Brave the elements at this pre-festive sonic celebration, graced by three artists who each find singularly ecstatic ways to stoke the fires of modern music.

UPDATE:

Unfortunately Richard Dawson is unwell and unable to perform this evening at Arnolfini.

Instead, winging in from Sheffield are the mighty BLOOD SPORT, whose deadly combination with Islam Chipsy & EEK sees things shift gear into a dancefloor feast of pan-global polyrhythmia and hypnotic machine melody. 

Islam Chipsy & EEK bring their jubilant volley of freewheeling keyboard and locked-in double-drummer rhythms direct from Cairo, Egypt – without exaggeration one of the most exciting live propositions around right now: while prodigious minimalist composer Kit Wilmans Fegradoe unfurls deep and reverent drones at the evening’s birth.

DJ Dave Howell (FatCat Records) brings chaos, rhythm and a healthy pinch of the unknown to all parts before, between and after.
