ISSUE Project Room
22 Boerum Place, Brooklyn

Saturday, May 12th, ISSUE presents composer Vanessa Rossetto and sound artist C. Lavender each presenting new compositions. Respectively, these new works disclose parallel explorations into how trauma and memory collude with audition as a co-composional affective material. Rossetto presents work exploring the localization of transgenerational trauma taking residence in the individual body, while Lavender uses rapidly moving tones produced by specialized software that work with the brain's "frequency following" response as a form of rehabilitation.

Returning to ISSUE after previous performances at ISSUE’s KYE showcase in 2014 and Amplify series with Erstwhile Records in 2015, Vanessa Rossetto premieres “The Dirt,” a new work accompanied by a short film by frequent collaborator Matthew Revert. In a time when many fear that we are collectively hurtling toward a possible violent conflict fomented by jingoistic forces within our own national body, "The Dirt" presents an account of a similar situation long ago but remarkably fresh in the minds of people still living, where the dangers were comparable to those today, but the threat was external rather than internal. An exploration of transgenerational trauma, tenacity, survivorship and memory, the piece uses recordings of the composer's mother, who survived the London Blitz as a child, to interrogate the lingering effects of such upheaval, or any severe upheaval, upon even those who make it through and how this trauma can take up residence in the individual body as anxiety and depression.

For her ISSUE debut as a solo artist, C. Lavender presents “Transmutation Helix,” a performance piece engaging the audience to explore sound at deeply physical and emotional levels as a way to mend their relationship to stress and physical pain. The piece features Lavender employing specialized software to create tones which trigger a “frequency following” response in the brain, subtly modifying brainwave patterns between alert and meditative states. Within this dynamic sonic condition, the audience is given projected cues to explore the sounds they are hearing through gentle movement and breathing guidance.

Vanessa Rossetto is an American composer and painter based in New York City. She uses primarily field recordings, chamber instrumentation, electronics and a wide array of objects to create structures that expose the web of narrative threads underlying the everyday sound world around us. Rossetto has released material via Erstwhile, Kye, Unfathomless, Another Timbre, No Rent and other labels including her own Music Appreciation, and has been featured in publications such as The Wire, Signal to Noise and No Depression.

C. Lavender is a Hudson Valley, New York based sound artist, educator, and healer whose work spans through live performance, recording, installations and workshops. She seeks to create an immersive aural landscape for the listener, an experience which is intensely physical, emotional and ultimately cathartic as noted in a performance review from the Village Voice; "downright iconic, charged with meaning and transgression." C. Lavender has hosted sound-based workshops at The Rubin Museum, MoMA PS1, The Brooklyn Botanic Garden and RPI University. In 2016 she taught a ten-week class for children about the scientific and artistic aspects of sound. C. Lavender's 2017 full length album, “Vanishing Light,” was recorded in a semi-abandoned school turned county mental health center in Hudson, NY.

Ezekiel B. Weiner, AKA Eazykill, is a special electronic musician, born in 1992. Hailing from Culver City, in Los Angeles California, he discovered his affinity for the piano at 5 years old. Though he spent the next ten years of his life composing, he wouldn't release his first album until he was about the age of 15. It was a year later that he found inspiration from the works of Aphex Twin, Bob Dylan and The Tuss.

The album, Scherzo, was fuelled by his own genre idea of "HATEpop" (or, Horrifyingly Ambient Terribly Electronic pop). Idiosyncrasies like this would continue to be a recurrence in Ezekiel's music, monikers, and even his life - in his high school, he won their Larry Jimmerson Award for being a "Unique and Special" individual; from 2011 to 2012 he began releasing under the aliases Chaos Gnome and Zer0x.

In 2013 he released iZoph-0 on the Kaleidoscopic net-label, alongside artists such as Soundscape Oblivion and Beren One. After releasing several albums with them under his original Eazykill persona, he switched over to the label Xephem Records. He has been steadily releasing with Color Squad Records in addition, accumulating an exceptional amount of releases. Some claim he has the most tracks posted on SoundCloud at over 15,000, though it may very well be more with his elusive names - Hydrogone?, Ghosts and Aliens, 0/0, the list goes on...

He is currently residing in the middle of Pennsylvania.

James K - NTS MIX August 2019

‘Explorations in non-Western communal healing practices: a Sound & Scent collage’

Featured SCENT MIX:
Rose and Vanilla. Rose is good for the soul and heart spaces, for harmony, peace, love and tranquility. Vanilla is good for revitalizing your energy towards emotional growth as well as pleasure and helps to create an uplifting space and improve concentration. They connect to the heart, throat, sacral and crown chakras. 

-As part of my year-long artist residency at ISSUE Project Room, I have been exploring what a communal (Nigerian) diasporic healing practice looks like, sounds like, smells like and feels like. I will be sharing a sound and scent collage of my inspirations and musings in regards to my exploration in performance art rituals and the five elements of nature.

Wish You Were Here

EMPTY EDITIONS presents Mein Corona, a new single from legendary Hong Kong-based provocateur and pioneer of Cantonese industrial noise music XPER.XR. His first official release since 2006, Mein Corona is an ecstatic, darkly humorous, and ultimately hopeful document of life amidst the ongoing global Coronavirus pandemic. A singularly twisted interpretation of The Knack’s 1979 hit single “My Sharona,” Mein Corona embeds lyrics that allude to Chinese bat-eating and state conspiracy within a densely layered aural brigade of whip-cracks, sirens, shattering glass, and stock TIE Fighter screams. All, of course, set to the instantly recognizable and perversely infectious guitar riff of the original song. The single follows in a tradition of unexpected reimaginings and wayward covers—think Merzbow covering Christmas classic “Silent Night,” or Tori Amos’s version of Slayer’s “Raining Blood”—situations where the original is subverted entirely to great effect. Although Xper.Xr’s own discography is already studded with a number of bizarre renditions of existing tunes—from Prince’s “When 2 R in Love,” to interpretations of children’s nursery rhymes—Mein Corona might just be the strangest and most timely one of all. Developed spontaneously, and certainly not originally intended for proper release, this single was recorded in a series of feverish, ad hoc studio sessions between Xper.Xr and Alok Leung, and features saxophone provided remotely by the great Parisian improviser Jean-Luc Guionnet. 

Mein Corona unfolds as an absurd and truly unorthodox version of the 1970s radio hit. Xper.Xr carries the song’s original melody in karaoke fashion—a buzzed delivery that vies for presence amidst an overwhelming backing track and general anarchic confusion. Guionnet’s laser-sharp, siren-like saxophone playing functions as a kind of back-up vocal contributing to the atmosphere of sustained mania and malfunction. Within this carnivalesque universe of sound, Xper comes across as an unhinged bandleader directing a chorus of short-circuiting televisions—an aural metaphor for the affective space of our own quarantine-addled, compulsively media consuming, remote moralizing, and online shopping selves. Xper’s musical response to the pandemic is inflected by a perspective and sense of humor which is characteristically Hong Kong: a kind of self-lacerating relative of 無厘頭 (mo lei tau). An absurdist type of grassroots humour which delights in grotesque exaggeration, verbal nonsense, and illogical performances, 無厘頭 originated (at least in part) as a cathartic outlet for Hong Kongers widespread sense of existential futility as colonial subjects. This irreverent spirit is found throughout Xper’s work, especially as he has challenged conventions of deference and “good taste” within the realm of avant-garde music. With this tact on full display, Mein Corona is a brazen and confounding attempt to find a kind of optimism (even if that optimism is simply the ability to still create) amidst the confusion, adversity, and paranoia of the global pandemic: a much needed antidote to an atmosphere of official dread and grey seriousness which has suffused our everyday lives. 

The release was inspired by The Knack’s “My Sharona” written by Berton Averre & Doug Fieger (1979), produced by Empty Gallery and Xper. Xr., with Saxophone by Jean-Luc Guionnet and additional arrangement from Alok Leung. Midi-sequencing, recording, mixing, and mastering is by Alok Leung at Lona Records Studio, Hong Kong, April 2020. Artwork is by Xper.Xr and Michael Yu. Special Thanks to FeastOn. 

All proceeds of “Mein Corona” will be doubled through a matching grant from Empty Editions and donated to the Centre for Suicide Research and Prevention at the University of Hong Kong.
