about

As we go about our daily lives, malodorous monsters are constructing themselves from our discarded detritus beneath the streets of our cities.

Built from wet wipes, nappies, food waste, fats and oils, fatbergs haunt us as a nightmarish return of the soiled, rejected and rotten.

Once these behemoths get a foothold in our sewers, they silently grow and spread, alerting us to their malignant presence via sewage overflows and blockages.

On Fatbergs, Rubbish Music take the stinking and roiling matter of fatbergs as their starting point. Across five compositions the duo turns to sound to examine the complex and unpredictable encounters which generate these gigantic conglomerations.

In this contemporary anti-fairytale fatbergs exist as trolls of our pipelines, amplifying a version of waste itself as an active presence. In this story flushing things away is not an ending, but a new beginning”
