Grouper presents ‘Violet Replacement’

Grouper unveils a haunting new performance entitled ‘Violet Replacement’ comprised of tape loops, field recordings and submerged atmospherics presented in a set of naturally resonant and specially customised locations.
Grouper is a recording and performing project by Liz Harris. She lives and works in Portland, Oregon. Since 2005 she has released a flow of LPs, CDRs and tapes into the world on labels like Type, Room40 and her own Yellow Electric imprint.
Grouper’s live shows are rare occurrences and are always in tune with the architecture and acoustics of a space. For this tour she performs a new collection of tape collages derived from a commission for New York’s Issue Project Room. Field recordings, Wurlitzer loops and vocal tracks from her archives are mixed, spliced and processed live from an array of dictaphones and tape players.

Diamond Catalog

“NNA is proud to present the debut LP by Diamond Catalog, the new duo of Lala Conchita and “Glamorous” Pat Maherr (Indignant Senility, Expressway Yo-Yo Dieting, and so on). This full-length is the definitive statement of Diamond Catalog’s concoction of cross-bred dance music and mutated, swirling noise bricolage. “Magnified Palette” seems to exist in five dimensions of sound, with factory-booming beats creating a mechanical-yet-organic framework for devious sonic chatter to wind its way through. Imagine the sound of a distant rave in the midst of a disorienting drug spell, wading your way through the infinity of your mind’s own dark matter.”  NNA Tapes

 

SWLLWS/Sian Macfarlane presents a new work exploring the Victorian séance, and its roots in the pain of the loss of loved ones.

An exploration of the world of the séance, popular in Victorian times, where spiritualism was at its height, this piece will incorporate family snaps, slides, and super 8 footage as well as found sounds.
