01.29.08 > THE PiNG presents Syzygia, Sleep Research Facility & Ortiz



. . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . .

. THiS TUESDAY. THE PiNG presents NEW ARTiSTS FOR A NEW YEAR 
Featuring Syzygia . Sleep Research Facility . Ortiz
@ the UNDERGROUND downstairs @ the DRAKE HOTEL
1150 Queen St. W @ Beaconsfield . W of Ossington . E of Dufferin
Tuesday January 29th . 9PM . PWYC (5$ suggested)

Please note the later start time of 9PM. 

. SYZYGIA . The project of Harrison Dahme, dealing with the
ambient and atmospheric.

. SLEEP RESEARCH FACILITY . Sleep Research Facility explores
notions of awareness and perception in the sub/unconcious listener.
Focusing primarily on sound bereft of rhythm based energies, SRF's
goal is to provide listening environments wherein the music simply
adds texture to the silence. A kind of "play me quiet" sound suitable
for listening to actively or passively depending on circumstances,
creating an aural experience which guides the mind through gentle
misdirection rather than forcing its attention, allowing listeners to
drift in their own diversified thoughts.

. ORTIZ . Laurier Brown finds the crinkly, skittering nuggets in
the white noise. His first Ortiz release The Crinkle and its Faces
was an exploration of glitchy layered noise-scapes, almost
undetectable beats mingled with hiss and static. Dark dreams
for long winter nights put to tape, digitized, randomized, spliced,
split up, spit out. His second release, Salvage, further digs into
the sonic subconscious, carving subterranean passages under
ancient roots planted in the psycho-spiritual mulch. Hooves
draws from the ghosts left behind in the cracking pavement
where the groves once grew, remembering great herds, drifting
past gulls flying out to sea.

IMPORTANT PiNG NOTiCE

. . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . .

Please note that the January 29th 2008 show will be
the last regular AMBiENT PiNG TUESDAY for a while
as The Drake Hotel will no longer be opening its
Underground venue on Sunday and Tuesday nights.

Sadly this means that effective February 2008, we will
be putting the regular monthly PiNG club shows on
hiatus as we regroup and plot future endeavours.

In the meantime, wish us luck as we look for new spaces.
If you have any suggestions about places that might be
suitable for the PiNG then please feel free to email us
venue names and/or addresses care of
bookings@theambientping.com
We'll check them out and be back with more
LiVE AMBiENT PiNG EVENTS soon.
