Non_pod and Non-Event are very proud to present the Boston-area debut >of two of digital music¹s most innovative producers, Rosy Parlane and >Dion Workman.

ROSY PARLANE began making music in the early nineties as part of the >free improv and noise scenes in his native New Zealand. After playing >percussion and piano in such acclaimed groups as Thela, Pit Viper, and >Empirical, Parlane began working almost exclusively with electronics. >In 1997 he formed the duo Parmentier with Dion Workman (also ex->Thela). The following year Parlane and Workman founded the Sigma >Editions label, with Parlane¹s acclaimed #1-4 as the imprint¹s >inaugural release. On his most recent CD, Getxo, Parlane continues to >refine his subtle minimal aesthetic, while adding new levels of >complexity through digital production. In addition to his solo >projects, Parlane has collaborated with musicians such as Fennesz and >Peter Rehberg (Pita) of the Austrian Mego imprint and Eddie Prévost of >AMM. Parlane currently lives in London.

DION WORKMAN is an accomplished visual artist and experimental >musician. Workman has exhibited and performed his work throughout his native New Zealand, Australia, Europe, and America. Over the years he has worked >with a wide variety of groups, most notably Thela (with Dean Roberts >and Rosy Parlane) in which he played guitar and the electronic duo >Parmentier. In 1996, he founded the Gallery In Situ; a project space (of no fixed location) for site-specific installations by contemporary >artists. In 1998, he co-founded Sigma Editions with Rosy Parlane. >Workman currently lives in New York.

PARMENTIER is Rosy Parlane and Dion Workman. The two first worked >together as part of the New Zealand based improv rock trio, Thela, >After the dissolution of the trio in 1997, the duo continued to >perform together as Parmentier. Parmentier has released two records of >mesmerizing, densely layered lo-fi electronics: the e.p., Odessa, on Crawlspace Records in 1997 and the CD, Luxsound, on Sigma Editions in >1998. Since then, Parmentier has existed solely as a live project, >touring extensively in Europe and Australia.
