Children Of Samhain

Huge thanks to Mat @no-mates-ensemble for letting me remix his track https://soundcloud.com/no-mates-ensemble/tuscany-experiments-whistling-with-the-dogs-of-mount-amiata
The artwork is also his... All of the sounds except for drums and bass are original and in a few cases manipulated... I dig how Mat pushes the envelope with his journeys into sound

I wanted to see whether GRM Tools Atelier could do something a little more rhythmic ... It can! 😁 See the YouTube video of the patch (and an upcoming how it works) on the halF unusuaL YouTube channel: https://youtu.be/aY6TNXLZYec

PRESS RELEASE:

January 23rd-February 15th, 2004

Opening January 23rd from 7PM-Midnight

The show includes John Parker, Nina Sobell, Caspar Stracke, LoVid, Michaeal Jacobson with performances by Bubblyfish, Bit Shifter, North Guinea Hills , G-Stompz + Nobody, Tom Ritchford, and jenghizkhan.

"a sound show" includes work from a variety of artists using sound as the basis or influence for their work. The work included in the show uses toys, tools, and consumer electronics that are either customized or used in a non-traditional manner.

Nina Sobell uses a hammer to create a percussive rhythm on pieces of glass in a video performance excerpt from 1973. Caspar Stacke (Videokasbah) uses a customized or hacked Laserdisc to scratch images and movie soundtracks as a DJ scratches records. Bubblyfish (Haeyoung Kim) and Bit Shifter (Joshua Davis) create music by sequencing 8-bit sounds from a hand held video games (Nintendo Game Boy). John Parker uses the technology of miniature portable radios tuned to different stations and the static between radio transmissions to create a musical composition. Michael Jacobson uses paint marker on canvas and is influenced by street art (graffiti), his pieces contain subliminal and "free thought" imagery within the canvas. G-Stompz and Nobody use customized music gear and toys that are altered in a process called circuit bending (an alteration of the usual function of the instrument or toy). Aaron Halley (North Guinea Hills) uses customized music gear to create cacophonous soundscapes. Tom Ritchford loops live and electronic sounds featuring the electronic wind instrument and effects to produce sounds ranging from angular minimalist jams to huge cascades of notes. John Parker (jenghizkhan) will do live synthesis with a circuit-bent toy Casio SK-1 keyboard (modified by Arius Blaze) and a Monomachine. LoVid (Tali Hinkis and Kyle Lapidus) scrambles ordinary TV output into hyperkinetic audiovisual abstraction using homemade electronic devices, repurposed analog toys, and low-res video loops.

John Parker (jenghizkhan) is a sound artist living and working in Brooklyn. He was in a recent sound show at Caren Golden Fine Art in Chelsea called Pop Rocks as well as shows at Perogi, Gale Gates, and Andrew Kreps Gallery. He has also done events with the CMJ Music Festival with DJ Spooky and with Amoeba Technologies. He is a regular at Share and is part of two side projects, Man From Planet Risk and !M.O.O.B. www.eyekhan.com
