Asmus Thietchens

The Hamburg based avantgarde composer Asmus Tietchens is one of the most important figures in the field of non-academic electronic music and sound manipulation. Since the 70ies he has published more than 70 CDs on labels all around the world (Staalplaat, Multimood, line, aufabwgeen, Die Stadt, Soleilmoon, Korm Plastics, United Dairies, etc.) and has collaborated with many sound artists (Thomas Köner, Vidna Obmana, Okko Bekker, Achim Wollscheid, etc.). Since the early days his music has evolved from rhythm-based synth tunes to free sound manipulations with a strong sensivity for the sources being used. His sounds are both analytical and emotional. Recently he has been working on a series of transformed white noise and sine wave tones that resulted in a three CD series on the renowned Ritornell/Mille Plateaux label.

Tietchens is also a theoretician and teacher of music. At Hamburg Politech he teaches soundscapes and publishes essays on musical phenomena in magazines such as Bad Alchemy or Auf Abwegen. In 2003 Asmus Tietchens has been the first composer outside of subsidized New Music to win the famous Karl Sczuka Prize for radiophonic composition at the Donaueschinger Musiktage (awarded ba South German National radio SWR with 12.500 euros). Tietchens was given the prize for his work “Sechs Heidelberger Studien“ in which he transformed the sounds of a massive printing device (Heidelberger Tiegel) into his own sound-compositions.

Asmus Tietchens will be accompanied by DJ Zipo from aufabwegen magazine and label in Germany. Aufabwgeen has published a monography about Asmus Tietchens in 1998 and various works on CD, among them collaborations with Jon Mueller and Richard Chartier. Tietchens also contributes to Auf Abwgeen magazine.
DJ Zipo will play a set of drone/field recordings/avantgare collages before and after the concert.

Mike Gangloff and Cara Joyce Live at D7 6. March 2014

D7 (next to Mayhem) Ragnhildsgade 1 KBH.
entrance 50kr
Start 21:00

Mike Gangloff is a wandering spirit in contemporary American folk and psychedelic Musick.
He first visited Copenhagen in 2002 with the group Pelt which saw a cast of real heads including the nonchalant and always curious Jack Rose(R.I.P). 
Mike has since then continued his work in a acoustic raga inspired form with Pelt, but his bulk of work over the recent many years has also seen him delve into the Fiddle and Banjo adopting his Virginia home music styles as Bluegrass and whatever else comes from the mountains.... In groups such as Spiral Joy Band and The Black Twig Pickers.
This evening at D7 he will play a set with his travelling companion in life and on this tour Cara Joyce. So come and see what's what.

Samara Lubelski (US) - Solo violin optræden
Family Underground (DK)

entré 50kr.
døre kl 20:30
showtime 21:30

Samara Lubelski er en amerikansk sanger, guitarist og violinist. Bosat og opvokset på Lower Eastside, NYC. Lubelski har været aktiv i den amerikanske undergrund siden start 1990'erne
og har spillet i bands som Sonora Pine, Hall Of Fame, Jackie O Motherfucker, Bummer Road o.m.a.
For nylig har man kunnet se hende optræde som bassist og violinist i Chelsea Light Moving, Thurston Moore's post Sonic Youth band.
Lubelski har udgivet en række solo albums igennem nullerne, hovedsageligt på pladeselskaberne Social Registry og Destijl.
Med større sikkerhed har hun fundet frem til sin egen stemme. Musikken er altid en rimelig atmosfærisk tilmed psykedelisk musik med rødder i amerikansk experimetalisme og mere esoteriske genrer.
I denne forfatters øjne har hun altid haft et strejf af Science Fiction(litteraturen), som Lubelski holder meget af.
På denne aften kan vi stolt præsentere Samara Lubelski solo på violin. Et instrument hun har udforsket på pladen 'In The Valley' (C.O.M 7) i 2002.
Desuden har Lubelski, sammen med den amerikanske guitarist Marcia Basset(Double Leopards, Hototogisu), lavet to fantastiske abstrakte plader med violin og guitar som hovedinstrumenter.
Så Lubelski er dykket dybere og dybere ned i de mikrotonale proportioner violinen kan levere samtidig med at hun er trådt fuldt ud som en gedigen rocker.
Denne tour er med pladen 'String Cycle' der udkommer på det belgiske selskab Ultra Eczema.

Family Underground har lige udgivet en ny LP på pladeselskabet Into The Lunar Night Recordings.
LP'en 'The Dark Light Years' er kommet ud af et års arbejde med en række sange der danner bro mellem industriel rock og abstrakt minimalisme.
FU har spillet og arbejdet i KBH gennem de sidste 12 år og med denne deres 13. vinyl udgivelse hilser de et nyt velkommen som opvarming for en næsten ligeså gammel ven Lubelski.
