Description

Thrilled to be bringing Apostille to town! Michael is a true legend of the Glasgow scene, who's previously played a couple of Smash Disco shows both as Apostille and with his amazing hardcore band Gimp World, and and it feels Anxiety must have come through at some point... Apostille's latest tracks are perfect dancefloor filling pop songs - perfect for the sweatbox of the Library basement.

Apostille are on tour with synth pop duo Marina Zispin, who make beautiful, melancholic pop songs that feel like they sit in a liminal space between dream and reality.

And will be joined in the Library by our own glitch punk duo Dream Phone, whose high energy sugar rush hyperpop bangers have seen them fast become Oxford's most essential live act, and synth punk gang In-Flight Movie, whose latest single Easy makes a great case for them being Oxford's answer to LCD Soundsystem. What a bill, what a show!

The gig will be 18+ and the venue has several small flights of stairs, including down to the venue room.

And some more info on Apostille and Marina Zispin.

APOSTILLE is a man who's torn through enough soundsystems to know the difference between gesture and meaning. Alongside running his own DIY record label Night School Records, Glasgow native Michael Kasparis has previously made forays into the realm of hardcore punk with his groups Anxiety and The Lowest Form. Throughout all this, his solo electronic venture Apostille has continued to evolve with each twist and turn of the world. What started off as a quest to whip up a mood and force that into a song has steadily become more of a mission in communication. The third Apostille album, ?Prisoners Of Love And Hate?, is released on Night School on September 22nd.

MARINA ZISPIN aka synth pop apparitions Bianca Scout and Martyn Reid have been haunting the shores of Newcastle/London since forming Marina Zispin in the summer of 2018. Together they occupy the infinite twilight space that exists between fantasy and reality. Juxtaposing the sacred and mundane; they transform the selected minutia of their everyday existence into the totems and litanies that comprise their stream of conscious anthems of interdimensional melancholia. Marina Zispin release their debut 12? on Night School in September 2023.
