Fibonacci Drone Organ / B°TONG / S.J.E.L.

GummiLyd er en konsertserie der eksperimentell musikk og smalere genre, fremføringer og performance kan oppleves live. Det være seg elektronika, drone-musikk, ambient, dark industry, synth og sequencer-oppbygget lyddesign, spoken word, dans, improvisert støymusikk basert på bearbeidede feltopptak på diy- og ukonvensjonelle instrumenter, freejazz eller harsh noise. Musikken kan oppleves å være i randsonen av det etablerte, kommer gjerne fra undergrunnsmiljøer og åpner for reiser i nye lydlandskaper.

Fibonacci Drone Organ (Sweden)
Fibonacci Drone Organ is an act that uses the Fibonacci Series as a durational indicator for the addition (and occasional subtraction) of notes on a toy keyboard – the notes to be played are determined by chance methods both in advance and at the time of performance. The notes added can interfere with each other sonically, or complement each other sonically, or occasionally both. The sound and its interaction with the room will affect what the listener hears, as will the listeners’ own psychoacoustic filtering due to ear-shape, presbycusis and other factors. This ensures that everybody has their own unique concert. Each listener can alter their own perception of the sound produced by slight and slow movements of their head from side to side, up and down and each of you may find your own “drone space” in the room, so it is worth exploring the space to find your favourite spot, should you so wish. Alternatively, sit back, relax and let the drone take you to where it takes you!

B°TONG
HOSTILE SOUNDSCAPES SINCE 2005
Chris Sigdell is an experimental electronic musician. He developed a soft spot for early industrial textures and pioneering ambient soundscapes while cutting his teeth in industrial collective NID (1995-2005). He builds an interesting body of work that moves in various directions at the same time. From dealings with ambient and isolationism on one hand and experimental music, ranging from the soft micro-sound end to the more engaging noise end, in a clever combination of ideas...

B°TONG - since 2005 - performs all over Europe, North America and Japan, and has appeared on festivals such as Audio Art Festival, Lab30, Norberg Festivalen, Temple Of Silence, Wroclaw Industrial Festival, and has played alongside Bohren und der Club of Gore, Esplendor Geometrico, Frontline Assembly, Jozef Van Wissem, Puce Mary, Ramleh, Robert Rich, Sigillum S, Thomas Köner, Zbigniew Karkowski and many more.

B°TONG releases on experimental labels like Oxidation (USA), Drone Records (D), Zoharum (PL), Force Majeure (F), and Reverse Alignment (S). Chris composed the music for the contemporary circus performance pieces „Vertikal“ and “Upside Inside” by Finn Jagd Andersen, and can be seen in the Swiss television series „Der Bestatter“ - in the episode „Spiel mit dem Feuer“ he is guitarist in a band playing one of his compositions.

B°TONG uses found gadgets and metal objects together with various effect-pedals to create his soundscapes.

The latest releases are: The Eradication Of The Individual CD (Oxidation, USA), and A Fleeting Moment Of Superabundance” LP (Force Majeure/Les Nouvelles Propagandes, F).

S.J.E.L. er:
Sissel
Johansen: video
Eirik
Lie: bassgitar, elektronikk

Eirik Lie har vært innom de fleste sjangre, og også jobbet mye med lyd til teater, film og installasjoner. Ved hjelp av loops og elektronikk improviserer han frem musikken lag for lag. Repetisjoner som kanskje ikke er repetisjoner? En bass som kanskje høres ut som noe helt annet? Uventede ting oppstår kanskje pga uforutsigbar elektronikk? Definitivt ikke dansemusikk, men likevel mye bevegelse.

Sissel Johansens videoer tar også for seg repetisjoner, som f.eks. i vannbevegelser. Lange tagninger med små variasjoner hele tiden, noe som smelter godt sammen med Eiriks ambiente lydlandskap.

Gratis inngang. 18-årsgrense + vergeordning.
