Happy to announce that TAKU @conglomerationofpeeps and DJ @marinaorgan (The Other Rock Show/Resonance FM) will open for Yumi Hara's Groove Study (@yumiharamusic / Chris Cutler / Toshiaki Sudoh) at @cafeotodalston on September 9thTickets on sale now via DiceYumi Hara’s Groove Study are avant-rock trio consisting of ex-Henry Cow drummer Chris Cutler; London-based Japanese composer/pianist/vocalist Yumi Hara, the driving force of Lindsay Cooper Songbook, who has been collaborating extensively with Canterbury/Rock in Opposition/Krautrock/contemporary classical music such as Hugh Hopper of Soft Machine, Daevid Allen of Gong, Jean-Hervé Péron of faUSt, Tim Hodgkinson, John Greaves, Geoff Leigh, Dagmar Krause of Henry Cow, and PianoCircus; and ex-MELT-BANANA and collaborator of Jim O'Rourke and Eiko Ishibashi (also appeared her score for the film Drive My Car) bassist Toshiaki Sudoh, performing music with complex rhythm and harmony, yet accessible with memorable melodies, fusing ever-changing odd metres and world rhythms (expect Gamelan in 6, reggae in 7, West-African polyrhythms in 10, Baroque fugue in 15), medieval modes and Japanese scales which would appeal fans of Canterbury Scene, Rock in Opposition, Avant-Prog and Recommended Records: ‘incisive’, ‘fizzes with invention and inspiration’, ‘distils so many of the musical ideas’, ‘nothing short of majestic’ (Sid Smith, PROG magazine).--TAKU – Entropic ImprovisationThrough the slow aggregation over ten years in the nebula of the East London music scene, four spheres occupying different spots in space and time (Thomas Broda, Nathan Fustec, @agate.max , and Julia Nutter) coalesced through the point of extreme creative gravitation pull of the Conglomeration of Peeps project into: TAKUBorn of the chaos of multiple environments, TAKU is a place of most unpredictable cosmic weather where, as the non-linear nature of the elements present inside blends and separates, creating everything from long gazes into the expanse to fractals of the infinitely small to lightning storms battling solar flares. To experience Taku is to witness the birth of new astral phenomena, every moment. by @agate.max

@newriverstudios 23rd May Tickets via DICE or Resident Advisor: Dice:https://dice.fm/event/ry9y7v-flowers-must-die-20-years-anniversary-23rd-may-new-river-studios-london-tickets?lng=en Resident Advisor:https://ra.co/events/2391327Agate!! Agate needs no introduction for you Rocket aficionados. Agate is one half of the band Kuro who's S/T album we released in 2016. Since then Agate's sonic explorations has seen her play as part of many other forward-looking projects (Abstract Concrete, UKAEA, These Towns, Ondata Rossa) as well as crafting a very established solo career – expect something very special. Flowers Must Die Sweden's premiere commune dwelling kosmonauts are celebrating their 20th anniversary this year, and rumour has it they will have an ultra ltd edition vinyl LP of music for sale at the event.Robert LeinerIncredible Swedish electronic artist who releases on Höga Nord Rekords, R&S etc – an artist who merges kosmische into acid house and techno with ease – a VERY rare live outing in the UK. Flowers Must DieSweden's premiere commune dwelling kosmonauts are celebrating their 20th anniversary this year, and rumour has it they will have an ultra ltd edition vinyl LP of music for sale at the event. VedFor those who saw Ved at Rockets party at the Garage in 2018, you know how amazing this band is. They have released five albums, and a bunch of EPs/singles, since their 2006 inception. This is their first UK show since that legendary weekend, another unmissable performance. OchThis Swedish band return to London for their second ever show – this time though they will be returning as a three-piece, so as their two albums on Rocket were recorded. We have been lucky enough to immerse into Och as a trio at Le Guess Who, and we can safely say, it will be an otherworldly experience. ION + Christina DevaWe were blessed to catch Christina Deva supporting Ak'chamel last year and we were mesmerised by her music. She is joined by ION, a medievalist ambient musician originating from the Balkans. This is the live debut of this collaboration.@agate.max @flowersmustdieband @othisworldofmine @christina_deva @ved.sound @thesourceexperien by @agate.max

After a quiet period, Golden Ratio Frequencies is delighted to return to physical releases with KURAMA from French experimental musician Agathe Max @agate.max . 🪷Best known for her powerful, emotive work as a virtuoso violinist—across projects including Abstract Concrete (with Charles Hayward), These Towns (UKEA, Will Glaser), Mésange (God Unknown), and Kuro (Rocket Recordings) —KURAMA sees Max step away from strings into experimental electronics, ASMR, and healing music. 🪷Named after the Japanese mountain regarded as the birthplace of Reiki, KURAMA unfolds as an 8-track journey through the body—a musical interpretation of hands-on healing, and a process that became its own form of self-regulation. 🪷Composed in the early morning light, each track channels a quiet clarity—moving from ASMR textures and therapeutic tuning forks into solfeggio frequencies, subtly resonating through the body. 💆🏻There’s a gentle, playful innocence throughout: soft pads, arpeggiated synths, sensory detail, and even the purring of Max’s late cat, Lemmy. 🐈‍⬛ Echoes of New Age, Kankyō Ongaku, and contemporary minimalism drift through it all resulting in a thoughtful, deeply felt offering—created with care and intention. 🙏🏻RIYL Hiroshi Yoshimura, Green-House, experimental New Age Cassettes.Limited to 50 lilac marbled cassettes with 2 page inlay and UV printed cases ♻️ Ships 22 May 2026 *** Special Deep listening preview this Saturday 18 April @do.omyoga London, to lay back, immerse, and listen to the album in full.
