@robertcurgenven.bsky.social has just put out this ridiculously good bundle purchase - AGENESIS, Beyond Enclosures and Climata - for less than fifty euros. Peerless music from one of the best to ever do it.

#NowPlaying For centuries, people in the arctic have claimed to hear the Aurora Borealis. Although such accounts have long been dismissed by modern science, could it be that these stories were right all along? www.youtube.com/watch?v=tnAT...

All three AGENESIS shows at Dark Mofo have sold out - so mid-Sept to mid-Oct, we'll take it to Europe. Know how to make a show happen, have a venue or festival? Get in touch! (Needs good PA & lights) Looking forward to bringing this "baptism of light" to Europe again

"Robert Curgenven’s "on which the sun never sets" ... produced a remarkable personal reaction: I shut my eyes for part of the performance, and on opening them experienced a distinct sensation of the loss of colour."
Happy to be wrecking minds with my recent work for Quiet Music Ensemble

Between 1994-98 (age 19-24) I worked at a few magazines & newspapers, as editor and/or designer, in or adjacent to music industry - this documentary shows interesting "insider" perspective on some of the changes in 1993-95 & the people too www.youtube.com/watch?v=f4Ia... HT @marcissist.bsky.social
