PROMO: 2nite 5/25, in Philadelphia...
if u get the chance, come by:
Sun. 5/25: The Infusion, and Greyroom Breakthrough, et al: What happens
when
a musician from North Africa adds electronics to his acoustic guitar and
develops an interest in free improv and the avantgarde of Europe? What if
he teamed
up with two "rock" musicians of similar interests from the US and Europe?
The
answer is THE INFUSION. Camel Zekri is a descendant of generations of
Algerian musicians. Olivier Paquotte is a bassist who lives in Nancy,
France. He
uses his instruments for its sonic capabilities, with feedback, distortion
and
slide he gives it a wide range, sometimes like a guitar, sometimes like a
drum.
And Ron Anderson - NYC-based founder of The Molecules and PAK (toured the
U.S.
with Ruins, also played w/ Elliott Sharp, Marc Ribot, Otomo Yoshihide,
Yamamoto of Boredoms) - also gets many unusual sounds from the instruments
he plays
- trumpet through echo, drum machine in real time, and electric guitar
blending with the other two musicians. Opening will be local space
sounds/ambient
experimenters Greyroom Breakthrough. Plus, the Highwire Gallery in Old
City will
lend some of their resident improvisers for the evening. 8pm.
