Joseph Hammer - tape Thomas Dimuzio - sampler & Dimmer (Dimuzio & Hammer collaboration)


Thursday, Jan 29 2003 8:00 PM $6-10 sliding scale, no one turned away...


++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++

Joseph Hammer, a sound artist from Los Angeles, has actively
created experimental works since 1980. His practice draws
on the complexities of the process of listening and playing,
reflecting on the role of the audience versus the performer, and
uses music as it influences our notion of time, memory and
intimacy as the basis for improvisation and abstraction. As a
member of the trio Solid Eye, Hammer has performed widely
(including a recent one month tour of Japan) and is an influential
contributor to the Los Angeles underground scene. For his tape
work, Joseph uses a reel-to-reel monaural deck from the early
1950's. By manipulating the tape as it passes the record and
playback heads, he creates music with layered and warped
sounds from different sources.

Thomas Dimuzio is one of those unsung artistic figures whose influence and abilities have substantially outstripped his visibility. Composer, multi-instrumentalist, sound designer, experimental electronic musician and recording studio owner, Dimuzio has been busy doing his thing(s) since the late 1980s with critically acclaimed releases issued by the legendary house of audio misanthropy, RRRecords and former Henry Cow drummer (and current Dimuzio collaborator) Chris Cutler's well-regarded ReR Megacorp label. Equally fluent in a nearly every contemporary post-techno style, Dimuzio's work clearly demonstrates an insider's knowledge of older experimental musical forms such as musique concréte and electroacoustic, as well as contemporary ambient-industrial and noise.

"Dimuzio bears comparison with DJ Spooky in his grasp of
sonic futurism, but where Spooky's work thrives on dub - the
delays and recalls of paranoid consciousness - this is clean
edged and fleeting, a music of high speed planes, trains and
generators. If King Crimson had studied under Edgar Varese."
- Matt Ffytche, The Wire
