Hello list, The one gig spam: Tuesday, May 7 Lulu's Beehive 13203 Ventura Blvd. Studio City 8:00 PM This is a FREE show. I'll be playing solo, continuing my exploration of some new LoopIV features that are steering some of my previous EDP techniques in a more overtly rhythmic, post-hip-hop direction. And I may try to cop some of the EDP ideas I tried to steal from Mr. Grob up in Oakland (not that I could possibly pull it off anywhere near as fluidly as he does it, mind you.) The half gig spam: Thursday, May 2 (i.e. TONIGHT) California Institute of the Arts 24700 McBean Parkway, Valencia 11:30 PM (approximately) with various events happening all evening This is also a free show. A bit more info regarding the event I first spammed you about last week: This will be the end of the year exhibition for the Integrated Media program at CalArts, which focuses on various mixed-media, interdisciplinary digital endeavors. Events are scheduled to happen all day; there's apparently a reception at 6:00, and my gig with Eric Oberthaler on Ableton Live and EDP will supposedly commence around 11:30 PM. (Yowza). Eric has been delving very heavily into the Live software, and is building up a sort of quasi-DJ approach with it, combining various snatches of found sounds and recordings using the program's real-time timestretching and editing functions. Our set will morph in and out of our duo EDP material and Eric's more purely Laptopism-based techique (which he'll also be displaying between various performances throughout the evening), all of which will be sync'd up to a common rhythmic pulse. Well then. --Andre LaFosse http://www.altruistmusic.com
