Paul Stillwell - [excerpt]

Paul Stillwell did bring some acoustic elements to his set — most notably a large PVC pipe overtone flute heard in the closing section here — but also featured some very tasty (and largely ambient) electronic textures.

[FASTER is presenting another excellent night of creative sounds at Gerrard Art Space tomorrow night (September 15th) with visiting improvisers Carl Ludwig Hübsch/Pierre-Yves Martel/Philip Zoubek as well as the ever-quieter Montréal/Toronto force of MagicEyeImage.]

Rick Sacks/Paul Stillwell/Brian Abbott/Mkl 32 - [excerpt 2]

This tasty night of self-curated sounds saw four different ensembles take the floor, backed by visuals generated by Kelley Mitchell. There were plenty of tools on hand for this closing set, from Paul Stillwell's modular synth to Rick Sacks' gongs-and-all percussion setup, opening up all sorts of opportunities from back and forth skritchy-scratches to rolling thunderscapes.

[Brian Abbott will be playing an early set of solo guitar on Monday (May 7th) at the Tranzac, alongside solo sets from Paul Newman and Kayla Milmine.]
