The Bunker presents Irwin, Kassette, gys, Local Fields, and Smartypants at subTonic
Free downstairs, $5 upstairs
Irwin creates very danceable live electronic music using his electronic drum kit, theremin, electronics, and laptop. He has collaborated with everyone from the Beastie Boys to John Cale to Fred Wesley. His live sets are very improvisational ... much more "live" than what usually passes as a live electronic music performance. http://www.irwinmusic.com/ Kassette is Dei Lewison and Zach Clayton. They create innovative soulful electronic music with laptop and live vocals. Dei is best known for her work as a vocalist for Metro Area. Zach studied the music of John Cage at Oberlin, and went on to study with Lamonte Young and Elliott Sharp while composing his own music, which was performed by the Cleveland Symphony Orchestra. Together they create beautiful music that references many cool things, but is totally unique. http://www.kassettemusic.com/ gys released the first record on zer0 g, which immediately caught our attention with it's huge dubbed out basslines. He went on to release his debut album on the label last year. Smartypants has torn up the Bunker dancefloor in the past, and tonight should be no exception. In addition to his skills as a minimal techno and microhouse DJ, Smartypants has been producing and playing live. Tonight he will DJ and play live with Local Fields as Pantyfields. http://www.zer0gsounds.com/
