Live solo set at Cafe Oto (London)

STEPHEN CORNFORD + GRAHAM DUNNING + JOHN MACEDO

Monday 2 June 2014
Door Times : 8pm
Tickets : £6 adv / £7 on the door

A night of tactile and mechanical electronics with three solo performances by Stephen Cornford, Graham Dunning, and John Macedo.

Following from my set at Stryx and show-and-tell for If Wet for Supernormal I’ll play my first solo live set at Cafe Oto.

“Situationist Giuseppe Pinot-Gallizio built machines to make abstract expressionist paintings on long rolls of canvas. My ongoing project, Music By The Metre, is an audio homage to Pinot-Gallizio: music making machines that fill spools of tape with abstract music. Lee Scratch Perry described dub as “the ghost in me coming out.” By performing a live dub on a music making contraption I will release the ghost in the machine.

Vinyl dissonance for lost memories: a live rhythmical collage made of squeezed record crackle, analogue synthesizer, dubplates of field recordings, dusty shellac records and clumsily triggered drumsynth. Mechanical techno, ghost in the machine music.” – Graham Dunning
