Prhizzm Genaro and special guest Robin Guthrie performing "Lumiere" Promotional text Robin Guthrie "Founding member of Cocteau Twins will be special guest at our showcase event. Robin travels from his home in France to perform his music-to-film montage, Lumiére, for the first time in Scotland. The Cocteau Twin's influence on independent music during the 80s and 90s is arguably the most important, very quickly reaching cult status and worldwide respect, via the classic 4AD label. After the demise of the band Robin went on to form his own label with fellow Twin, Simon Raymonde, named Bella Union, and records and tours with his own band, Violet Indiana. His Lumiére project however, is something quite special. The film was produced by Robin and he plays a specially written piece to accompany it, which has never been issued as a recorded release. Hear it played live - this is possibly the only chance you will ever get!!!" Reverbaphon "makes a welcome return to play live and debut his forthcoming album on Benbecula "Our Heart Beats with Joy (The Curved World Outside)", due out in November. Promo copies have already received good rotation from radio worldwide - watch out for some major press quotes soon.Reverbaphon's past live appearances include performing alongside VVM, Scanner and support slots with Fourtet earlier this year."   Christ. "Benbecula's best selling artist Christ. is no stranger to the live circuit, having recently played Finland, France and of course supported Schneider TM on the British leg of his recent European tour, and later went on to record a live session for the Radio 1 John Peel show (Peel requested and received an encore!). With his forthcoming EP now complete, his live show will feature brand new tracks against a specially commissioned graphic backdrop." Prhizzm "complements the line up by flying direct from Toronto to promote his forthcoming Benbecula EP, due out this Christmas. In autumn of 2004, we will see the release of the National Film Board of Canada Remix compilation, "-40", to be released on CD/DVD through c0c0s0l1dc1t1 records. Prhizzm has contributed an original soundtrack to the archive footage, alongside other Canadian artists such as Venetian Snares and Akufen. His debut EP for Benbecula has to be heard to be believed so his first live date in Europe should prove to be a belter! Do not miss it." Live Recording The Benbecula artists were recorded and later broadcast by Radio Magnetic.     Credits Christ. video by Gav Livingstone Genaro video by Blair Young @ Forest of Black Photography by Arch Stanton and Conn 75 Short film "Views" by Ben Ewart-Dean PA by Pro Sound Services, Glasgow Thanks to Robin and Florence, Eric @ The Arches.
