Alphabets Heaven has just released a new beat tape inspired by Italo Calvino’s novel Invisible Cities. On his website you can also dub the tracks yourself (play with filters and delay) for extra fun whilst listening. I recorded some vocals for him on one of the tracks called Heart. Have a play! Follow the link above.
You can also stream it and buy it from his bandcamp:

I am playing a show in Brighton on Saturday 25th as part of an event run by a wonderful group of women called The World is Listening.The event is free and supported by the art council giving a platform for female artists to show and learn from each others work. There will be performances from Cate Ferris and myself and also workshops on vocal looping and talking pictures which is where participants can make and record their own analogue synth sounds and then using Posca paints and conductive ink they can use the pictures to trigger the synth sounds! I’ve booked myself a place at this workshop and can’t wait. check out the event and come along if you can.
If you’d like to know a little more about my new record and the inspiration behind the songs then have a read of this article – Drowned in Sound asked me to give them a track by track guide.
