SCALPING are a Bristol based live techno band.

Scalping have quickly become known for blistering performances and astute production, formed through a love of their hometown’s visionary off-the-wall dance music as well as full throttle noise and punk. Each show incorporates dark, hypnotic projected visuals.

In their relatively short time as a band they have supported acclaimed acts such as Marie Davidson, Ho99o9, Black Mass, Holy Fuck and Bliss Signal whilst quickly gaining a reputation for their frenzied closing slots at festivals.

Armed with a battery of squelching synths, animalistic rhythms and gritty, piercing guitars, the band have been meticulous in their selection of shows to deliver the most visceral audio-visual experience. Clouded in mystery, their devoted fans are always left baying for more.

'Messed up in the best possible way...completely immersive and disorientating” NME

”Tinges of HEALTH's earlier, mayhem-ier roots glint through the chaos...these sounds are not really like anything else about” - Line of Best Fit

“Mesmerising intensity. It’s confident and fully-formed, genre-melting experimentalism.” Bristol in Stereo

“Bristol’s best live band…they stand unparalleled’ - Bristol Live Mag.

“The best audio-visual experience I’ve had since seeing Chris Cunningham (The videographer involved here has clearly taken inspiration from him) live with pounding Aphex Twin drill & bass. The best techno I’ve seen since Siriusmodeselektor at the Warehouse Project in Manchester..” - Louder than War

Support:

DWELLINGS x LOCEAN:

A collaboration between GNOD co-founder Chris Haslam and poet, provocateur and vocalist of one of MCR's finest bands, Lauren Bolger of LOCEAN. Bolger’s shamanic sensual vocal style over these clean pulsating beats from Haslam have a pure 5am on the dance floor vibe, covering Trap, Dub, Techno and dare I say it Pop.

SLAP RASH:

In the couple of years since SLAP RASH leapt into the Manchester underground, their wall of noise and viscous live performance has been turning heads... Their blend of “machine-like blasts of drum work”, roaring bass and brooding synth has led to them opening for the likes of JOHN at The Castle Hotel, Melt Banana at Gorilla, and selling out their debut headliner at The Eagle Inn. They’re an unrelenting force with a lot to say, and this is just the beginning.

BEATS OF RAGE DJs:

Many moons ago, Preston saw the birth of an eclectic & eccentric event which bent all the rules, dragging the city’s music scene deep into a promiscuous relationship between mangled guitars and odd-ball dance music. We called it: BEATS OF RAGE.
