Bunty // Mos 5 – Mystery

“Mysterious fruit hang from every tree

but it is impossible to grab one.”

The fifth and penultimate part of Multimos is a journey to the depths of the unknown. Join in as Bunty leads the way…

Beatabet presents…

BUNTY // HALO HALO // GIDEON CONN

10th April, Blind Tiger Club, Brighton.

Stepping out of the studio momentarily, Bunty will be presenting the latest developments of her live Multimos show on tour in April. Accompanying her on the Brighton date are two special guests…

After wowing audiences at the Beatabet stage during last year’s Playgroup Festival Halo Halo bring their afro-tinged psychedelia to Brighton. Vocal chanting, pounding rhythms and electric banjos all fuse together into a mesmerising experience not to be missed!

Gideon Conn returns to grace Beatabet with his unique presence and brings more of his crazy / kooky tales of urban incoherence and child-like musings on the state of the universe…

Le Juki // Forest Of Stick Insects

We’re thrilled to be bringing you Le Juki‘s debut single “Forest Of Stick Insects“. A psych-stomp bonanza of strings and staggered beats.  Ramshackle brain-hop percussion collides with a Tom Waits dream of drunkenness in a darkened wood.  The song is a taster of Le Juki’s upcoming album and is the perfect introduction to their idiosyncratic take on twisted freak-folk.

Le Juki features a trio of incredible musicians; Beatabet founder member Jules Arthur on strings and synths, Kassia Zermon aka Bunty and virtuoso guitarist/composer Lee Westwood.

Official release is 1st April, but we don’t do things by the book here… Head over to their Bandcamp and grab yourself a free download while it’s hot.

Spacenoid // Clive And Direct

Continuing our series of live showcases, we recorded Spacenoid in the studio last year. It’s part two of the Beatabet Sessions and the electro-prog-assult that resulted has been lovingly dubbed “Clive And Direct

The first video to be unleashed is Copter - showcasing the band members’ mastery of their instruments whilst kicking you sonically in the balls.

Spacenoid are currently writing an album which we’re very excited to be releasing on Beatabet towards the end of this year. In the mean time we’re putting out Clive And Direct via Bandcamp to whet your appetites. You can download it for free or name your price to help support these rising Beatabet artists.

Find Spacenoid on facebook for the latest news and upcoming gigs.

 

Man Ray Sky // Keep Fighting

From part one of our Beatabet Sessions series, Keep Fighting is a previously unreleased song that displays a different side of Man Ray Sky. One that is wrapped up in soft stuff that makes us feel nice. Grab a free download from them here and share the love.
