Thu 7th The Luminaire and Club AC30 presents CHRIST. + Isan + †ðm¢å†§ ïñ †ðk¥ð + epic45 [DJ set]
Doors 7.30 Since his first solo release proper in 2002, Christ. has proved to be as individual and creative as the next guy, forging a unique path of musical beauty that escapes derivation. Christ.'s expert layers of melody, broken beats and textures say pretty much everything, and along with his popularity as a formidable live act, he is a rare breed indeed. Christ. is an abbreviation of his real name, Christopher Horne, which also explains the full stop which is an official part of his handle. Christ.'s music is often likened to that of fellow Scottish electronic group Boards of Canada. In fact, Horne was an early participant in the nebulous Hexagon Sun collective from which BoC emerged and was a collaborator with the group until approximately 1995, appearing on the 'Twoism' album, reissued by Warp in 2002. From minimalism to melody and back again, Isan have been on a musical journey since a chance meeting brought together Robin Saville and Antony Ryan in Leicester in 1996. Once they'd discovered their shared love for electronic music and decided to work together, not much has been discussed. Isan prefer to allow their sound to develop on its own, allowing their intuitive grasp of melody and the manipulation of sound to dictate their direction. We'll have info on †ðm¢å†§ ïñ †ðk¥ð in a minute. |
