“Helicon show that musical borders are there to be broken... A force to be reckoned with.” ~ Shindig
“The difference between Helicon and other ‘psych’ bands is that they have actual songs. Beautifully crafted songs alongside the big psychedelic freakouts” ~ Mark Gardener, RIDE
“I’ve been a fan since their early incarnation. Helicon have a recognisable sound but are always evolving, never afraid to try something new” ~ Martin Bulloch, Mogwai
Kavus Torabi
A British-Iranian musician, composer, record label owner and radio broadcaster Kavus Torabi is a multi-instrumentalist, and is known for his work in the psychedelic, avant-garde rock field (primarily as a guitarist). Torabi was one of the founding members of the Monsoon Bassoon (as singer, guitarist and one of the two primary composers), was a member of the cult rock band Cardiacs, and fronts and plays guitar for the current lineup of legendary psychedelic band Gong.
Farmer Jules spins 60s beat and garbage from both sides of the pond and beyond. B-sides, rare bangers and underplayed classics on original 7inch vinyl. (When not spinning tunes he’s tending to his flock of sheep on the downs).
