Voices in the machines
When the winds blow from the South West, bringing rain from the rolling sea with the tang of Atlantic salt spray across the Cornish coast, come the Storm Machines.
Sometimes thunderous, often with an echo of the Bristol sound revealing the shared acoustic heritage of a pair of Drum and Bass DJ/Producers allied with a modulating guitarist.
Swirling, looping phasing soundscapes of beat driven off beat poetry brought to you via Tanzania, Manchester, Windmill Hill and the Cheesewring.
Against this varied sonic palette the highly tempered word smithing forges a message for our time, their time and the timeless.
