La Pharmacie Esperanza – 5490 boul Saint-Laurent (@ St-Viateur) Montreal, QC LUCKY DRAGONS (Providence RI) THE WINDUP BIRD (Providence RI) w/ Magali Babin (Montreal, No Type) LOUDSPKR .... presents: LUCKY DRAGONS – Providence RI [ www.hawksandsparrows.org ] Glitch/folk -- sensor skin contact dancefreakout performance ...formed in 1999. The cut and paste digital derivative of musique concrete, melodic memory, splintery soft glitches, anxious dada, dirty indie, beautytronics. Lucky dragons is Luke Fischbeck, who edits it like a magazine to make sure it stays going. There are so many others to share the light, though: singing, drawing, dancing, touching, plucking and spinning or sewing with sound files or just listening really well. We are a diy sound branding and sound breaking collective. Records are densely knit collages of ecstatic language, folk melodies, and AM radio rave ups. Live shows are convulsive celebrations of sounds from hard drives and gentle skin contact. Our aesthetic is handmade. Contributing members currently live in Providence RI, Philadelphia PA, coastal Southern California and New York City. ...Lucky Dragons have performed in such festivals as Versionfest (Chicago), SINfest (NYC), Boston Cyberarts and RHfest (Boston, MA), Listening in the Sound Kitchen (Princeton University) etc… The last I saw them in NYC in December they gave a wire for the audience to hold and every time someone touched another person the sound would change. Basically the wire was connected to a patch they developed on the computer that would generate a sound according to the change in energy going through the wire. They would then improvise with the sound produced. Electronic, organic, interactive… MYSPACE: [ www.myspace.com ] MP3s: [ www.hawksandsparrows.org ] Picture: [ static.flickr.com ] WINDUP BIRD aka Joseph Grimm – Providence, RI [ www.thewindupbird.com ] Drawing inspiration from 60's composers like Terry Riley and Gyorgy Ligeti, Joseph Grimm is an emerging composer and performer whose works straddle the line between electroacoustic new music composition and underground experimental noise. Working under the name The Wind-Up Bird, Grimm's music often explores polyrhythm by juxtaposing many simultaneous tempos and periodicities. Oceanic, subliminal drones vibrate below clouds of warm digital pinpricks. Using delay networks, distortions, and other modulations, Grimm performs gradual but drastic transformations of input from live sound sources, emphasizing real-time creation, metamorphosis, and improvisation. His work is often realized with the aid of custom software programmed in the max|msp environment. He has used violin, pedal steel guitar, horns, marimba, and other instruments; but recent work uses only the singing voice as a sound source for hallucinogenic, surround-sound drone improvisations.
