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 reaquainting themselves with some old familiar faces. Yaaaarrrrr!!!! http://www.marastorment.com Electronic soundartists 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 freeranging 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! http://www.dreamSTATE.to 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 the pieces he presented at his second show at Mutek this year - works originally arranged for immersive headphone listening. http://www.phoniq.net Look for the ping things table to get your fix of ambient, electronic, trip hop, dream pop and chill music until the next PiNG - or go online to: http://www.pingthings.com *ping things will be the exclusive source for dreamSTATE's new "OM" CD from August 18th until October.
