Sonorous Circle

Presents: I.RYOKO (NZ) The Convoy, OK EG & Maria Moles/Loretta Wilde/Miranda Liebsher

$10 - Doors 8pm - Sat 14th October @ Magnet Spatial Studio Facebook Event

I.RYOKO (NZ) explores cathartic, ecstatic & transcendental sound. Intuitive compositions of synth, samplers and voice seek to envelop the listener with immense, evolving drones and kaleidoscopic layers of rhythm and melody. The result is often lush and meditative, at times intense or cataclysmic. The project is that of Thomas Lambert, a New Zealand-based artist with a background in composition, audio engineering, film and theatre sound. RIYL: Oneohtrix Point Never, Kaitlyn Aurelia Smith, Steve Reich, Stars of the Lid.   OK EG is the experimental music and visual art project of two Melbourne based producers, Lauren Squire and Matthew Wilson. Exploring ambient techno with an emphasis on hypnotic rhythms and organic textures, the pair have forged a unique musical bond. Wavelength was first performed for an epic 12 hours at White Night Melbourne 2017. Combining liquid analog projection with an immersive ambient soundscape, the work invites viewers into a deeply introspective light and sound world.   Maria Moles (drums), Loretta Wilde (bass/vocals) & Miranda Liebsher (electronics/vocals) - FIRST GIG! Dogs on the loose. Live musical ideas. Prepare to enter the eye of the storm of this musical tornado. That is exactly the imagery that is evoked by this catastrophic trio. All members grew up on a boat in international waters but now live together in Melbourne in a yacht in the docklands. We’re out of fuel and we can’t leave.   THE CONVOY conducts vast luminous orchestral atmospheres by way of real-time processing of electric guitar and electro-acoustic percussives via ¼” tape. Atmospheres immerse and envelop via abstracted, organic and mesmeric audio visual emissions. Here exists a static surface tension, perpetually and intimately comforting, only to be inevitably obliterated by sheer and momentous walls of noise.   Sonorous Circle would like to acknowledge the Wurundjeri people as the traditional custodians of the land that this event is on and pay our respects to Elders past, present and future. See you there!
