What?
GRANPA (Warrane)
Lucas ‘Granpa’ Abela (fka Justice Yeldham) has performed their signature instrument; amplified shards of glass for over twenty years now. Their singular practice spawned from the noise music underground, the glass evolving from a means to create ecstatic free-noise cacophonies into an oddly versatile instrument producing some kind of organic electronica. Abela plays the glass by transmitting vibrations into the pane through their lips to control a modular patch using no traditional syntheses techniques. Instead of oscillators & envelope generators all sounds & modulations produced are derived from glass itself. The patch extracting control voltages from the dynamics & frequency of the performance, enabling the glass’ raw audio to modulate itself as it makes its way through varying parallel effects chains producing ghostly accompaniments, which blended together form dense layers of anomalous music.
Granpa will be joined by
Gorgina (Meanjin), Blood Of A Pomegranate & Karina Utomo & Brenna (Wet Kiss)
