++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++ ++provider_dead++site_down>>:( ++undertheradar.net<relocating data> ---------------------------------------------------------- 07.02.02:: Headphone Science/Kenric McDowell/Zygote/Roby(of Sweet Trip) ::26 Mix (Mission @26th, SF) ::$3 / 21+ Headphone Science (No Type/Skylab):: http://www.illmatikvibes.com/elastic.html The line between electronica and outright musical experimentation blurs more on a daily basis. Headphone Science mines this vein, drawing from John Cage, Lee Perry, and The Orb in seemingly equal measure. Dub-structured tunes include outer-space sounds and mind-bending samples that seem to bend toward the zoological. The use of samples is very interesting. Tiny vocal clips become rhythmic elements, funky handclaps are sterilized into dub submission, rainstorms, industrial clangs, and baseball umpires become seamless parts of a singular vision. Look to the work of Pierre Schaeffer, French academic and barely-acknowledged father of all electronic music. His spacious tape-slash soundcollages would have felt pretty much at home next to HS’s dub oddities. Zygote (Under the Radar/Alectric/Overlap):: http://www.discogs.com/artist/Zygote Have you ever tried to express your emotions through machines? It's an akward process. The machines have their own ideas, their own objectives, their own criteria. Zygote (aka Stephen Ruiz) takes the mechianized process of electronic music production, then pushes complex human feelings through the cold exterior of machines. But tonight, he's just DJ'ing... :) Kenric McDowell (Darla/Fallt/Overlap):: http://www.artslut.org/ Images and sounds sit on the border of intention and chance: they are attempts to reconnect with an everyday that is increasingly complicated and mediated by technology. His work heightens the spectator's awareness of existing situations through a combination of conceptual art techniques, digital tools and finely tuned observational faculties. Roby (of Sweet Trip)(Darla):: http://www.epitonic.com/artists/sweettrip.html Sweet Trip is a San Francisco-based trio, best known for their colorful and unique fusion of classic pop songcraft, warm analog synth tones, and vintage Fender strings. Their sound is what the name suggests, a lovely odyssey into constantly shifting electronic rhythms and textures, with an occasional cameo by electric guitar or bass. This is what New Order would have sounded like with successful anti-depressant therapy. **For the drinkers>>> Drinks: $2 Well, $3 Draft and $4 Call....save your unemployment checks. ++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++ MUSIC:: ++New tracks posted from Zygote. ++(BufferFuct track from microsound list project) ++http://www.microsound.org/bufferfuct/ (#9) >releases ++ "Reversion Sequence 1" (utr002) released ++New Review from Noiseloop: http://www.noiseloop.com/reviews.php?op=showcontent&id=44 ++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++ NONLINEAR TOURING:: Zygote will be playing some dates on the west coast: Arcata: 07/27/02 :: the Arcata Theater, 1036 G St. Arcata :: (with Chris Willits, Chris DeGiere and Kenric McDowell) Los Angeles: 08/07/02 :: The Knitting Factory @ Twine ::(with Chris Willits and Kenric McDowell) August Portland: ::Date TBA Seattle: ::Date/Location TBA San Diego: ::Date/Location TBA **booking contact: xxxxxxxx@xxxxx.xxx ++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++ _________________________________________________________________ Send and receive Hotmail on your mobile device: http://mobile.msn.com --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: xxx-xxxxxxxxxxx@xxxxxxxxx.xxx For additional commands, e-mail: xxx-xxxx@xxxxxxxxx.xxx
