LIVE PERFORMANCES:
THE LOVEMAKERS
The Lovemakers offer up electropop dance songs punctuated with boy-girl
vocals, electric violin, vibrator solos, and shoegazing Robert Smith guitar
lines. Although the sweat-drenched stage antics might fool you, a typical
conversation with TLM will generally bring you into the depths of
synthesizer geekdom, classical music muses, or most frequently, smack in the
middle of J.R.R. Tolkien's middle earth! A preoccupation with the fantastic
colours TLM's approach to music making, taking inspiration from many fronts:
80s pop legends The Human League, Bjork, Le Tigre, and Oakland's own
burgeoning synth-happy music scene. According to Lord Grunge (of Pittsburg
Hip Hop duo Grand Buffet), the Lovemakers sound "like a pink Ferrari driving
through a mountain of cocaine."
MATT DAVIGNON
Matt Davignon of Oakland, California has been performing and recording his
own brand of experimental music for the last 9 years. Primarily self taught,
he creates most of his music (both live and recorded) through improvisation,
often imitating everyday sound phenomena or focusing on often-overlooked
aural characteristics. Matt does not own or seek expensive equipment. He
prefers to make do with what is already within reach. Instruments he uses
include turntable, tape, sampling/looping devices, cd, found objects, field
recordings, prepared acoustic guitar, keyboard, slide whistles and vocal
sounds.
TRI-CORNERED TENT SHOW
Almost everyday in the news there are stories about how a group of
scientists after so many decades of painstaking research and work create a
new drug or make new discoveries, but how many times does one read about a
group of musicians that have done the same thing? A trio of experimental and
improvisational musicians called the Tri-Cornered Tent Show has done just
that. It has taken them the last part of the last century (25 years to be
exact) of dedicated practice, research, and patience that brings them to
announce the release of "Maze Above the Abyss", "Tri-Cornered Tent Show",
and "Beneath the Mountains of Madness" all encased in 3 compact discs. The
musical journey began with initial tracks being recorded using the ancient
anti-deluvian technology of electronics from the 70's. Though methodical
deciphering of the Lovcraft short story "The music of Eric Zann", other
related stories expanded upon Lovecraft's Greater Cthulu Mythos they began
recording free improvisation and orchestrated sound sculpture over those 25
years to create the projects now available on the new bay area label
Edgetone Records. Now, they come out from their exile held up in a
well-insulated dank little studio in the depths of Richmond California. By
the shear force of will and their dedication to the world of improvisation,
they have a unique set of music to merit them worthy of attention. In a
world of pop can music they could teach a class in patience and creation.
