“What can we say? It’s three burning souls converging. Danceable anti-fascist free punk improvised electronic creative moment music, all friends and regular collaborators uplifting and upholding each other in the music, pushing each other to unfold in real time in a sonic and filmic landscape. A single candle alone can light up a room or burn down the house, we aim to burn bright. We light up the darkness that surrounds and confuses and burn down preconceptions. We put beauty back into the soil with heat and intention. Occasionally, on a great night, we burn down the house. What’s needed in this moment-the reflection of the light refracting back into the body, the rhythm, the soul-all at once, at peace, in time, right now. Not hurriedly, not slow, but in tune and time with the universe.” - jaimie branch
