AARON DILLOWAY:

Detroit native, Ex-Wolf Eyes member, recorder of Nepalese short wave radio signals, and current operator of revered noise imprint Hanson Records, Aaron Dilloway will perform his intense and animated set. Using tape machines and contact mics Dilloway focuses on the clicks, whirs, hums, and other mechanical sounds to focus on mood and atomsphere and build a tension that could only culminate in an intense vocal onslaught.

DAVE FISCHOFF:

Alone in a near downtown Chicago basement apartment (sometimes in his bedroom closet), Secretly Canadian recording artist Dave Fischoff's mind took a very long trip, delving into the under-explored territory. Taking cues from The Beach Boys and Burt Bacharach to Boards of Canada and Public Enemy, Dave Fischoff has conceived, collected, cut and pasted, orchestrated and created a piece of work that is large and complex yet utterly personal and easily accessible.

MARK SOLOTROFF:

A major figure in the US power electronics & noise scene, Mark Solotroff currently runs the label BloodLust! and is a founding member of Bloodyminded. Mark also performs with Jason Soliday and The Fortieth Day. Additionally he is a founding member of Intrinsic Action and the AWB Recording label. Those familiar with Solotroff know of his obsession with microphone sound and for this performance he will be using an array of microphones to pummel, massage, and destroy.
