Pretty Gritty #6
Enjoy beats, bleeps, bangs and crashes using real and virtual instruments.
Overview
Pretty Gritty is a bimonthly experimental electronica night at Redfern's 107 Projects. It's a place where music shoved under the 'ambient electronica' umbrella can let loose and spit uneven shards of broken melody all around the room, or strip back the layers and bare its quietly reverberating soul. Because electronica can be pretty too.
Beats, bleeps and banging things — that is what's in store at March's Pretty Gritty. The lineup includes Tina Havelock Stevens, who experiments with "frequencies, the electromagnetic pulses of places and times and the inexplicable". Alon Ilsar is on hand to test his latest musical invention, AirSticks, an instrument that allows the user to trigger sound through gestures in the air. Performing using only a high-pressure gas cylinder bell is Steffan Ianigro, a proponent of combining the DIY instrument with electronics. Jon Drummond will work with glitches and textures using handmade electronics and instruments.
