Looks like Eat Skull are playing again at The Old Blue Last this Thursday.

I'm assuming that's them. Free gig too.

Downstairs Hosted by: Lolita
Porcelain Raft
If you’re a fan of Beach House, and you really should be a fan of Beach House, then you can be pretty much certain that Porcelain Raft’s similarly dreamy and blissed-out pop songs are going to be right up your street. That’s not to say that Mauro Remiddi, the man behind the moniker, is merely replicating a near-perfect formula, there’s a personality behind his bleary post-glitch beats that has positioned Porcelain Raft as one of our favourite dream pop wonders of 2010. Working with guitars, samplers, loops and keyboards, Remiddi produces each of his songs under a strict 24 hour time limit, a technique that has stopped him from overthinking or overproducing and has helped to maintain the haunting simplicity that is so irresistible within his songs. Although having only begun making music less than a year ago, Porcelain Raft already has three EP’s available for download and as if that wasn’t keeping him busy enough he also makes his own videos; so far these have featured footage including children speaking in sign language, extroverted 80’s hair metallers and a Shiva dancer doing her thing, he’s also made a video for Yuck, cool.

“his bleary, blessed-out songs will have fans of dreamy pop clinging to him” – The Guardian

‘Fans and critics alike should be fawning over Porcelain Raft in droves’ – The Line of Best Fit

‘his luscious dream-pop noises manage to transport you to a whole other plane’ – RockFeedback

Sensation
Sensation are so new on the scene that you can’t find anything about them on the internet, or maybe they’ve just picked one of those band names that is impossible to Google, like ‘!!!’ or ‘Final Fantasy’. I guess unless you are willing to name your band ‘Thee Silver Mt Zion’ or ‘…And You Will Know Us By The Trail Of The Dead’ then you’re always going to run into this problem. Anyway, Sensation are good, very good. They make pop songs that work both on a dancefloor and on a pumping stereo. Influenced by the sounds and images of synthwave, Italo and electro they will take you on a hypnotic journey through space, shadows and light. Come check them out.

Whitechapel Gallery Music: An Echoing Bell: Sacred Places, Bells And Percussive Sounds

Time 8pm -10pm
Fees £7/£6 conc
Venue Whitechapel Gallery
Address 80-82 Whitechapel High Street, E1 7QX

Whitechapel Lates presents An Echoing Bell: Sacred Places, Bells and Percussive Sounds an evening of art, music and spoken word curated by Kevin Quigley and Galvanised!

Working in association with the Whitechapel Bell Foundry, artist Kevin Quigley has invited avant garde drummer and percussionist Charles Hayward (This Heat), jazz experimentalist and vibes player Orphy Robinson and artist / performer Marc Vaulbert De Chantilly to devise and produce a series of performances evoking the magical energies and heart rending sounds of bells.

For An Echoing Bell, the collaborators have been exploring links between the 'Oranges and Lemons' 16th century nursery rhyme, its local East London origins and secrets of geomancy and Ley lines. The sixteen churches that are spoken about in the traditional London rhyme are said to mark out a series of churches which form the so called 'St Paul's Ley', which runs from St Mary Le Bow in the west of the City of London, through St Pauls Cathedral and then Whitechapel, out to St Dunstans in Stepney.

The four artists will transform one of the Whitechapel's galleries into a 'sacred bell shrine, using 17th Century Whitechapel bells, black ink drawings of the Ley lines of Londons churches, glass and steel etched plates of geomantic diagrams, text performances and interventional sound and musical performances.
