Clock Opera at cargo – 29 January, 2010

A cold night to be out, so it was good to be inside the cavernous space that is Cargo in Shoreditch.

Sadly someone had seen fit to make the inside even cooler by switching the air con to ‘ice age’ setting but fortunately a quiet word from a gentlemen in authority led to a b bit more heat.

So it was that Clock Opera played their first London gig of the year (that I have been to at least). They were just back from Bournemouth and they have been busy.

Clock Opera have a single – White Noise – buy it today!

Those of you who have followed Clock Opera as they have wowed the audience will already know that there’s many a digital tune to be had from their myspace page and they have been drip feeding the industry with their nuggets of pure creativity for some time now.

But this is not digits, not ones and zeroes, not a emailable packet of pure information, no, not at all. This is a seven inch vinyl release of White Noise (and with the hauntingly melodic Alouette on the B side you have twice the pleasure).

Clock Opera and Tangled Feet combine for multimedia dance and lights spectacular

Nabokov Arts Club, Village Underground, Shoreditch.

An evening of entertainment featuring a host of acts from Luke Wirght compering through performance poetry from Josh Idehen, live DJ sets, comedy and theatre. But most impressive was set by Clock Opera which intertwined with the world premiere of Showtime by Tangled Feet.

Oh Inverted World – 8 October 2009

Here are some pictures from the Oh Inverted World gig at the Hoxton Square Bar and Kitchen on October 8 2009.

Clock Opera play at Oh Inverted World

Clock Opera, Guy, Nick, Andy and Che, were at Oh Inverted World at the Hoxton Bar and Kitchen on a playbill that featured Gaggle, So Say So and La Shark along with DJ sets as well.

There are pictures of all the bands to be put up here but for the moment here’s our favourite up and coming, should be signed already, band – Clock Opera.

Bootstock – DJ Zebra

Take one great festival, take one 40th anniversary celebration and take one great mashup artist and mix them together.

What you get is Bootstock a concept album put together by DJ Zebra for the 40th anniversary celebrations of the grand daddy of all festivals, Woodstock.

Using a mix of studio recordings, live festival recordings and the Woodstock movie, DJ Zebra has put together what is probably one best mashup concept albums of the year, and a close contender with The Kleptones’ 24 Hours for my personal favourite mashup concept of all time.

Clock Opera at YOYO, Notting Hill Arts Club

Bring some photo id, your on the guest list but they like to be careful.

Welcome to YOYO, venue for some pretty high profile acts in the past and now venue for Clock Opera, not once but twice in ten days. Last week on the 21st of July they were with Marina and the Diamonds and last night they were with GhostCat who headlined the evening with some raucous rock that had the audience joining in.
