Bruno’s liberated improvisational approach stretches beyond the lyrical, tough as nails rhythmic bursts and expressive, swinging attack of his drumming.

A performed film lecture exploring how the ‘Rumberas’ of Caribbean cinema of the 40’s and 50’s subverted demeaning images of themselves through dance, sound and a sociality that insisted on blackness as being a cultural performance, not simply due to skin colour.
A sound diffusion piece by Glasgow University’s Musica Electronica, and a further selection of electroacoustic performances.
An LSD trip gone right via dense explorations of post-Fahey steel and low level drone.
