The Yard, Moseley
Kikimora Records hope you're not superstitious... we're cooking up a witchy concoction of electronic sounds for our next Babicabin party on Friday 13 September!
We invite you to cosy up for live sets from the beguiling Newcastle-upon-Tyne musician Me Lost Me and underground steel pan artist Zolatec. Expect an evening of soaring vocals and atmospheric sounds that playfully push the boundaries folk, art pop, noise, witch-house and electronica.
The Kiki Craft Corner will be prepped with lino prints galore - so you can make your own Babicabin poster and take it home! And of course there'll be DJs to dance to & dumplings to eat too!
WHATS ON
ME LOST ME | listen here |
After performing at our first In The Bellows event last year, we're delighted to invite back Jayne Dent aka Me Lost Me for a spellbinding show as part of her UK tour. She experiments with songwriting, creating a beguiling mix of soaring folk vocals and atmospheric electronics that playfully push the boundaries of genre.
With her prolific writing and extensive touring schedule, her unique sound has won much support across the musical spectrum. Me Lost Me invites listeners to explore her strange world of fantasy pastoral lands, sleepless unreality, and the joy of losing yourself in stories.
"stripping folk back to its bones while letting its future echoes bleed out"
- The Guardian
ZOLATEC | listen here |
Born in Leicester, ZOLATEC is an experienced steel drummer, and established underground/independent artist.
ZOLATEC taught herself how to use Ableton Live during the covid lockdown period in 2020. Inspired by music ranging from Metal to Dub, she uses software to fuse these influences into her own dark & melodic compositions. With the use of midi controllers and live pan improvisation, her set is performed differently each time. In May 2023, she performed her original music at SOUP, Manchester.
“My music effectively addresses the shortfall of authentic steel drums in music. The Island instrument was only standardized in the 1930’s, so it’s relatively new and rare to some. Many producers choose to use a pitched up/down sample of the drum, creating an instant loss in the dynamics and beauty of the sound.”
