Has it really been a year since Dread Pirate rik and Sovaak the Scurvy
Sock Monkey of mara's torment took to the high seas in search of the
mythic Jade Llama? Whoa, time sure does fly! In celebration of their
return to THE AMBiENT PiNG stage the pair have put together an eclectic
collection of sea shanties and singalongs designed to celebrate both the
excitement of their days at sea and the PiNG's Seventh Anniversary.
Needless to say rik and Sovaak look forward to sharing a bill with 
both dreamSTATE and naw, and to reacquainting themselves 
with some old familiar faces. Yaaaarrrrr!!!!

Electronic sound artists dreamSTATE celebrate the launch of "OM", 
their 3rd CD and their 1st live performance release, with (what else!) 
a fresh live performance. "OM" is an ambient soundscape journey 
recorded live at the OM Festival 2000 in Trudeau Park, Tweed, 
Ontario and in the spirit of that performance, dreamSTATE will 
create a free-ranging soundflow to carry the audience off into 
an alternative mindspace. They're very happy that psychedelic 
lightlords General Chaos Visuals will be along for the trip!

naw is Neil Wiernik (co-curator of the online digital arts quarterly
vagueterrain.net) and his sound is warm, atmospheric and cinematic -
firmly grounded in both the rich traditions of dub studio culture and
formal contemporary composition. 'The Wire' recently described it 
as having "the kind of sharpness and clarity usually lost amid the 
murk and decay of clicks and cuts and digital delays." Upon 
learning that the Tranzac has a high quality stereo PA, Neil 
has decided to perform pieces from his sets at Mutek this 
year - works originally arranged for immersive listening.
