Been out with a bad flu the last week but still managed to do a bit more on the bent Casio ct670 and installed a nano looper to the final out, such a diverse fun keyboard this one #circuitbent#casioct670#keyboard#circiutbending#noise
Foolish Masses, we hear your pained cries, seeping through gelid woodlands and gullies mired in fog:

“League! It has been over two weeks since your last event, and all you have done is announce the establishment of an extremely well-advised, complicated and time-consuming record label project! What of the Rituals? What of the congregations? Why not the seances? Are these to be cast into the Void, like so many Wizards before them?”

The answer, you fool, is OF COURSE NOT. Be assured, fevered work continues, as do our various anxiety-born rashes and existential crises. Wizards shall continue to be excised, and the League shall continue to bring you together to pay observance. We are nothing if not a bringer-togetherer.

TO THIS END we announce our next Vacuus Rituale, to be held at the Little Lost Bookshop, Katoomba, on the night of Saturday August 22nd. TIX. IN. BIO.

A lineup of Observers calculated to delight, horrify and astound has been assembled, comprising:

James Heighway

An experimental sound and noise artist from the Blue Mountains using synthesizers, guitars, circuit bent keyboards in improvised live format. James has a long list of local, national and international collaborations and their current main project is Without Doors; guitar, synth improvisations both solo and in collaboration, in outdoor locations.

Abre Ojos

Sound and vision for dystopian meditation, come with them on a ritualised, psychedelic doom journey. Abre Ojos is based on Djiringanj Country on the Far South Coast of NSW.

scariestgirlintheworld

Emerging from Eora’s underground experimental scene, scariestgirlintheworld delivers a gritty, harsh and meditative sonic palette. Her performances are introspective and visceral, drawing from found sound, feedback and classical music to construct brutal textures and soundscapes.

Wall of Goats

A Gadigal-based music project combining feedback, sample sequencing, and overwhelming distortion. Inspired by early industrial acts like Coil and Throbbing Gristle, and contemporary heavy music such as The Body, Wall of Goats draws on the occult history of queer esotericism through improvised noise and ritual loops.
