This week marks a decade since our first gig, so we thought we’d share some new music for the first time in maybe 6 years in remembrance of things past. 

More and newer music will emerge in the coming weeks and months.

Svenonius vs Childish was recorded and mixed by us in Königsheckenhaus and Suite 16 during 2013, 2017 and 2018 and features the Mouth of Theresa Elflein. If the drums sound familiar then you’ll have worked out why this is the first cab off the rank.

Bricolotheque Go To Bristol

Bricolotheque are Matt Abysmal and Rob Lucas. They make music but they are not musicians, and this will never be their career.

There have been seven years of quiet. These years are now hopefully over. New songs will emerge here in early 2018.

Bricolotheque have been fortunate to play shows with The Fall, The Whip, The Fiery Furnaces, Times New Viking, Wolf Alice, Yuck, Shrag, Ultrasound, The Chap, Kate Jackson, Sissy and the Blisters and Peace, to name a few.

"Bricolotheque are a two-piece dark ambient outfit, who decked out the stage with keys and electronic apparatus. Previous research into Bricolotheque discovered that they’re a band who describes themselves as, “better at writing songs than they are at playing them” and after tonight I would argue they’re underselling themselves, the songs were great but the performance was just as. Bricolotheque were loud, possibly the loudest we’ve heard in The Portland’s petite backroom, yet through the noise and heavy sub bass there was no distortion. And vocalist Matt Abysmal played the protagonist, juddering and animated, and literally breached the gap between stage and audience. Bricolotheque deployed icy keys that chilled more than the cold snowing airing outside. Foremost it has to be said that Bricolotheque are an outfit you’ll have a definite yes or no opinion, their industrial 80’s ambience, circa The KLF, is not the style or genre to collate fence sitters. Liked or disliked, all in attendance will agree Bricolotheque were unforgettable."

"Punk as fuck"

- Eleanor Friedberger, The Fiery Furnaces, September 2009.

"Bricolotheque, Cambridge’s very own version of the KLF, opened the show with a respectable set, although perhaps the agitated audience desperately fidgeting for their post-punk fix were not quite ready for their synth-based collages."
