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.
