Stable, Substrata, Qube Konstrukt and Slap Records present
FIRST SIGNAL - Phoenecia (Schematic Records, USA) live, Saturday
December 18th at The Corner Hotel with supports Qua and Cambion
live,DJs Quockenzocker and Dave Pham.
Phoenecia are Joshua Kay and Romulo Del Castillo. They began in
1995 as an electro group known as Soul Oddity, changing their name
to
Phoenecia when they began making deeper more experimental sounds.
Joshua and Romulo also run breakthrough experimental label
Schematic(housing the output of Phoenecia, Richard Devine, Otto Von
Schirac
and more) and as PhoeneciA make crazy beat laden experimental
analogue
glitch which encompasses sounds and influences from dub, hip hop
and
electro for Schematic,Warp and more. Touring throughout the last 2
years, their jaw dropping 2 man live show has received countless
accolades throughout Europe and the US, including a brain-frying
much-mentioned set at Sonar Festival 2003, and are now set to tear
up Australia. Expect complex percussive figures and fractured
rhythms,robotic beatbox fragments, squirting, jittering basslines,
and improvised mayhem as they rip their recorded work into
shreds... an
unmissable chance to see 100% live experimental music as it should
be but rarely is... raw, innovative, engaging and unpredictably
brilliant.
In support, Melbourne's own Qua (Cornel Wilczek) will showcase his
recent album on Surgery Records, Painting Monsters on Clouds.
Foregetabout folktronica, kiddietronica, or even pigeonholetronica
as Qua is operating in his own league. This is Quatronica. In fact
aspects of it don't even sound all that electronic, drawing upon
elements of world music, folk, and even rock in this incredible
fusion. www.surgeryrecords.com.
Cambion (Graylands, Uncomfort Records) is making waves both in
Australia and internationally for intricate, emotional, intelligent
but definitely not serious experimental sounds - from frenetic
glitchcore to gentler sweet laptopscapes. He will be playing a 3 -
project mashup with sounds from his upcoming releases as Nightmare
Man(Uncomfort Records), Aaron Quick (Graylands) and Cambion. If
you
haven't heard Cambion yet prepare to have a new favourite artist to
follow around his many projects... www.graylands.com
Both are at the forefront of Melbourne's experimental underground
and put on an essential live show to boot...
DJs Quockenzocker (Synaesthesia records) and Dave Pham (Forklift)
will roll with the punches and push all the right buttons...
Signal is a new touring brand for live experimental music, from the
strangest to the most fucked up music you will hear, showcasing
international and local artists that redefine the meaning of a
"live show" and prove that analogue is evil and laptops can kill...
this
is the first Signal show and the start of the Signal/Schematic
records
touring schedule... stay tuned for more Signal events in 2005.
