If life is assaulted by power, where do we find spaces for living? A conversation with Peter Pál Pelbart.
Miniscule free-noise hissy-fits and broken instrument scrape/ squeal jams from the fools what brought you Giant Tank.
Akio Suzuki and John Butcher performing in a remote sea cave near Durness.
Terry is one of the most entertaining and unpredictable musicians in the London free improvising music scene. Rhodri Davies extends his instrument under a battery of techniques creating sound colours and textures quite alien to the harp.
Ecstatic, scalding and ludicrously heavy, nobody matches Incapacitants for live noise energy. One of the most exhilarating live acts in underground music.
The worlds leading radio art station brings you: a performance, a radio show, an installation, an endurance test.
Jumping off from Sun Ra’s thoughts on evil, and the Alien films, this performance will explore how the sociality Sondra wants to visualise and participate in has no interest in respectability.
A programme of discontinuity between narration, text and image. Including Manual Saiz’s employment of John Malkovich’s Spanish dubbing double and Peter Rose’s absurdly hilarious concrete poetry subtitling chaos.
Sachiko’s very simple, pure sine tones and structures. Otomo on double pianos. Filament’s music isn’t composed and it isn’t improvised: it’s a hybrid of the two.
A life force of ecstatic clarity capable of loquacious bursts of affirmation.
A chorister attempting to sing Vivaldi, with live accompaniment, while trampolining for 20 minutes.
A series of three short performed situations and statements to be examined or judged from the most interesting young musician in Glasgow (we think).
