The second week of Make It Up Club's 15th birthday festivities serves
up a delectable buffet of sonic treats to ears hungry for extemporised
waves of energy manifested as reverberations. The first-time trio of Gearoid Brinn, Peter Knight and Gareth Thomson
illustrate methods for divorcing one's instrument from its traditional
techniques through multiple outputs, processing and junk intervention
respectively. Antediluvian Rocking Horse throw the
ultimate improv party as they hack and slash through rave culture,
post-everything culture and a-lack-of-culture as they smash together
other people's music that should probably never, ever have gone together
in the first place. Ex-Melbournite-current-Berliner Anthea Caddy, Australia's greatest avant-violist Erkki Veltheim, and Melbourne's favourite avant-folk genius Frances Plagne
unite for what could be nothing less than pure unadulterated bliss in
string form. Delicious counterpoint to the aforementioned stringbliss
provided by perpetual enfant terribles Brendan Walls and Oren Ambarchi
- enough said. And to top it all off we have the pleasure of bearing
witness to the premiere performance of two of our national treasures, James Rushford and Joe Talia, with an international treasure in Canadian microsound artist Crys Cole,
for a meeting of the minds that should prove to be some of the most
well-considered, delicate and absolutely enjoyable improvised music to
ever hit the Make It Up Club stage.
