This Monday SIL2K at I-Spy presents a duo of DJs, a trio or Cellos
and a trio of horn players on tour from Europe. Opening the show is
the premiere of a new cello trio featuring Brent Arnold (THICKNESS,
Project W) , Lori Goldston (Black Cat Orchestra, Nirvana!) and Serena
Tideman (THICKNESS, Eyvind Kang). In the headlining slot at 10:30 is
the dueling DJ's Manalive & Misskick. And on tour from Europe is the
very special Holz Für Europa featuring Woflgang Fuchs (Germany), Hans
Koch (Switzerland) and Peter van Bergen (Holland).

Manalive, a one-man electronic band with an appetite for spontaneous
composition, flourishes with melodic improvisation and rhythmic
interaction. Michael Stegner is the architect of this musical
construct involving the use of electronic sequencers, samplers, and
keyboards - achieving a totally interchangeable mix of sounds, beats,
and melodies. Manalive is a sound collage that represents the
everyday spontaneous actions that determine individuality. This music
calls on a vocabulary of sounds gathered over the course of time and
communicates with an ingenuous new language. Misskick has been seen
spinning at Pitch Control at Aro.Space, Dialect at the OK Hotel and
Glitch at Aristocrats. Her sets can be also be heard on Aural
Fixations on Groovetech, in cahoots with Elemental, or tag teaming
with Miss Kito or as in this case Manalive.
Holz Für Europa - Woflgang Fuchs (Germany), Hans Koch (Switzerland)
and Peter van Bergen (Holland) all met at a concert of the Cecil
Taylor European Orchestra having each arrived at free music through
different routes; Koch, a classically trained clarinetist came to
jazz through Coltrane, Coleman, Braxton and Butch Morris, van Bergen,
a academically trained saxophonist and Fuchs from Cecil Taylor and
his own King Ubu Orchestra. Seven wind instruments, from contrabass
and bassclarinet to b-flat and a-flat clarinets, from tenor to
soprano through sopranino, between silence and explosive intensity,
between tender beauty and uninhibited expressionism, between
ingeniously written passages and free searching movements within the
still relatively unexplored areas of melody, discordant sounds and
noise, subtle, at times brittle sound scapes in all stages of unrest,
fragility and emphasis. Certainly the three musicians in Holz Für
Europa don't play music of rebellion or of open riot, times are
different now. The aesthetic of resistance has been taken over by
the aesthetics of priority of all musical means and possibilities, in
the unfolding as well as in the reduction. Music truly of the moment.
Brent Arnold, Lori Goldston, Serena Tideman play their first show
together as a cello trio here at SIL2K. Brent Arnold (THICKNESS,
Project W) on cello, Lori Goldston (Black Cat Orchestra, Nirvana!)
cello, Serena Tideman (Project Nada, THICKNESS, Eyvind Kang) cello.
