The band formed in the West London Ladbroke Grove squatter community in 1974. They performed at the Watchfield free festival in August 1975. In 1977 Daevid Allen and Gilli Smyth recruited the band to tour with them under the name Planet Gong, and this combination released a live album Floating Anarchy 1977. The band toured extensively in 1980 and 1981 living on their converted bus. This included the free summer festivals of Deeply Vale, Stonehenge and Glastonbury. The hallmark of the gigs was that they were always free entrance and funds were helped with a collection. In 2009 a new line-up was announced: Gwyo ZePix, Slim Verhoef, Nik Nimbus and Keith the Bass. In 2011 Mark Robson of Kangaroo Moon and Magick Brothers took the helm of Keyboards and Vocals. |

In the late 1980's Robert Calvert asked if we'd record his next album with him. Sadly, Robert died before any recording took place. 20 years later we were asked to perform at a tribute concert in Bob's memory. Our new CD "The Flame Red Superstar" is 13 Robert Calvert songs injected with all the ideas we would have taken to the sessions with Bob, and if the number of strange co-incidences during recording are an indication, this was always meant to happen... |

Zetan Spore were formed in West Cornwall by Ian Hasdell in 1995. After being inspired by psychedelic rock in the late 80's and it's evolution into early dance acts such as Eat Static and Astralasia, and then by the birth of psytrance in the 90's, Ian bought a second hand Amiga 1200 computer and started arranging samples to form his own style of psychedelic dance music. After releasing his first album, "Alien Frequencies" in 1996 his twin brother Mark came on board, playing guitar and didgeridoo. |

A spacey, punky festival kinda feel. Or Autumn morning mushroom music. Think how it goes is steve had got restless after not picking his guitar up for almost twenty years and wanted to get a band together. Jewls and Steve had known Darren a few years and knew he had a drum kit in the chicken shed that he used to bash in but the chickens took over.Steve asked him if he was interested in taking it back up because he had been messing about at home with some electro pads. That was guitar, drums and sax sorted. Finding a bassist was a bit harder. Steve had been introduced to Paul by Jewls who had known him for years. A while passed and Steve was getting down about the bass issue. After sneaking away to watch football with Paul they chatted about music. Steve persuaded Paul to get a synth. After a rethink Jewls took up bass and PanDemonIum was hatched in 2006. |

Since forming at the end of 2010, Glowpeople seems to be continuing its largely unpredictable and improvisational direction. New grooves just seem to happen. We don't really work to a genre or any self imposed style restrictions. The songs just come out as they come out, really. It's almost as if independent of what we the mere muzos might have had planned for them! |

That Legendary Wooden Lion formed in 2007 but it's roots go way way back into the 70s.

From deepest darkest Somerset come the Chumley Warner Bros. Fresh, seasonal and mind-boggling as the local farmhouse cider. Formed in 2008 AD, they fuse Guitar, EWI and Cabasa into a subtle blend of reactionary post-industrial alt-country (meaningless music journo pigeon-holing bullshit...blah blah) acoustic space punk music thing. Hmmmm... |

How many of you know a friend that has a band that you're sure is gonna be "the next big thing"? That's kind of what we have here. Not so many bands could commend with always growing and improving catalogue and with three albums out of three, The Grand Astoria lands down the ground which not so many of them have walked before. This Russian band comes with prosperity and it's highly recommendable to listen to their masterfully threesome after having a successful day. You might feel really delighted. |

A genuine cult band, The Tribe of Cro are one of the unsung heroes of the underground festival scene. For over 15 years they have been waving their freak flag high to the sound of free festival psychedelics, driving krautrock rhythms,spacey liquid electronica soaked in a skip load of stoner riffing guitars. From the tops of mountains to the depths of Eastern Europe TOC have played many of the major underground and psychedelic festivals in UK and Europe. Formed in 1995, they drew members from various alternative south coast bands, including Mandragora, The Great Imperial Yoyo, Giant Eyes, Wobble Jaggle Jiggle. An initial jam led to tours of Europe where the T.O.C. sound was honed. This was captured to great effect on albums such as 'Sporadic Spyrogyra', 'Hydroculture', 'Virtual Vinyl' and the latest ltd edition CD ' Mavacanto Flavourslime'. |

Having gone through various metamorphoses, Xoo are an unsigned London-based rock act. They combine metal and rock infleunces, with space and progressive traditions, to create a potent new sound. They acknowledge their heritage, yet they are not retro. Their trademark sound is that of classic rock guitar, driving basslines and drumming, but layered with synth textures and electronic... patterns. Most recognisible is their rich, melodic, harmony vocal sound and catchy, memorable song writing. |

After a fabulously fun set at Kozfest 2011 with the Starfighters, Dani and Steve found themselves floating free but adrift in autumn 2011, with very few charts of the high seas but sufficent kit to make something of the situation. An inspired extremely spacey jam (Decoding The Senses) needed posting and it needed a name. So The Timelords of old were reborn on SoundAwesome as 2 very experienced but under-gigged musos just itching to get out on the road. Steve and Dani both handle guitar/synth/voice and with the addition of Sammy P and Sam H on bass and drums the sound has become a psychedelic punky rock and rollin space-out groove.(!) |

The band came together in the spring of 2005 when David (after 5 years of tabla study) realized a band had to come into being... Heavily influenced by the psychedelic music of the sixties and the stoner vibes of today a line-up of musicians was put together....after several band membership changes the group has settled down to David and new guitarists Connor & Andrew.Connor has a background in folk-roc...k where he honed his quite formidible musical skills...Andrew has a background in sound enhancement and recording and like Connor has soaked up psychedelic and world musics from around the globe...this line-up promises a new sound/a new direction and we look forward to it eagerly....... |

The Apache John Band is a fusion of acoustic folk, blues, rock and late 60's psychedelia. Sometimes theatrical, sometimes dark and moody, sometimes amusing; a band that carries the spirit of the festival with mainly original songs and music which can be played around a festival fire as easily as on any stage. Apache John & Amazon Jan felt the time was right to take the band on a new project using self penned songs which spanned four decades, called on their old friends Andi & Julia, who were more than happy to take up their current positions in the line up. |
