The final night of improvised party music for the Make It Up Club's
15th birthday is your last chance to come and see five floorshaker
groups whilst simultaneously extending and expanding your neural
pathways with the sonic shamanism that is free improv! First up is a
deep cranial massage courtesy of the analog and digital electronics
wizardry of Stephen Richards, Cooper Bowman and Mitchell Brennan. Once re-initiation into the aleatoric sphere of the MIUC is complete, Joel Stern and Dean Roberts
will be transposing non-existent supernatural songs of voodoo
enchantment through electronics and guitar for your listening pleasure.
Next, a supergroup of sorts, colliding together Berliner Steve Heather's mixed-media drumming, New Zealander Jeff Henderson's confoundingly brilliant reeds, Rod Cooper's über-punk DIY instrumental inventions and John Jacobs'
everythingcore approach to sound production and reproduction for a
collaboration as smashing as the Large Hadron. The musical brains trust
that is the Charles Ives Singers head up a surreal think tank with such luminaries as Mani Neumeier and his prestidigitative percussion, the arm-flailingly tripped-out voice of Paul Kidney and bassist Don Rogers
to try and find some sort of answer to the question: ''what is
psychedelia 40+ years after the fact?''. And what better way to round
out an entire month of partying than with the once-thought-extinct
endemic species avantjazzicus punkbrutalum, better known as bucketrider, in transcontinental collaborative mode, with Tim O’Dwyer and James Wilkinson performing via skype from Singapore with the Melbourne-based buckets, in real-time!
