Melt Yourself Down: Momentum
Melt Yourself Down is the sound of Cairo ’57, Cologne ’72, New York ’78, London 2013. Sounds you can taste and smell: fierce post-punk, discordant funk and wild sonic voodoo.
Centred around saxophonist Pete Wareham, they number some of the finest musicians in the land, spanning jazz, rock and world music. Live, they’re a tropical storm, lit up and led by Kushal Gaya, part finger-pointing punk shaman, part proselytising preacherman. Their message: Melt Yourself Down and turn yourself up.
“The Momentum Music Fund is a fantastic initiative and we are very grateful to be recipients of such significant support. This will enable us to pay for enough studio time to really take our album to the next level.” Pete Wareham, Melt Yourself Down
The Momentum funding awarded will go towards the production and release of Melt Yourself Down’s second album.
