matthew Bourne is to premiere a new project at Middleton Hall in Hull on October 12th as part of the Hull City Of Culture program.

Nightports is based on a simple but unbreakable rule of restriction: only sounds produced by the featured musician can be used. Nothing else. But these sounds can be transformed, distorted, translated, reworked, processed and reprocessed, stretched, cut, ordered and reordered without limitation. The fruits of their meticulous labour with Bourne will be released as an album by The Leaf Label early next year, with further collaborations to follow.

To recreate their studio work, the live show will feature three pianos and live manipulations. This will be your first chance to hear it anywhere. Get your tickets here.

Snapped Ankles - Come Play The Trees out today

Give thanks to your favourite tree spirit, for Snapped Ankles have borne fruit. Indeed this harvest is not just restricted to their perfectly ripened debut album Come Play The Trees, but also a feast of videos for hungry eyes.

The video for 'Come Play The Trees' takes the form of a forest survival tutorial. The time to take to the wild is very nearly upon us, so do yourself a favour and watch it before you get distracted elsewhere.

Here is the start of a video series entitled Tuning Trees, in which the woodwose ably demonstrate the sound of the trees of the world. You should probably subscribe to their YouTube channel in order to stay informed and entertained.

Come Play The Trees is available on LP+CD/CD/digital on your platform of choice.

The wildmen are on tour. Go and see them.
