Sasquatch Sounds and Skew present an afternoon at the Old Ambulance Station art space, Nambour.
Proudly Presenting
Lucas Abela, Toecutter, Lesbian Merzbow, Josh Shipton, Mutter.
Featuring
Lucas ‘Granpa’ Abela (fka Justice Yeldham) he has been performing their signature instrument; amplified shards of glass for over twenty years now. Their singular practice spawned from the noise music underground, where the glass evolved from a means to create ecstatic free-noise cacophonies into an oddly versatile instrument producing some form of organic electronica. Abela plays the glass by vibrating their lips against the pane to create both audio and the envelopes controlling parameters within a modular patch that uses no traditional synthesis techniques, all sounds and modulations derived from glass itself. For the Grey Nomad tour Abela will be conducting a question-and-answer session after the show, explaining their patch and similar techniques used in their recent collaborative album with Zach Hill (Death Grips) ‘bag-of-max-bag-of-cass’ on Warp records.
Lesbian Merzbow
Self trepanning at the little-rave, 2025 we're raping men.
Josh Shipton
(Sydney, Gadigal), (established 1652) will be creating sound and noisescapes with an array of pedals and his voice. As an atheistic Buddhist, he makes sure that every time he makes something beautiful he ruins it with one of these shows. He takes his medication but it doesn’t seem like it.
Mutter
Sufi mystic H-I-K says; “a person does not hear sound only through the ears; he hears sound through every pore of his body. It permeates the entire being.”
As new eyes and hands emerge of sacred sound vibration you too renew all through. Now, hear Mutter unveil [in a beam of light] his cosmic child: Mooncast. File under Australian esoteric electronics.
