Using vintage, homemade and third-hand equipment influenced by all electronic music throughout time. Nothing is sacred, most is usable and everything is on the verge of breaking down at all times. They released their debut album “Plant” in 2015. Mark Francombe is better known as the spanner wielding dreadlocked guitarist from Cranes, the dark dream pop indie band, that gained cult status after being played by John Peel and playing support to The Cure. Francombe’s solo work since Cranes has predominantly been live looping a heavily modified baritone guitar and work with home made modular synths. His interest in electronics and synthesisers has existed from the early 1980s, citing Cabaret Voltaire and Kraftwerk as early influences. Electricity is his only purely electronic project for over 15 years. Martin Powell began his Monolab project in 1992 in the Beautiful town of West Bromwich,deep in the heart of the West Midlands. Producing experimental / electronic “Space Music”, using mainly old 70’s/80’s analogue synths + old effects units. Similarities have been made with:- Sonic Boom’s E.A.R Project, Add N To X, Space Machine, and the early works of the BBC Radiophonic Workshop. ••• Velkommen til årets Musikkfest Schäffers under MUSIKKFEST OSLO lørdag 6. juni!
