Singaporean mixed-media duo Are bring their swirling soundscapes and dreamt out narratives to Australia for the first time this July.
The duo (Frank and Li Shuen) invites the Listener to psych-art arrangements that sway between loud guitars, colourful electronics, and lyrical tales in impossible time. They have performed and recorded in Japan and Singapore, from a museum to an abandoned house.
Following the noise-driven early 2017 LP, The Circolusion Will Be Serialized, they will now create Cannonball, an album based upon a film to be shot on tour whilst in Australia.
Recorded with toy synths and analogue tape decks, Cannonball is a whirling blend of melodic psychedelia and grainy electronics. It is an exploration into presenting and creating work in unreality upon lines of sound and picture compositions.
Canberra based trumpeter and sound artist Ben Marston launches his new 7″ ‘in walked pris’, a collaboration with Norwegian sound artist Simen Løvgren following their meeting at renowned Punkt Festival in 2015.
