Bathysphere

Bathysphere is an artist-lead music production company and record label based in Leicester, producing electronica and twisted folk using a hybrid of existing and custom-built instruments and equipment. They produce audio-visual work in collaboration with other artists. Moving-image meets holiday-making inside Bathysphere's Nanoplex – a tiny venue for big ideas. Nanoplex is the world's first mobile new media centre to be hidden inside a family caravan. Bathysphere have converted a family six berth caravan into a state-of-the-art micro-sized cinema venue to show the kind of groundbreaking visual and sonic trickery for which they are internationally renowned.

The Wire Headphone mix compiled by The Wire / Anne Hilde Neset is a compilation of works providing an historical backdrop for electronic music. Featuring works by Edgard Varèse, George Antheil, John Cage, Halim El-Dabh, Pierre Schaeffer, Milton Babbitt and others, this particular headphone mix features a rare chance to hear the very first examples of musical compositions to feature non-musical/electronic elements in an otherwise classical setting.
