Who are concerts for? How are they organized to suit different audiences? Limitations of "concert infrastructure", probably more than limitations of imagination mean these questions aren't too often poked at — but this trio has been putting their minds to how to present music for the younger set, filling the floor with blankets and making a cozy zone for young ones and parents to soak in some Sunday afternoon sounds.
This experiment lead to some important observations — the youngest bebbers do well with the ambient sounds, and can float along with an unrushed drift, while the older toddlers, eager to move and grab the world, are more engaged by something exciting and interactive. There were gestures in both those directions here, with a retelling of Jack and the Beanstalk having a few dramatic flourishes as well as some spacious unfurling between episodes. More shows to follow, I'm told, expanding on the lessons learned here, so keep an eye out.
Given the relaxed atmosphere at this show, these clips have a field recording quality to them with some foreground murmurings co-existing with the music, but that's okay too — I hear babies cry, I watch them grow / They'll learn much more / Than I'll ever know.
This time out, I was happy to invite Ministry of Phonic Services to program the sets — all the better to lean back and relax a bit on the tenth anniversary of TCB's first show. A cheerful collaborator and collector of shared experiences, this solo turn was a last-minute pivot, but gave %%30%30 (a.k.a. MPS co-founder Colin C.) a chance to present some compositions (or "improvised scenarios") for his collection of percussive bricabrac. This crowd-pleasing set-closer was a demonstration of Bernoulli's principle, allowing various metal implements to buzz, rattle and scream on contact with dry ice.

This time out, I was happy to invite Ministry of Phonic Services to program the sets — all the better to lean back and relax a bit on the tenth anniversary of TCB's first show. This set brought together Maebh Clark (a.k.a. Dame Cook) and Lucas Dvorsky (a.k.a. Woolworm, Ontario), a pair of laptopists performing together for the first time. There was the looming petential of noise freakouts exploding at any instant, but the pair explored a lot of different textures, building up from some mellower zones into contrasting digital debriscapes.

Busy times continue for Labyrinth Ontario (and the Labyrinth Ensemble), with their ongoing small-scale gigs (including their regular Tranzac residency nights) leading once more to a large scale spectacular at the Aga Khan.
This spring, Labyrinth is bringing Âriâ Mohâfez to Toronto for his Canadian debut. "Mohâfez is an internationally renowned santur player passionate about preserving and performing traditional and contemporary Iranian dastgāh music. An expert performer, composer, ensemble leader, and teacher, Mohâfez will lead the 13 member Labyrinth Ensemble through two weeks of intense training. This meeting of sonic traditions and cultural backgrounds will produce unlimited possibilities for creation and collaboration."
Here's some beautiful, stripped-down sounds from Mohâfez — it's exciting to imagine what this could sound like with the full group on stage. (And if you follow their social media, you'll catch some realtime updates over the next couple weeks as things take shape.)

Always a treat when there's something new from Shotgun Jimmie:
This joint tour brought together Maria Chavez, Evicshen (aka Victoria Shen), and Mariam Rezaei — three noted figures in the realm of avant-turntablism. Don't try and situate this in the realm of hip-hop chicka-chicka-womp, this hewed toward advanced/abstract electroacoustic collage. Each of the artists brought their own style and signifiers, but on this night Shen was the most visceral crowd-pleaser, bringing some chaotic noise show vibes to the proceedings, including some accidental punkrock property damage with a bullwhip routine gone awry.
Kristina Guison's sculptural works often have conceptual or "installation-y" elements to them — and this staged performance definitely had those vibes, but with more of a straight-ahead musicality as well. Exploring a trio of applications for sheet metal, this set encompassed metronomic clonks and bow-sawing wails.
[Kristina Guison will be making some further explorations as part of Ministry of Phonic Services' show at Agenda Cafe + Bar on Saturday (April 26th).]
This new-ish unit under the guidance of drummer Nick Fraser (presumably not brought together to disparage the regular topics of his other bands) sees him joined by frequent collaborator Josh Cole on double bass as well as a pair of younger horn players in Kae Murphy and Max Stover. Starting (as heard here) from the newest entry in his musical sketchbook and working through some other recent entries, there was lots of room for the performers to jab at the loose structures from different angles.
This ensemble was originally constructed to essay Mira Martin-Gray's "Four Seasons", a suite with four movements introduced by haiku. In Martin-Gray's absence, the group presented the piece — and with the evening's trivia portion postponed, ended up performing for two sets, improvising a bit and trying out a few pieces by members Clutton and Tielli.
You can check out the full Four Seasons and some more from this night over on youtube:

Returning to the Southern Cross for teh first residency appearance of 2025, Cosmic Homeostasis was shifted from its traditional fifth-Sunday-of-the-month but still had a robust turnout to generate some drifting space-drones.
You can listen to the full session over on Bandcamp:
You know it's not business as usual when you arrive for a DMA recital at the music school and greet your candidate as he's setting out a big jar of earplugs for the audience. Coordinating the proceedings in a Meshuggaht-shirt, Nolan Hildebrand's afternoon of music presumably had the requisite rigour required by his professors, but kept things wrapped in noise show aesthetics.
With an eight-channel speaker array set up around the auditorium, many of the pieces used spacialization effects quite nicely, moving from the interstitial audio collages to the performaces on stage. There was an inneresting variety to those as well, ranging from Hildebrand's own solo improvisations for modular synth (with some cool sound-triggered visualizations) to pieces for violin and MAX patch, to a percussion ensemble, to the all-star group (Colin Fisher, Patrick O'Reilly, Louis Pino) joining Hildebrand on this piece.

It happened this week...
...on April 8, 2012 at The Garrison (Crosswires #7).
Once more, the Women From Space Festival filled up the, er, space at 918 Bathurst with joyous, colourful art and an enthusiastic community vibe. After big band blasts and movement in the round, the third and final night brought some top-tier sounds to the stage.
The festival closed with this trio (a distillation of the larger quintet of the same name), seeing pianist Myra Melford joined by Ingrid Laubrock (sax) and Lesley Mok (percussion). True to the group's moniker, there were some energetic, burning passages here was well as slower, deep-flowing conversations.
Once more, the Women From Space Festival filled up the, er, space at 918 Bathurst with joyous, colourful art and an enthusiastic community vibe. After big band blasts and movement in the round, the third and final night brought some top-tier sounds to the stage.
Leading off the night with some nible vocal interactions, this was a homecoming show of sorts for Mingjia Chen, who was joined by Linnea Sablosky in essaying two suites of hockets by Meara O’Reilley — one was explicitly for two voices, while they opened with a series that abstracted the vocalization process to an extra remove by re-arranging flute duos. Very precise and technically deep stuff that still sounded fun and spontaneous throughout.
Founded as a blog about one curmudgeon's love affair with the em dash, Mechanical Forest Sound has grown to become a community-based archive of local musical culture. Assuming that "independent music" isn't just boys with guitars and "culture" isn't just some sort of pageant, MFS is an investigation of a wide range of artists, reflecting on concerts as shared experiences, acts of citizenship and a chance to get down — fuzzy photographs and clear-sounding original live recordings a specialty.
Current manifestations of this project include Track Could Bend, a monthly concert series featuring "improvised music and weird rock offshoots", presented in a casual environment.
At one point I wrote full-on concert reviews, and for longer I thought I would catch up and write about shows in the past. But these days, because of, y'know, life, do not expect much in the way of full show reviews — but live recordings with blurbs will be posted as quickly after the fact as is feasible.
You can also check out full sets uploaded to the Live Music Archive. [not currently active]
N.B.: All recordings should be available & playable. If you come across any broken links, invisible or non-functioning players, etc, please leave a comment and I will tend to it ASAP.
ALSO N.B.: I'm perpetually on the lookout for a new place to stash my MP3's online. If you know of any place that allows a couple gigs of stuff to be openly linked to for streaming, drop me a line!
All MP3's on this blog are audience recordings shared as a reminder of the excitement of seeing live music. If you are an artist who doesn't want their music shared in this way, please contact me and I shall remove it forthwith.
