Out today, the first new Cathode recording for **13 years**! Sorry it took a while. It's a remix for the totally lush @summer_nightair with vocals from Jennie Brewis. Get amongst it!

[Cathode @CathodeNcl]

Thanks loads for this kind review of the gig @AliWelford @narc_magazine 🙏

[Cathode @CathodeNcl]

So... the Cathode archive is on Spotify now for your listening pleasure. Here's a playlist to get you started! Endless thanks to @bradleykulisic for his help in sorting this. https://t.co/SFthl3ZVkS

People are mint. You do a gig, organised by lovely folk, engineered by a skilled technician, on a bill with obscenely talented compatriots, attended by the most enthusiastic bunch of friends I both have and haven't met yet. I am so glad I made Newcastle my home

[Cathode @CathodeNcl]

TODAY! a whole day of electronic goodness, Outside this afternoon at the sunny @thecumby, and inside tonight.

@the_game_cat @thecumby I hope he was wearing his semiotic trousers at the time!

[Cathode @CathodeNcl]

So... *last* time at @thecumby was the 2008 launch party for "Sparkle Plenty", the album which also got our only ever review in The Wire, courtesy of Rock Expert David Stubbs. The 14 year gap is nearly up! See you on Saturday xx

[Cathode @CathodeNcl]

We've checked under the bed, and Expanding Records have looked in their shed, and we turned up this lovely batch of Cathode releases, including the last vinyl copies of Special Measures. All for sale at the @thecumberlandarms gig this Saturday! #newcastle #glitch #electronica

[Cathode @CathodeNcl]

Full circle! @narc_magazine preview this Saturday's gig... and here's the first ever issue from 2006 with Cathode on the cover! 🙏 Thanks to NARC and @StaggerLeeF

[Cathode @CathodeNcl]

The highpoint of Cathode's live career: Version festival, 2005, onboard a german fishing trawler moored on Newcastle Quayside.Look at that lineup! Enables me to just about claim I shared a stage with my heroes Pan Sonic. Endless thanks to @tusk_music and Amino for the privilege

[Cathode @CathodeNcl]

Cathode didn't play outside Newcastle much but there were a few memorable ones, including Berlin thanks to @carocsound, Leeds w/Randomnumber and Norberg - an electronic noise festival in a Swedish power station - with the Expanding Records lot #electronica #glitch #Newcastle

[Cathode @CathodeNcl]

Some compilations and remixes with Cathode contributions. Nice extras in the 555 comp. Also @AndrewHodson100's (first) ode to the Metro, "Map Music" which featured a Cathode remix #Newcastle #electronica #glitch

@StaggerLeeF 🤣

[Cathode @CathodeNcl]

@AndrewHodson100 @NewcastleCastle That's right! Think I remember getting into some ableton chat quite quickly!

[Cathode @CathodeNcl]

Another 2002 gig, at @NewcastleCastle with Bola and Gescom (i.e. Autechre) from Skam records.  I remember bricking it for this one but getting a good reaction that made me think Cathode would be worth sticking with.

[Cathode @CathodeNcl]
