This Wednesday the 2nd of May, we are playing at the launch of Tape Projects first ‘Zine/DVD at the Horse. The night kicks off at 8pm and we will be doing a one hour set from about 9:30pm.
Get there early as there will be lots of awesome stuff going on. Entry is 5 bucks and a gold coin gets you a copy of the launched product.
Thanks to the hordes of jammers, tweakers and drinkers who made it down to the Horse last night for Outpost #8. Great to see so many crew out for what was a killer line up.
David Chesworth performed a great feature set early on flashing his electro-acoustic styles and setting a great vibe going. Jammers rolled up early for the first session and put in hardcore - great to have some new faces on deck (spread the word!).
Half time entertainment was assured through 9 Jammers willingness to have a crack at the improv game which was; three groups of 3 players (2 audio/one video), one ten minute slot for each group, one theme per group.
The themes in order; suspension, dynamic interjection and resolution. Massive props for all of y’all that played along.
Robin Fox and Anthony Pateras… Killer.. All thriller, no filler. This was the most inspiring set in terms of shape, sonics and delivery. Right on lads, super heavyweight. Thanks so much for coming down.
Boz and JT are back in town for Outpost #9 so be sure to get on down.
Greetings all sentient lovers of a/v crossbreeding,
Outpost #8 is upon us this Wednesday the 25th of April at 8:30 p.m. at Horse Bazaar, 397 Little Lonsdale St.
Featured artists for this month are all booked and we are very excited.
David Chesworth (known for his early work with seminal post-punk experimental group Essendon Airport and the ground breaking 1978 recording 50 Synthesizer Greats) is coming on down to perform one of his new laptop/music concrete sets.
We also have Anthony Pateras and Robin Fox doing one of their heavy duty vocal and noise sets - trying out new material before they head to Europe.
mmm Outpost stylee internationalé… believe it!
What you won’t believe is that you get all this artcore shiznit for nix/nada/nothing.. seriously.
The jams will of course be on with one or two improvising games thrown in (as per Outpost #7) to spice things up a bit!
Full audio podcasts and some video excerpts from Outpost #7 are up on the site now so check them out.
Time once again to treat your eyes and ears to the magic that was Outpost #7. Right here, you can relive some of your favourite moments or alternatively, experience for the first time wedding eve style.
Big Up to all the artists who contributed - see you next time.
Thanks to everyone who braved the wet last Wednesday to come on down to the horse for OUTPOST. Big thanks go to Jon aka ‘Fly By Wire’ and Ross aka MULCHWERK for playing some fine feature sets. Thanks also to all the jammers and those guys that played along in our first little game. Upcoming Outposts will feature more game based jam sessions so make sure you come prepared to take on any challenge!
We got a full recording of last night, so podcasts and videos are on their way….
