THE PHEROMOANS were formed in Brighton in 2005 as a quartet of Alex Garran, James Hines, James Tranmer and Russell Walker, and played their first concert in at the Freebutt in Brighton in January 2006. Russell moved to London shortly after, putting the future of the band in doubt. Combinations of the above line-up along with new member Christian Butler-Zanetti. They would play sporadically in London with promoters such as Upset The Rhythm at venues such as Bardens Boudoir in Dalston. The sound was a very basic take on UK DIY bands such as Swell Maps, along with obscure garage rock bands from the 1960s as documented on retrospective compilations such as Back To The Grave. What set the band apart from their peers was a complete disregard for musical competence and rehearsing, along with the effort Russell Walker put into his lyrics. They made a CD to start selling at gigs in 2007, and gradually recorded that would make up the material up that would be included on several singles and a debut LP on the New York label Consulsive in 2011. Also in 2011 Dan Bolger stepped in to add a more electronic dimension to the band's offering. Several releases followed, with Scott Reeve replacing James Hines as drummer following a dispute. The early 2020s saw founding member of the band Alex Garran moving to Stavanger in Norway, and Christian Butler-Zanetti to Okinaya, Japan. In stepped Brighton resident Henry Holmes and work began on the band?s new album ?Wyrd Pseacrh, out on Upset The Rhythm on March 1st.

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.
