Big Blood(US)
Blending psychedelic folk, experimental rock, and an array of other influences, Big Blood’s music is both diverse and deeply personal. Known for their DIY ethos, they have self-released most of their recordings themselves, often with handmade packaging, while also collaborating with independent labels like Ba Da Bing Records and Feeding Tube.
Over the years, the band has built a dedicated international cult following and become a mainstay in New England’s underground music scene.
evee(DK)
evee is an electronic musician who engages in the naive and childish in computer music, soft vocals, smooth synths and jumping, dancing sounds from her back pocket and beyond. Wo!
EVOL(ES/UK)
What if you could freeze hardcore techno? This is a special site-specific show that delves into the concept of time dilation, stretching, and slowness, as applied to the slimy sonic language of what Roc Jiménez de Cisneros and Stephen Sharp call acid mereotopology.
Through the use of weirdly frozen bass lines and synthetic stabs, the piece captures the listener in a temporal drift, evoking a sense of floating through an expansive void where time itself seems to stretch and bend. A psychedelic carousel of emerging microstructures and catatonic euphoria.
Faramarz Amirian(IR)
Faramarz Amirian, born in 1970 in Sarpol Zahab, Kermanshah Province, developed an early interest in playing the tanbur, encouraged by his family. In 1989, he began his musical career with the Kermanshah Sound and Culture Center and later formed the Dalaho band with his brother. He has won several awards for his tanbur playing and composed works such as “Cheshme Saravan.” He has contributed to spreading the art of tanbur through teaching and performances.
Richard Youngs(UK)
Richard Youngs is a musician based in Glasgow, Scotland with a career spanning more than 35 years, his work is an ongoing experiment in sound and song form, straddling the traditional and avant-garde, encompassing every genre and no genre.
Primarily recognised as a solo artist and writer of extended song, he is also an active collaborator working across experimental music, improvisation, folk, jungle, wrong ambient and disco.
Seth Cluett presents Laurie Spiegel(US)
In two separate concerts composer Seth Cluett will present pieces from Spiegel’s two seminal releases and beyond.
Laurie Spiegel is one of those rare artists where a programmer’s technical savvy and a composer’s deep melodic intuition seamlessly merge. Though she is recognized as one of America's pioneering and most advanced computer composers, Spiegel's approach is deeply rooted in Bach as well as traditional and folk music. For Spiegel - also a lutenist and banjo player - the computer represents a new kind of folk instrument, which can supplement and extend human abilities.
Spiegel's music has - literally - traveled to the edge of our solar system, when her realization of Johannes Kepler's Harmonices Mundi, was chosen for the Sounds of Earth record aboard the Voyager spacecraft in 1977. Also a computer programmer, software designer and visual artist, she created the music composition software Music Mouse in 1986 as a way for even nonmusicians to create music in an intuitive way.
Seth Cluett is an artist and composer whose work ranges from photography and drawing to video, sound installation, concert music, and critical writing. His work has been presented internationally at venues such as The Whitney Museum, MoMA/PS1, Moving Image Art Fair, CONTEXT Art Miami, GRM, and STEIM.
