Existence: Vol. 37 at FUKUGAN, July 17th, 8PM
An Evening of Variable Duos.
I don't know the experimental turn-tablist Katsura Mouri, so I can't advise. But I can say that if you've never seen Tim Olive or Shin'ichi Isohata, you should. Tim plays electric bass in a way that is singularly unique, creating textures and sounds that range from that mechanical surgery you remember hearing from the haunted attic of your nightmares to delicate noise phrases that RadioHead would wet their beds to sample. He uses no processing effects, so you know the sounds you're getting are pure, straight dope with no pedal-pushing augmentation. You might even find yourself asking, "Where's this bass Jerry mentioned?"
And, Shin'ichi Isohata is simply one of the most versatile experimental guitarists out there. You'll not look at an acoustic guitar with the same eyes of quaintness you once did.
As well, I'll be adding my sounds to the various mixes, so if you can make it out, it will be great to see you.
FUKUGAN GALLERY is a very cool little art spot just down the street from the America Mura BANCO, four floors up a quirky stairway. Check their website, map and look for their big steel grasshopper out front.

Dual Duos: May 30th, Elixir
A Double Fix of Improvisational What-The-Fuckness
Rick Tuazon & Garry Lindon
Jerry Gordon & Mikio Ebihara
Jerry Gordon & Mikio Ebihara
Anatomy of a Duo
"Small enough that a listener never loses track of the distinct sounds erupting from the individual players, a DUO is the most exposed and risk-laden of musical units. (A soloist doesn't have to read someone else's mind.) But, due to its stripped-down and intimate nature, a DUO can move, turn quick and rocket off in new directions with the greatest flexibility. When a it flies, it soars. When it crashes, it burns."
-- I. Manuel Tzara
On Saturday May 30th, come out to Elixir and hear the pairings of [Rick Tuazon & Garry Lindon] and [Jerry Gordon & Mikio Ebihara] weave their improvised sounds in ways that may delight your better angels, reach down your throat to break the mirror in your heart or push the limits of your patience.
You'll know what it is when you hear it.
The event starts at 8:30PM and the plan is for each duo to play one set, followed by a third set of 2 + 2 = 4 that will finish the evening.
