Sarah Davachi - unknown [excerpt]

Nominally a "punk" presenter, Not Dead Yet is best known for its namesake festival, but its year-round programming is also noted for fostering positive community vibes. As this drone dream of a show indicated, they're also willing to stretch out, musically, and it was a thrill to see a healthy and mixed crowd out for a night of zero-bpm hovering. Although recent recordings have featured mellotron, harpsichord and pipe organ, this touring show from the Canadian-born/LA-based drone superstar was a minimalist, synth-based affair. Eschewing banter or any stage dramatics, Davaci simply let her music slowly unfold and embrace the audience, delicious soundscapes slowly shifting and morphing before evaporating into the air.
