WZT Hearts
The world is our sound source and Jimmy Buffett sells us our
microphones," says Mike Haleta, the self-described "commuting
member" (he now resides in New Jersey) of
Baltimore quartet Wzt Hearts. It's a
strange comment from the former French Mistake member and current
laptop wrangler, but also telling. The music of Wzt Hearts is
definitely wide open, alternately conjuring images of noise gristle,
free-jazz wallop, psychedelic expansiveness, and the intellectual
curiosity of modern composition.
Formed in early 2004 at the behest of former Cutter/Hammer drummer
Shaun Flynn, and also featuring guitarist/multi-instrumentalist
Jeff
Dolandson (also of French Mistake) and laptopper Jason Urick.
Since
forming Wzt Hearts have played extensively throughout Baltimore
and
the East Coast often supporting such high-profile names as Pita,
Animal Collective, Keith Rowe (AMM) Gang Gang Dance, Lungfish,
and
Sightings.
Ghost Moth
GHOST MOTH began in April 2006 when guitarist/junk-jammer, MIALESSOT
asked free-jazz multi-instrumentalist DANIEL CARTER to join with
him
and knobbie-twister, OLD GHOST for a recording session. The result
of
that performance laid the foundation of what was to come. The
first 2
recordings were released under the moniker, MIALESSOT w/ DANIEL
CARTER &
OLD GHOST. They played two shows as HEMORRHAGE, but have since
been
known as GHOST MOTH. You can find more music from them on MIALESSOT's
myspace page at myspace.com/mialessot.
Daniel Carter is known from his work in TEST! and OTHER DIMENSIONS
IN MUSIC.
GHOST MOTH establishes each space it inhabits as a Temporary
Autonomous Zone (T.A.Z.) declaring absolute freedom, "freedom
of" and "freedom from". Leaderless
in collaboration. A belief in improvisation
and anarchy as a gateway to the sublime.
Sands
Sands is the new musical project of Sarah Lipstate (One Umbrella/Noveller),
Riley O'Brien, and Megan Paska. The trio uses ebowed
double-necked guitar, electronics, voice, and electric guitar
to
create textured sound pieces that evolve from the melodic to
the
abstract.
