Output:Noise Show on July 24 in Syracuse

July 9, 2011 — Mike

From output:noise:

For our 2nd, official, event in Syracuse we are bringing in two very multi-dimensional, boundary forging artists; Work/Death, hailing from Providence, RI and Baltimore resident Elijah Forest (also known as Lolly Gesserit and formerly known as Terrors.) Of his sound, the man behind Work/Death enunciates his intention to “connect the dots along the path of music concrete, electro-acoustic improv, harsh noise and the pop song” through a sonic palette ranging from “crumbling distortion and dense synth textures to delicate melodies and empty field recordings.”

Traveling with Work/Death on a tour that began last month at the Ende Tymes Festival in NYC is Lolly Gesserit, the most current endeavour from the prolific Elijah Forest. Here, Forest implements tape collage, industrial/dub overtones and occasional crooning to invoke a “warm grim meditative blur.”

Output:Noise contributors Craig Marlowe (Rochester) and Jeremy Dziedzic (Syracuse) open the evening as The Table.

Work/Death, Lolly Gesserit and The Table will perform at The Badlands (1007 E. Fayette St.) in Syracuse, NY on Sunday, July 24th.

27th Victoriaville Musique Actuelle Festival (2011) Review

July 9, 2011 — Mike

From Downtown Music Gallery:

The opening set was a delightful trio called Tokyo Taiga which featured Makigami Koichi on vocals, theremin, jaw’s harp & pocket trumpet, Bolot Bayryshev (from Mongolia) on voice & topshur (2-string plucked guitar-like instrument) and Sato Masaharu on percussion & flutes. The set started with the ever-charming Makigami singing slowly and making that mischievous face that we all love. Both Makigami and Bolot both sang lead in different combinations, with Bolot most often singing in that exotic Tuvan throat-singing voice.
