Get hi-res pdf of Redmonk's artwork for Ed Devane Live at the Joy Gallery here.
We've finally gotten our act together and sorted out our venue related teething problems.
We can confirm that the next Second Square to None will be taking place on 28th of June in the Twisted Pepper.
In keeping with the ethos we've laid out from the start its gonna remain a cheap day out with no admission charge and we're assured there'll be some decent discounts at the bar to boot!
So SPREAD THE WORD and check here in the coming days for a completed line-up.
Whoop!

Right here is the first of the exclusive Second Square To None Monday downloads.
"Journey through Sprung Land while sipping hot whiskey and wrapped in warm yellow blankets. Occasionally noise blurs and blizzards obstruct your view; sonic squirrels throw rocks but miss. Wooded valleys loom as dusk approaches, and then!
..it's over.

Ingredients:
- #1 toy megaphone
- #1 home-made baritone zither with multiple pick-ups
- #1 Mac laptop running Ableton Live
- #1 dictaphone with a tape I made about 10 years ago - prank phone calls etc.
- #1 distortion effect
- #1 autopan effect
- #1 pitch shifter effect
- #1 loop sampler
- #1 8 channel mixer
- #1 Ed Devane
This was the first liveset to be played at Second Square to None, on a freezing cold Sunday at the end of November 2008. There were no heaters in the Joy Gallery and only a handful of people in attendance (for it was 12.30pm)."

Just to say again, anyone who makes music, art or any permutation of those two loose descriptions of creative output, get in touch if you think you're good enough! We are especially interested in meeting folk who make visuals / video art, people who do interesting things with lights / dynamic colour and folk willing to do cover artwork for our mini-label. If you're reading this and don't do any of those things but know someone who might, let them know.
Samples of work/links can be sent here.
Audio can be uploaded to our Drop Box on Soundcloud.
Depending on people's willingness to invest time and effort we'd like to facilitate one-off multimedia projects at our gigs, by allowing artist of different expertise to work together. For instance a music maker teams up with a video artist to create thematically linked music/visuals; instrumentalists ("real" musicians!) work with studio boffins (those of us more comfortable making/performing music with the help of a computer) and lighting artists make a surround sound synaesthetic wonderland in a dingy nightclub; web designers versed in interactive visual software work with sound designers versed in generative audio software to make audience-controlled interactive entities etc. etc. etc.
Unemployed post-grad media students and creative veterans alike we want you.
No jobs, no future, just loads of time that could be spent doing something constructive while you wait for your dole to come through and the combination of swine flu, nuclear war, starvation etc. to really throw salt in the recession wound! Woopee!
Call back here, or check the RSS feed for those of you into that sort of thing.
Cheers,
Team Second Square to None
