Devon Rexi meets John T. Gast

Devon Rexi are an Amsterdam-based interdimensional dub group formed by a core trio of Nicola Reverda (Nicolini), Nushin Naini, and Goya van der Heyden (La Rat). In this formation, they skirt and flirt around a motorik kraut-rock mentality with an indubiously dub-laden physicality and an uncategorisable sense of experimentation. The shifted realities of Devon Rexi’s music arrive like quantum conjurings, as if their frequencies echo from the furthest wormholes of space. As much as they create something fantastical and yet-unheard, their priority is in understanding vulnerability and friction, reality and fragility, mythologies and everyday resistances. They do this artfully through an almost deceptively simple arrangement of percussion, bass, and melody. Following two lauded EPs on South of North, Devon Rexi prepare to release their much-anticipated debut album, made with the elusive 5 Gate Temple devotee John T. Gast. He joins Devon Rexi in a special appearance as they return to Rewire festival to perform one of their untethered live sets, featuring music from the forthcoming album.
