Dronica #64 - Dronica Meets Montague and Armstrong

Nicola Serra, founder of East London's experimental music festival Dronica, presents new and archival material.

In this episode, Dronica meets Jude Montague and Matt Armstrong.

Matt Armstrong & Jude Montague present influences and work that has stimulated their imagination in creating their avant-Hammond albums created DIY in their home studios in (formerly) Mottingham and Hastings which feature many rescued keyboards and machines of twentieth century music. Their next album ‘Modern Classics’ is out this autumn on Dimple Discs.

Bio: Matt Armstrong is the bass player in the acclaimed Kenny Process Team, the ambitious and playful guitar tune combo from East London described as ‘godlike’ in the NME, and plays professionally with British avant-folk genius Bill Fay.

Jude Montague is a poet and musician and has been creating content for Resonance FM since 2014 through her show which brings together news and arts, looking at histories of sounds and international stories, ‘The News Agents’. She learned to sing saluang music in Sumatra Barat and has a particular interest in singing Latvian folk songs and Baltic mythology. She has performed at Dronica Festivals with Ilia Rogatchevski and Lisa Ramirez McKendrick.
