The next Vanishing Point @ The Ivy House is on Thursday 2nd May. It is a special electronic ambient & experimental music night; a real one to remember.
On the bill: 2 artists who record for Linear Obsessional; BBC 6 Music Freak Zone-featured Smallhaus & Linear Obsessional founder and composer-artist Richard Sanderson plus amazing young electronic art music duo Small Loris and exciting new experimental trio HMS Loss.
The gig will also be live streamed on the internet by bndr Music. Vanishing Point is becoming one of the key events in the live music calendar in South East London. We are here on the first Thursday of every month. Come and hang out and if you are a band or artist talk to us about whether you might be right for us to put on at a future gig.
Thursday 4th April is the date of the next Vanishing Point @ The Ivy House. And it’s a pretty special one celebrating talented young women in new music.
But if you are not able to make the gig in person bndr Music are live streaming it on the internet.
Neil March‘s book The Independent Sector (2019) is now available in Paperback from Amazon. The book is an easy-to-read guide to all you need to know about operating within the independent music industry.
The book takes you through release & distribution; publishing; royalties; management; agents; live music; radio promo; music press; streaming & playlists; contracts; social media & lots more.
We are very excited to announce that Vanishing Point will move from being every other month to the first Thursday of every month at the beautiful Ivy House in Nunhead from 4th April 2019.
Demerara Records head & composer Neil March explained: ‘It is still our intention to alternate between Vanishing Point and Vanishing Point Solo but the difference is that, from April, all the gigs will be at the Ivy House where the facilities are so good and our relationship with the venue is first class. In fairness our relationship with the Cafe of Good Hope is great too but there are practical reasons why it is not ideal for what we are trying to do, particularly as a long term project’.
The first gig in the new monthly series will be the one featuring Luvia, Yvonne Hercules and Environmental Sound Foundation. Details can be found here.
Paul Cook’s fantastic review in Joyzine of Vanishing Point @ The Ivy House (7th February) features the last ever gig by Rothko along with Environmental Sound Foundation and Handaöline. Read it here.
Neil told demerararecords.com ‘I am deeply honoured and I hope I can make a valid contribution to the work of this extraordinary and historic organisation’.
