WispyDisc Presents: Beyond the Blue & Maliki

WispyDisc Presents: Beyond the Blue & Maliki

If you aren’t yet familiar with Beyond the Blue, now is the time to get familiar - there’s no doubt this band is going places. Performing their first ever London headline show at Amp Studios, Beyond the Blue are an exciting up-and-coming London based jazz band, featuring a unique array of instrumentation, including cello.

The dynamic septet have developed a sound brimming with atmosphere, ranging from softly expressive to explosively experimental that proves impossible not to move to. Beyond the Blue are fast gaining the recognition they deserve, with sell-out shows across London and Brighton, including opening sets for well established bands such as Blue Lab Beats and Ebi Soda.

Be sure to check out their latest Live Session recordings on YouTube. New music is also on the way for the group under the label Speak No Evil, which they will be sharing with us on the night.

Maliki are an impressive two-piece hailing from West London, featuring pianist Filip Sowa and drummer Thomas Sunney. Drawing influence from the world of film, art and a vast array of music, the band’s music features melodic landscapes and propulsive drums. As well as composing as a duo, the band continues to develop their sound with a unique catalogue of London’s most up-and-coming musicians.

Having headlined recently at Hootnanny Brixton, look forward to hearing artfully descriptive compositions, with atmospheric builds into full, cinematic moments. Maliki’s emotive sound will likely blow you away. Having recently signed to Gondwana records, the band are working towards exciting new releases in 2023, some of which we will be hearing on the night!

Mr Hare & Mr Hare (brothers Adam from Subconscious Audio and Billy from Tanhai Collective) will be closing the night with a liveset fusing jazz and funk with energetic hiphop beats, dub grooves and jungle breaks. Blending analog synthesizers, dub delays, sampling and turntables, the electronic bed gives free reign for mesmerising chords and fast fingered riffs to float over the top. Breaking down tracks into their fundamental parts to build them back up while remixing and improvising on the fly, no two performances are the same. 

These three exceptionally exciting bands will be paired with visuals from a selection of artists TBA, making WispyDisc’s debut event at Amp Studios a creative, atmospheric space to immerse yourself into. Come on down!
