MITCHELL AKIYAMA
November 25th, 11 PM
[Intr_version - Alien8/Substractif - Raster-Noton]
http://www.intr-version.com
Mitchell Akiyama is a Toronto-born and Montreal-based art student who
wanders around with a minidisc recorder and mic and captures the sound
of his environment; street corners, bathroom ventilation systems,
friends playing "real" instruments. He takes these aural ecosystems,
dumps them into his computer and uncovers the tones, rhythms, melodies
and, ultimately, the songs that are lying dormant in them. Most call
this "electronic music". He self-released a CD-R called "Inter_Verse" in
November, 1999, and his latest album "Hope that lines don't cross" was
released in May on Substractif. He has also started work on a new album
which will be released on Germany's Raster-Noton and material for
several other releases.
POLMO POLPO
November 25th, 10 PM
[Audi Sensa]
http://www.mp3.com/polmopolpo
Polmo Polpo is an evolving musical hernia endured by it's producer,
Sandro Perri, while live relief is provided by the handsome Nick Zubeck
on lap steel guitar. Cellos and guitars do solemnly swear alongside the
drums, only to be devoured later by swarms of insects and white noise.
Come and hear music which some Germans like to call "absoluter
flaechenkiller".
THE BLAMESHIFTER
November 25th, 9 PM
http://www.famefame.com
The Blameshifter began as a collaboration between Jubal Brown and Tasman
Richardson called Oh Huge Vault Of Vaseline (OHVOV), a semi-
improvisational, experimental noise project reminiscent of artists like
Throbbing Gristle. Tasman Richardson later left OHVOV to create Polygon
Noose, an experimental techno project with Justin Waddel. The emphasis
on "sculpted" sound waves as samples as opposed to found real world
noises led to the development of The Blameshifter, a solo project by
Tasman Richardson in which minimal compositions of continually changing
tempo and style are generated from one performance to another to avoid
predictability and disrupt audience expectation.
