DOGMA I (DOMINIQUE BANOUN & ALAN BLOOR) . Visitors to the Somewhere There performance art space will be familiar with the many musical sides of Alan Bloor and Dominique Banoun, but the PING has mostly only witnessed Alan playing metal as Pholde and sometimes as Knurl so we've invited both Alan and Dominique to do something a little different to open the night. 9:15 . dreamSTATE with PHOLDE + PHIL OGISON . There's no better key than E so dreamSTATE invited guitarist PHIL OGISON and PHOLDE (Alan Bloor) to help them space out for the 9th instalment of the drone. This melding of metal, strings and electronics will surely result in a klangerous blend of progressive psychedelia. http://www.dreamstate.to 10:15 . AMOEBA STARFISH . Amoeba Starfish is Phil Ogison (electric guitars and synths) and Jeff Howard (e-percussion, non-keyboard synths and vocal driven textures). Guaranteed to thrill you with sounds much larger than you'd expect from a duo who, having played together off and on for over 20 years, now choose to freely improvise completely live. Imagine elements of progressive jazz/rock fusion, ambient soundscapes and alt rock tumbled together into a unique quadrant of space called Quantum Jazz! http://www.reverbnation.com/amoebastarfish# . GENERAL CHAOS VISUALS . When it comes to progressive psychedelia who better than the chaotic duo, Stephen Lindsey and Eric Siegerman, to paint the room with mind bending light, shadow and fog. http://www.generalchaosvisuals.ca . Though media-man Johnny Trelawny and his VoodooTV have moved on from Supermarket (Thanks for all the shows Johnny!), those in the know last month caught a new PiNG Livestream that was set up and streaming thanks to Jeff Howard. We're going to try to get the stream flowing again this month for those of you outside of Toronto so you might still be able to plug in to the PiNG's virtual window to have a listen and sneak a peek: http://www.livestream.com/theambientping . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . .
