Thrilled to be hosting Index for Working Musik on their debut UK tour at the Golden Lion Todmorden (downstairs).

Sunday 13 April 8pm (PWYF show)

Dark Matter presents Index for Working Musik + guests

“Sexy and contagious” – Sounds of violence

“It’s original and atmospheric stuff that sounds like something that might have been recorded in The Factory and discovered decades later in a dusty corner of Warhol’s archive; all that’s missing is a surprise visit from Valerie Solanas…” – Tim Cooper

“Their sound brings to mind John Cale’s drone effects on the early VU albums and the pink noise of the Jesus and Mary Chain” – Louder than War

Dark Matter presents MAQUINA. + FLEX

Very excited to host MAQUINA. from Lisbon. With their energetic performances that blend dance culture with heavy-hook songcraft, the band quickly gained a reputation among audiences. Drawing inspiration from repetition/minimalism-centered styles such as Krautrock and Industrial Techno, MAQUINA. fearlessly explores the boundaries of these genres by incorporating elements of rock and electronic music into their distinctive sound.

The album “DIRTY TRACKS FOR CLUBBING” showcases a mix of pulsating beats, scuzzy bass riffs, and noisy guitars, challenging norms and pushing the limits of conventional music. They have successfully carved out a distinctive identity in the music scene. One of the standout features of MAQUINA.’s live performances is their commitment to authenticity and musicality. Unlike many electronic acts that heavily rely on machines and programmed beats, this trio challenges convention by excluding the use of machines and clicks during their concerts. Instead, they embrace the raw power of live instruments, providing an electrifying experience that resonates with the audience on a deeper level.

With the awesome Flex opening the show. It will be a thrilling night.
