Burning Chrome featuring Bit Reduction & Prospero electronic improv sessions

On September 12th, Bit Reduction and Prospero took to the stage at Burning Chrome.

Bit Reduction

For this performance he patched a modular synthesizer system from scratch, building the sound up cable by cable, using very little external gear. The only preconceived notion was to exploit feedback paths. As such, the result was unpredictable, harsh, and largely unpleasant – in the best of ways.

 

The result was an eclectic and memorable experience that left everyone calling for more. Follow Craig Renaud’s project on his soundcloud page and stay tuned for future performances.

 

Prospero

Born as a solo project in August 2001 under musician and DJ Wade Anderson, Prospero’s music fuses traditional industrial electronics with a variety of acoustic percussion and exotic instruments. In their fifth album “Paradise or Apocalypse” Prospero continues to explore new themes galvanized by the addition of tribal and folk elements as well as vocals from Sandford and Veela.

What is Live Improv?

The idea is for the musician to approach the show with no pre-conceived idea’s about re-producing tracks. Some elements including sounds, instruments and patterns may have been researched but no practiced and no sequenced. There is no plan about what to play or when. What happens at the show will be all created and programmed on the fly.

BIT REDUCTION

Power noise & gritty ambient project, a mesmerizing blend of distortion and harmony.

Prospero has done this type of show twice in the past. Once with Displacer in 2012 at a Darkrave and once solo at Live Event Sunday’s at the Savage Garden Night Club.

Burning Chrome feat. Autovoice & Dj High Voltage + Visuals by SΛRIN

Burning Chrome feat. Autovoice live

Burning Chrome returns to its home at 2872 Dundas Street West on April 12th with yet another sublime guest performance by AUTOVOICE with Projection Visuals by SΛRIN.

Prepare your ears for strange symphonies…

[ Autovoice + Visuals by SΛRIN ]

Founded in 1995 in congruence with the artistic vision of Johnny S., Autovoice is an experiment combining the raw energy of industrial, sombre dark ambient influences and noise accents. Through numerous collaborations with other artists, Autovoice has evolved a singularly eccentric and nebulously alluring sound, delivering indelible live performances.

[ DJ High Voltage ]

Jarod had his start as a DJ in the Oshawa area in 1992. At the end of 1994
he became a frequent guest at The Catacombs in Toronto for Sound Sphere,
a showcase for abstract electronica and IDM. He watched his friends from back home develop industrial and synth projects such as Technocratz, Auracle and Autovoice. He then guested at the Lust & Rust parties on Richmond Street, hosted by DJ Mars. These eventually became the more populist event known as The Freak Show. For this set, Jarod will be returning to his roots, presenting a wide-ranging retrospective of his more creative gigs throughout the nineties. Several tracks will be taken directly from his sets for the Smerk parties at Holy Joe’s / The Big Bop which were hosted by Peter of Belladonna Killz. This set is dedicated to him.
