NEGATIVWOBBLYLAND
NegativWobblyland is a new project with members of legendary audio collage group Negativland teaming up with San Francisco electronic musician Wobbly.
NegativWobblyland eschews the cut-and-paste formats of their previous collaborations to celebrate the unpredictable magic of The Booper. Originally invented by Negativland's The Weatherman around 1975 (well before the term "circuit bending" entered the lexicon), Boopers are 100% analog feedback instruments, created entirely from salvaged radio and amplifier parts, which recycle back on themselves to generate a living music from feedback and dirt. In this show, "Booper Symphony #4", NegativWobblyland lets the Boopers do all the talking, with each member controlling and sampling an arsenal of the devices in a wordless and surprisingly melodic wall of electronic tonalities, rhythms and drones.
EVOL
Since the late nineties, this Barcelona-based group has been producing what they call "computer music for hooligans", inspired by geometry, noise, cosmology and rave culture. A vortex of monolithic basslines, air horn dissonance and razor-sharp synthesis, their music displays a radical and playful approach to algorithmic composition. Their works have been published by Entr'acte, Mego, Presto!?, Diskono, Scarcelight, fals.ch and their very own ALKU.
