Pretty generous of him, me thinks. Cuz hey.. free music is the best kind, right?
Thanx for the free-ness and continued ingenuity Dan.
“Dan Deacon is a furry ball of imagination and childlike wonder. In his world, convention is thrown out a 20th-story window and beaten with a bright red plastic hammer. Dan uses electronic gizmos, keyboards, and stuff he found in the trash to create amusing and confusing sounds, blended with absurd lyrics about undersea racing and feline entrepreneurs. He is also a classically trained composer.” -Taken from Mr. Deacon’s LastFM Bio

Big Thanx as well to all the artists who performed. Super solid performances this week. We also managed to capture some audio and video recordings of the event, which came out well also. Look for that stuff to leak out at some point too.

Efterklang’s - Illuminant (Video by: Toby Stretch)
Avant GARism #4
Saturday, February 9th, 2008
Performances by:
alGARhythm - (Polyvibe)
alGARhythm makes Maximalist music as a result of existing in an corrupt, over-saturated society. AbstraKtion, Angst, & Absurdity share space with utter Beauty & unfettered Intangiblilty.
Dance beats dance with Sound Collage.
The Peripheral meets the Forefront.
Popularity jumps rope with Obscurity.
Nothing is Safe, and Everything is Sacred.
On Accident, By Purpose. Gar Lives..
A_Scissors - (Polyvibe)
A_Scissors uses Drum Machine Art as a conduit for transformation and communication.
Cohesiveness of aesthetic. Like a cheetah. A mirage. Like a soft child.
Auditory bliss makes friends with the ratatat-tat-tick-tock-boom-click. Metaphoria electro-caffinates and inflates the imagination of cohabitation. Orchestrated, Analog “MueZeek” made for people’s of all cloth, and made with a vulnerability & musical touch one might describe as: “delicacy”.
Existing somewhere near the music of a Boards of Canada, or a Nathan Fake but done with a definitive “punch” and style that is all his own.
Mr. Antonym - (Nophi)
Mr. Antonym makes eclectic, brooding IDM.
Here’s how he described his upcoming set for the 9th: “Expect sample-heavy, distorted pieces that sound like demons belching brimstone and depressing dirges that lull the mind into a anesthetized haze so the inevitable psychic implants will be virtually painless. Goth kids will love it.”
Drone Operator - (Consumer Electronics, Polyvibe)
Drone Operator fuses sinister organic undertones, darkened Electro, IDM, Booty Breaks, & Glitch . Conducting, shaping, and molding crooked thinking into a simmering pot of ominous storm cloudISM. The Drone works and the Operator directs, rushing out potent pulses of tactical psycometry.. Audi-O with a depth and exactness that verbiage cannot manifest.
