Clock Opera may have only existed back in early 2009 as Guy Connelly’s project to coalesce the whirling sounds of his head into discernible tracks, but the four-piece that Clock Opera have morphed into in the intervening years have gone beyond gigs at festival ‘introducing’ stages to a...

Friday 19th October Fuzzy-headed, but feeling we were almost veterans by now, so much had we crammed into 36 hours already. But there’s always more you can do at ADE. In the case of Friday, it was more panels, interviews, and a rendezvous with Hawtin. Or so we thought. Having found our...
