Exploring the interplay between punk sinewave aggression, high-speed video sequences and stroboscopic lighting
Work that focuses in on the static hiss and background noise of recording and pushes it to the fore.
Patented 60 cycle hums, static pops, and terse electron pinpricks mutated into perfect, post-techno grooves and synaesthesic video
Tiny fragments of sound recombined and woven into spare and precise, violent yet beautiful pieces
Deliberately blurred drones, absent of definite structure or rhythm, framed in silence and devoid of any distraction from the pure matter of sound.
Formed as a means to realise William Bennett’s goal of “a sound that could bludgeon an audience into submission”
The program of composed music including Feldman’s Instruments III, Ligeti’s piece for 100 Metronomes Poeme Sympathetique, and Rebonds B by Iannis Xenakis.
CCI Sound system: a performance in which new material will be mixed and phased between two huge PA’s, one a precise Meyer system, the other a huge wall of Marshall amps
Merzbow takes the junk of sound and transforms it into blistering noise assaults with an incredible spectrum and impact.
