Repertoire I've Always Lived Beside Screens, by Mours .; The Invisible Hand, by Raincat .
Description
Aberdonian musician Mours’ presents I’ve Always Lived Beside Screens, a deeply personal performance that explores the nostalgia of simpler times through emotive songs touching on themes of love, lust, anger, death, childhood, existentialism, sexuality, and mundane experiences. Accompanied by a wall of CRT’s displaying childhood home videos and camcorder footage, experience a captivating sonic landscape featuring cassette loops, aggressive synths, glitch beats, ethereal vocals and lyrics that make you reflect upon your existence…
Glasgow based artist and non-musician Raincat aka Dougie Taylor presents The Invisible Hand, an art performance crafted with looper pedals where litter and found objects are played with feathers, animal bones and broken piano parts to create ingenuous sound sculptures. Immerse yourself in a slow-building ritual of ethereal clangs, enchanting chimes, and intriguing scraping sounds. Instead of descending into cacophony, this performance transcends into a shimmering cloud of both visceral intensity and tranquil meditation.
