Powerhaus, in association with the Linen Hall Library Belfast, is proud to announce the following event: Loop-pool meets Powerhaus, 8pm, Linenhall library, Belfast N Ireland For one night only, Rick Walker's loop pool and Powerhaus' Paul Marshall will be sharing the stage for an evening of live percussive looping. This N Ireland's first ever live looping concert and is part of Rick's 2003 European tour Rick's instrumentation is eclectic with everything from dayglo frisbee kickdrums and junk to 'adult toys' being used as well as 'proper' percussion and other instruments. Paul's set will be similar in instrumentation but with an improvised performance based around percussion and 'junk'. Two individual sets and one combined set are planned. The show is to be digitally recorded on audio and video. What is looping? Well... Sounds are created by the player which, with the real time use of technological gizmos and gadgets, are then repeated in a loop fashion to provide a basis for further playing and loopage. Sounds may be added to and removed from the ongoing loop, played at half/double speed, even backwards, they can be sliced, diced, pitched, glitched, and generally tinkered with to produce an infinite number of sonic effects. We have issued a challenge to audience members to bring an object which we are unable to use musically. We will not see these objects until we are about to commence the piece in which we use them. We dare you! This is a unique event, tickets are available NOW from the box office (028) 90321707 priced at £7/£5. More information is available from http://www.powerhaus.net/looppool.
