Artist: Alex Fournier
Song: Bicycle [composer: Nick Fraser]
Recorded at The Tranzac's Southern Cross Lounge (SynCirSundays), April 10, 2022.
Nilan Perera's Synaptic Circus Sundays (now abbrev.'d to SynCirSundays) has returned to the Tranzac on the second Sunday of the month, bringing a variety of boundary-pushing soundmakers together. The current State of Things calls for improvisation in the curation as well as performance, with some last-minute adjustments to the programme remixing the originally-programmed sets. Stepping in for Rob Clutton, Alex Fournier bravely undertook to stick to the originally-envisioned gameplan, playing a set of Nick Fraser's compositions. Having heard Clutton doing this a few times, it was interesting to see how Fournier brought a different sense of projection to the pieces, with a visceral physical commitment.
You can check out some video documentation from this set here:
[I will be guest-curating the next instalment of SynCirSundays on Sunday, May 8th and be presenting sets from David Parker (visiting from Kingston) as well LordAUK (new solo drones from Doomsquad's Jaclyn Blumas). The June show is already announced as well!]
