An evening of psychic sonic experimentation with AREA
C and Eyes Like Saucers, two like-minded
souls from Providence, Rhode Island's fertile bed of sound. With
Brooklyn's indie trio KIND MONITOR opening the
evening with their minimalist and wistful folk rock, sweet but
always hinting at a darkness hidden somewhere within.
AREA
C - dubbed "space rock for the information age"
by WIRE magazine, AREA C weaves a complicated web of sound from
minimal sources, mainly guitar, field recordings, Farfisa organ
and harmonium, drawing on remnants of other times and places,
outdated and untested technologies, signals sent out but never
received... With a new trance-like cd called "haunt"
out on the Last Visible Dog label, AREA C will be bringing some
droning, weathered sounds of repetition and decay on tour this
summer.

"...sometimes surging in an almost Dik Mikly fashion, at
others hanging back like memories of Popol Vuh.... If you enjoy
the vibe of Florian Fricke's work (especially around the time
of his early Herzog soundtracks), AREA C will make your boat stand
up and fly right off a waterfall." - The WIRE
EYES
LIKE SAUCERS - eyes like saucers is the solo project
of jeffrey k., formerly the farfisa organist for secret eye recording
artists - urdog. with eyes like saucers, the darker and more organic
regions of inner space are explored via a slightly modified indian
pedal harmonium, effected voice, assorted percussion and electronics.
drawing inspiration from such artists as nico, robert wyatt, carl
orff, and early 20th century german poet, georg trakl, the incessant
and labored breathing of the ancient harmonium evokes a bleak
and troubled age that, ironically, can best be surmised as a post-apocalyptic
era that we have as yet to arrive upon.

"...the player is either a genius or slightly retarded, probably
a mixture of both; though regardless the work is nothing short
of incredible." - bob baker fish, cyclic defrost
KIND MONITOR – Kind Monitor
condenses all the poppy effervescence of the 80s bands that breast-fed
Guthals during his upbringing in the West and combines it with
a minimalist appreciation of three-part rock and f---in' roll,
making the music a tribute to all things left behind. Although
only in their first year of band-ship, band members Brickley,
Guthals, and Manalili are learning to create together the kind
of songs both about -- and of which --legends are made. Kind Monitor
are pained, wobbly, and adorable.
SKYE
T - I am interested in coupling all my media experiences
into an uneasy flickering glob of pop culture; a sort of giddy
candy-colored spectacle that is complicated by melodramatic gestures
and improvised psychosexual absurdity
