∑GG√E|N is in some ways the most important project for me and much like a surrogate family. Throughout a period of deep grief, lock downs, travel restrictions and complete blackout for live music we have managed to keep the ∑√ rehearsals happening with a stable line up. Myself playing guitar as David Ethix, Magus O’pus voxing, Max Doubt playing various basses and Cal C. Um smashing it on the drums. We were able to add Sylva Vy to this line up on piano for the recording of our recent album 1.1% Didication that we recorded at Alchemix studio in West End. For the launch at Backbone and subsequent Pandemic Gig at Chardons corner Back Room we brought in guitar player Jackson Perrot from Demolition Groove Unit. A big part of this process was also making/producing the physical object of the CD itself, which included CD packaging, lyric sheet, poster, tote bag and eventually a line of t-shirts. For this ∑√ worked with artist Summer Hiskins-Ravest who designed with us the artwork and produced the prints.
