Once a year the wide world of math/post/prog/instrumental rock turns its attention to Fernhill Farm where the finest musical craftsmen descend upon the Arc, Yohkai, Bixler and Px3 to be worshipped by everyone who is anyone involved in this burgeoning scene. ArcTanGent is the HQ, the spearhead and the hub of this ever-growing musical community and for the past 4 years has championed the very finest acts from all around the world. Here are 5 (In no particular order) that Yeah Buddy! recommends at this years event;
Who?
Kusanagi are Merseysides finest export when it comes to riffcentric music of this ilk.

Who?
Hailing from Brighton, Poly-Math have made 2016 their bitch and with ATG on the horizon they will not be looking to let up now.
What?
Listen to the excellent ‘Meloncolia’ here http://superstardestroyer.co.uk/album/melencolia
Why?
I tend not to ever argue with the recommendations of Superstar Destroyer Records having had Alpha Male Tea Party, Vasquez and Ninetails in their ranks over the years. This year they have made Poly-Math their project and it has worked. Thursday afternoon is going to be loud.
