SP23 (formerly
Spiral Tribe) are putting on a rare event in London on 19 April, at Village
Underground, London EC2.
They say:
'In the early 90s,
members of SP23 were all working with the Spiral Tribe Sound System. A creative
collective that openly aligned itself with the free party and free festival
movements. At the core of the free music scene were values of sharing, openness
and inclusion. Values that should have a place in society, but in a country
ruled by the ideologies of Thatcherite privatisation, they were not to be
tolerated. After a year of organising events in remote locations, the Spiral
Tribe Sound System learnt this the hard way.
As opposition from the authorities grew to the free
festival and free party movement, members of Spiral Tribe began thinking of
leaving the country. Though key figures within the group had been arrested and
bailed (for allegedly organising the famous Castlemorton Common free festival)
the sound system (and a mobile recording studio) managed to escape to Europe in
a convoy of matt black military vehicles...
Nine of the original Spirals, now work independently as
successful producers, artists and/or performers. But they still work together –
under the name SP23. 23 years ago SP23 began a nomadic journey with the Spiral
Tribe Sound System, operating strictly underground. Today, as an international
creative collective and pioneers of live electronic dance music, SP23 play
regularly to packed venues across Europe. This April, the full SP23 crew will be
returning to the UK for one London date'
