Match and Fuse Festival

Jez Nelson presents music from the inaugural Match and Fuse Festival in London, including the prog/funk-inspired World Service Project and Irish quartet RedivideR.

Jez Nelson presents music from the inaugural Match & Fuse Festival in London. The event brings together young bands from across Europe who share a fun and often irreverent approach to their music. Its director, Dave Morecroft, is also the leader of one of the featured bands: British quintet World Service Project, in which the influences of Frank Zappa, disco, prog and thrash metal can all be heard. The programme also includes music by Irish 'two-horns-no-chords' quartet RedivideR, who blend groove-based and freely improvised music, drawing on south Indian Carnatic music and a love of palindromes. A second programme featuring more music from the festival will be broadcast later in the year.

Presenter: Jez Nelson
Producers: Peggy Sutton & Chris Elcombe.
