Edinburgh. Sinewave manipulating Giant Tank-ette goes head-to-head with Decaer Pinga’s first lady of noise.
A saxophone. Handheld fans. Shrill squeaks. Splutters, gargling. An incredible diversity of sounds, intensely focused by an inventive musician.

Somewhere between performance, stripped down theatre and an intense kind of public learning or maybe even a public hearing.
A dense, hard, immersive, chaotic spatial performance in sound: a momentary gap in consciousness, free of order or decision.
The club as a community and a site for performed politics: deep/ queer house, vogue femme, lipsync and ballroom.
