Monophonic Antelope Cabal Showcase

Friday, December 28
Admission:$5, $10 minimum
Showtime: 10pm - 3am
reservations are recommended

The Monophonic Antelope Cabal is a collective of electronic musicians from Pennington NJ. Active since 1995, MAC artists have cranked out fresh and exciting live electronic performances in New York, Philly and New Jeruvistan. This night marks the first time all of them have performed under one roof. Join us for a night of live meepyfloop, side tempo pound puppy breaks, difficult listening, deep regressive acid-frog and snail-core.

The Performers:

Leisure Muffin, (Michael Hopkins), has been making electronic music since the early 90's and his style cris crosses everything from ambient to electro, hip hop, minimal house, and dub. Currently, Leisure Muffin lives in his grandmothers basement surrounded by creepy dolls. When not engaging in flame wars on the Ableton Live online forums, he somehow finds time to craft regressive epic
meepyfloop tracks. Among his 12 friends, he is considered to be the greatest meepyfloop producer EVER. Be advised to keep your children and pets away from him.

Based in the Philadelphia area, Charles Cohen has been amazing and challenging audiences for over 20 years. His music is entirely improvisational and produced solely on a vintage Buchla Music Easel synthesizer. Tonight he's probably going to do a short solo set and also improvise with Muffin.

Rising out of the post-rave ashes of the mid-90s, EarCrack (Kyle P. Burke) has been making electronic music since 1995. Pioneering the Squonk genre with Leisure Muffin, his style was defined by heavy rhythmic bass-scapes, crossing the lines between electro, hip hop, dub and techno. Over the last 12 years EarCrack has added ghettoized electro, experimental chop-up, Bollywood remixes, and freestyle
rapping in triplets to his repertoire. For this performance, he plans to debut his most recent stylistic development: chopped up Crunk and Reggaeton, mixed in with bassy breaks. Inspired by the unabashed combination of techno and pop paradigms in various countries from West Africa to India, EarCrack seeks to combine disparate musical realms into one sensual, bass-heavy sound that mandates dancing.

Sonic crusader, New Jersey Warrior Priest, Sam Haar has been making electronic music since he was 14 years old and playing in the local New Jersey synth-glam industrial phenomena Si*. Since then Sam has developed his music into greater realms; his multi-layered artistic vision includes site-specific sonic experience music, sound pieces for acoustic instruments with or without electronics, custom built multi-channel video instruments, and kinetic sound sculptures. Hailing from New Jersey, and wearing it proudly, Sam now lives in Oakland, California, where the freaks and geeks mix it up real nice in the redwood forests.

For this monophonic antelope cabal showcase Mr. Haar will be dropping his dance floor latest. Unafraid to traverse electronic dance music sub-genres, his music effortlessly slips in and out of expected/conditioned limitations, tweaking the subtle and intricate qualities of sound while leaving space for the raucous and the hypnotic.
