PINSKI ZOO:
'..a compelling power unique in English Jazz'. [The Wire]
Almost impossible to categorize they swing from virtuosic jazz to gritty
funk with freedom and movement, veering into leftfield territory and
returning with snappy anthem-like tunes. Unpredictable and exciting, they
carved a unique style in the UK and won praise from critics at home and
abroad. Sometimes a maelstrom of sound, other times a hypnotic theme over
backbeats, their eclectic fusion of style foreshadowed the move towards
mixing influences in much of today's modern music. With 8 albums and
extensive touring in Europe, and the USA in the late 80's and 90's and a
'Best British Band at the British International Jazz Awards in '91' they are
back after several years of individual projects.

BLURT [Time Out hype]:
A is for Anarchy, B is for Blurt, A Bee in The Bonnet, a Boot where it
Hurts...Ted Milton's Demonic sax, and shouty, dadaist poetry, anguished &
passionate psycho-funk, afro punk, fake no-wave trio.
Over a period of 17 years the mighty, mythic Blurt have festered and
fulminated, swaggered and evolved into an unusual and uncompromising beast
capable of a magic and sublime, dissonant and confrontationalist music.
Seminal influence on the contemporary dance scene, gyrating & ranting harder
than ever...

CAMPAG VELOCET:
Campaq Velocet are clubbers Pete, Agre and Lascelles who've take an
unscheduled detour through left-field guitar music - energised by hip hop
artists like School D and Public Enemy, as well as the massive signal beamed
out of the Detroit techno scene.
------
BEDOUIN ASCENT (Radio 1 hype):
Bedouin Ascent is the 'rhythm as melody'/digital improvisation project of
Kingsuk Biswas, Digital/Art/Electronica Pioneer. For over a decade he has
been out there mixing live and digital, West African percussion, jazz, noise
and dub with North Indian classical modes + chaos and quantum theories. His
list of collaborators include such luminaries as Bill Laswell, David Toop,
Zakir Hussein, Jon Hassel, Plaid, Anokha and Talvin Singh. His new EP, JUNK
FORCE, has just come out on the No Immortal label, destined to rock our
world in a fundamental manner. Hard, oblique, jazz and electronics. Catch
him live in the mix.
