From the grooves of vinyl: A tribute to Philip Jeck

Doors/Bar 6.30pm
£10
As a tribute to Philip Jeck who died in 2022, the Bluecoat presents an evening of film and performance in celebration of the life and work of this remarkable composer and artist who wrought exquisite sounds from the worn grooves of old records. An internationally renowned pioneer of experimental ‘turntablism’, he brought old record players and vinyl together with electronic effects to create expansive sonic landscapes. Throughout his career he worked with dance and theatre makers, visual artists and musicians and composers across the musical spectrum.
Philip had a three-decades association with the Bluecoat and this special tribute includes screening of a film by Gina Czarnecki of him performing in the intimate surroundings of a friend’s kitchen. There will be the launch of a double CD tribute to Philip by his label, Touch and performances from experimental composers Chandra Shukla (US), Benjamin Duvall and Andrew Hunt (Liverpool) and poets Patricia Farrell and Robert Sheppard. The bar is open till 11pm, with DJ set from Bryan Biggs.
