Edinburgh. Nigh-inaudible improv jams with disabled instruments from the makers of Giant Tank and Pizza Boy Delivery.
Brother and sister stumble over the early morning horizon in a spectral haze of emotionally devastating lunar vocals and oblique, lithium-soaked folk.
A short chat about what we (Arika) might be trying to do with our program for the Biennial.
Haino exceeds expectation with a 4 hour solo performance on a collection of more than forty instruments from all over the world.
The club as a community and a site for performed politics: deep/ queer house, vogue femme, lipsync and ballroom.
Daniel Carter & Sabir Mateen’s trio with percussionist Andrew Barker; incessantly driving forward through sweat-drenched bursts of pure ecstatic freedom.
Jarringly beautiful and often maniacal expression of hallucinatory and very personal visions.
A party and fundraiser to support Sex Workers’ struggles and LGBT Unity with music and performances from the sex workers’ community and allies, plus DJ’s and dancing.
The worlds leading radio art station brings you: a performance, a radio show, an installation, an endurance test.
A dense materialist experience at the limits of contemporary computer music, drawing on Korean Shamanism and Communism; striving to create a strange new vibration to the world that seems to contain the seed of everything.
A guitar solo of frugal wringing, of notes in the dark, an attitude of making everything count.
Equal parts spectacle, installation and performance, his set for us is a specially developed work, ‘turning’, which features an orchestra of multiple turntables, 4 projections and a collection of old, and, quite probably, misfiring analogue kit.
