Erased Tapes continue their 10th Anniversary celebrations at Bristol's Colston Hall

14.6  2017

 

Shortly after the announcement of their take over at London's Southbank Centre in honour of their 10th Anniversary in September, Erased Tapes will be continuing the celebrations at Bristol's renowned Colston Hall for a series of shows with label artists including Kiasmos, Penguin Cafe, Lubomyr Melnyk, Rival Consoles, Allred & Broderick, Douglas Dare, Masayoshi Fujita and Daniel Brandt.

Initially founded by German-born Robert Raths in 2007, the London-based label has grown and extended across the world with satellite offices in Los Angeles and Berlin. Spanning over ten years, Erased Tapes has nurtured avant-garde artists from all around the world whilst remaining genre-defying and truly independent.

The takeover, celebrating ten years of the label, begins in majestic force on Tuesday 12 September with the soaring electronic sounds of Kiasmos alongside the labels first ever signing Rival Consoles with his masterful “haunting, emotive electronic-music based storytelling” (Pitchfork).

Meanwhile, in The Lantern, Lubomyr Melnyk will be performing his pioneering piano compositions and wielding a “heart tingling” (The Guardian) unbroken stream of sound following the haunting voice of Douglas Dare who opens the evening.

On Wednesday 13 September the Hall sees Allred & Broderick share their reflective folk minimalism, and later the eclectic sounds of Penguin Cafe whose slowly evolving compositions will take you from traditional folk, through South American rhythms to afrobeat with “exoticism and variety” (The Guardian).

Our foyer will also be filled with the sonic serenity of Erased Tapes as Berlin-based composer and musician Masayoshi Fujita takes the vibraphone to new heights after Brandt Brauer Frick drummer Daniel Brandt performs beautiful pieces from his debut solo album Eternal Something.

Tickets will go on general sale on Friday 16th June
