  Electronica

  17 Feb 2012

  In these solo performances I'm working with an unstable system of different signal inputs being fed into an analog synthesizer, which I in turn feed back into itself, creating at times volatile and unpredictable layers of sound. Always at some point in these concerts I cede control to the system as it determines its own momentun: implosion, explosion, stasis, density, silence. This duo, formed in Barcelona in 2010, employs modified domestic appliances as sound sources. Two faces, two approaches which reveal the same enigma: that of sounds shaped in the moment of their own creation, by way of the simple contact of fingers, or of electricity passing through the internal circuits of the modified devices - or perhaps the amplification of materials (rather than objects) placed on the turntable of a record player. Philip Julian has been an active part of the experimental music underground since the late 1990’s recording numerous works under the name Cheapmachines. \n
