The Clothes, is the bilingual chimera of Jasper Baydala & Andreu Serra aka Kool Music & Ubaldo. Their songs are tape-hiss séances, stitching Catalan confessions to English static.

Themes shift between spiritual imagery and modern life, exploring journeys and companionship. Together, they don’t perform; they listen to the room breathe, then answer.

Not music, but a shared state. A pilgrimagethrough nowhere.

Over the last decade, C Joynes has ploughed a singular furrow through solo guitar, with a body of work incorporating English folk tunes alongside North and West African music, and lifting proto-minimalist and improvised techniques from the European classical and avant-garde traditions.

The first time we saw him was in 2016, just after his majestic "Split Electric" with Nick Jonah Davis. One more time, Joynes will lift our souls to the ceiling with his sorcery on the strings.

We don't know much about Rory JS, he landed to London around 2025 and is been seen around Lewisham.

We heard that he had been using a hotel room as a make shift studio, and the city as a mirror to refract the inside-out, Rory has produced something rarely intimate that asks for little else than what it was made with; simplicity and some kind of warmth... digital, physical, the rest.
