The Spirit of Gravity have been at the heart of Brighton’s experimental music scene for the last 15 years. Established by maverick art duo Maphead and rapidly growing into a collective of around 12 artists/bands, they have been quietly and continuously programming and presenting the best weirdo music they can make and find. Recently validated with a request to submit to the British Library Sound Archive, the Collective felt this is a good time to broadcast a whole load of live gigs and ephemera collected over 15 years of live gigs, festivals, collaborations and label releases. Now: witness recordings that range from shambling amateurish live events to shambling amateurish live events, but also include absolute gems from the likes of Dan Powell, Malevich, Hot Roddy, minimal impact, Multiplex, DJ Cheesemaster, Terror Wogan, DJ Shitmat, DJ Scotch Egg, Metronomy, Halal Kebab Hut, I’m Dr Buoyant and many, many, many, many, many, more….
