Surface Tension.002 with Powell and Beau Wanzer

  • POWELL (Diagonal, Liberation Technologies, Jealous God) Oscar Powell makes music that sounds ill right down to its splintered bones. His releases posses something of no wave’s artful, obnoxious sonic provocation beneath the economical technoid thrust. The flinty, off-beat percussion, the notable lack of reverb, his sudden recourse into piercing frequencies, all have the effect of creating a strain of techno that feels as if it’s clenching in on itself, a heaving, feverish clump of muscle and sinew. Body music indeed. His own DJ sets have seen the one-time junglist attempt to redraw the rules of what’s acceptable for an—ostensibly—techno DJ to play. BEAU WANZER (Nation, Russian Torrent Versions, L.I.E.S) Beau Wanzer and his hardware constructions have been affiliated with Traxx and his Nation imprint, recent collaborations as Streetwalker with White Car’s Elon Katz, and as one half of the Civil Duty project with Shawn O’Sullivan where he has explored Wave/EBM and techno with a distinct touch. with SURFACE TENSION DJs Visuals SUBSET At MERCER 255 Rhode Island Street San Francisco, CA Advance Tickets: http://tinyurl.com/me8axou
