This video documents various London parks and the general public going about
their daily routines. Orange wrapped gym equipment takes the appearance of ravers
stuck mid-dance. Fortified monoliths are upturned by the people into eerie places of
worship.
Filmed over the year 2020 - and tugging at the fringes of rave - the iconic HERAS fence
became repurposed as a pandemic object by local councils in an attempt to stop
people exercising on outdoor gym equipment.
‘Wearing it Wrong EP’ is the second release from record label HERAS, founded by
London based rag-tag collective Sports Banger. Written and recorded four years ago
over three days at Devon Analogue. Mat Playford rides synth, Special Request bangs
drums, Jonny Banger loads samples, Tommy D plasters walls. Engineered by Trish
Lad. Mastered at Curve.
Pigeons fly in and out of the COOP.
