Cold Dead Hands Collective

We formed in 2003, with members involved in the Edinburgh hardcore/punk scene for over ten years. We organize local DIY gigs, teaming touring bands from the UK and abroad with local based bands. All the money on the door goes back to the bands. We have had everything from grindcore/metal/doom/noise through to acoustic singer songwriters.
Edinburgh Composers Collective

The Edinburgh Composers Collective was formed in February of 2008 to help give composers based in Edinburgh opportunities for performances. We try to connect local composers with ensembles, dancers, actors, film-makers, visual artists, etc. who are interested in new music.
Eleropapknit
www.myspace.com/electropapknit
After being on tour in Europe we have realised that the majority of promoters in Britain are shit. We aim to do it the European way with food, some space to sleep for the night and at the very least money towards fuel costs. We put on shows in Aberdeen & Glasgow.
Halt Bar Hijack
Halt Bar Hijack! Every saturday in the Halt Bar on Woodlands road. Free Bands and DJs
MRW44
Promoter, label and mail order based in Edinburgh. Live shows feature a mixture of local artists and established international acts making electronic, experimental and post-rock music. Past gigs have featured bands such as Guapo, Venetian Snares, Khanate and Sunburned Hand of the Man.
Nuts & Seeds
Nuts and Seeds promote independent music in Glasgow. We have been in existence in one form or another since 2002 putting on gigs for bands touring the UK. All the money made on the door going to covering costs and paying the bands and consequently there are no guestlists. Every effort is made to keep music inclusive, cheap, anti-elitist and fun.
The Organisation
www.myspace.com/thisistheorganisation
since 2008 'the organisation' has been held responsible for various club nights, gigs and community events occurring mainly around Glasgow, Scotland (However they're believed to have international affiliations). 'the organisation' are accused of highlighting new sound-centric music to new audiences in eclectic and surreal settings. They are seen as a danger to mass consumerism and profitable recreation. Be aware, 'the organisation' are everywhere. the organisation meets on the last thursday of every month
