New Gyratory System EP
Fresh off the back of supporting Soulwax for two sold out shows at Brixton Academy in December, Gyratory System are now set to release the ‘Yowser Yowser Yowser EP’ with four new tracks to accompany the new take on ‘Yowser Yowser Yowser’ from the LP. Dr Andrew Blick, the effects trumpet player, producer and driving force behind Gyratory System has once again invented some of the most original and “out there” sonics you’re likely to hear for a long time. All of which are sure to grab your attention and give you some insight into the recording and production technique he created dubbed ‘The Process’.
It’s been described as “sounding like a marching band on acid”, which seems quite apt although what might surprise is how comfortable it sits on the dancefloor, something we doubt was considered during ‘The Process’. The E.P will be followed in March by a ‘Yowser Yowser Yowser Remix EP’, featuring mixes from Twitch (Optimo), DJ Egor, Cherrystones, Meek Joe and Alalal.
Gyratory System will also be taking the Process on the road for a mini-tour in Feb:
11th Feb - Manchester - Deaf Institute (With Ebsen & The Witch and Sian Alice Group)
12th Feb - Sheffield - Bungalows & Bears
13th Feb - Leeds - A Nation Of Shopkeepers
16th Feb - London - White Heat @ Madame JoJos
20th Feb - London - Cable Street Riot at Jamboree, Cable Street Studios
21st Feb - Glasgow - Optimo
27th Feb- London - The Rest Is Noise (supporting DUM DUM GIRLS) (TBC)

Several new remixes of Yowser Yowser Yowser will also be surfacing in March.
