THE OC REBOOT: A USER'S GUIDE


Just days to go... the OC universe reboots in epic style on Friday January 20th with rising Glasgow label Broken20. TVO and Erstlaub will be performing live, both in solo and collaborative configurations, with Production Unit (and also TVO) manning the decks. John Cohen is unfortunately not able to make the event. He will instead be represented by a screening of his film, Tar Riverwhile the line-up is completed by London's Tengui (Colony/Broken20/PercTrax) who promises a set of deepest, darkest drone for your edification.

What else? Well, in their infinite kindness, Broken20 will be giving away a free 3" CD (see cover art above) featuring tracks from each artist to the first few down and a free download code for all. We will be irradiating Sticky Mike's Frog Bar from 7.30pm until late and you can buy your tickets on the door (subject to availability) or in advance from here.

While we're at it... you need to get your ears around what's happening at Broken20's cassette-based sister label, Broken60. The new release from 10-20, Magnet Marsh, is one of the finest new new new things we've heard in some time... let's just say the title is eerily appropriate.

Finally, The Outer Church visited London Fields Radio in Hackney last week to record the inaugural edition of The Outer Church Community Broadcast. Guesting were the wonderfully loquacious Warren Ellis and Laurie Penny and the show will soon be streaming from the LFR site. Stay tuned for further details.
