Midwest FRESH! 3/26 - Ectomorph + Erika

  • I think this one really speaks for itself. Brendan and Erika will be doing a live PA as Ectomorph and then Erika will melt your faces off with a DJ set. Each of them has rocked our dancefloor before, but this will be an entirely different beast. If you don't know who we're talking about, you betta ask somebody (or read their bios below). Ectomorph: Ectomorph occupy an unique and strange place within Detroit Techno history. Founded in 1994 as a reaction to DBX, Basic Channel, Rob Hood, Sähkö and Drexciya, they released their first singles in 1995 as an attempt to make Detroit music for Detroit itself, not exclusively for export. The mystique of their early singles led to mythic status and a strong underground cult following, which they have continued to develop through releases on their own Interdimensional Transmissions label as well as remixes on many high profile labels and projects like "Shari Vari" and the Dirtbombs. Their live shows are legendary for their ability to fluidly incorporate improvisational techniques into their synthesized music (and for the sheer amount of analog equipment that they bring). BMG has worked in audio engineering and production ranging from mastering the first Ghostly projects to producing Wolf Eyes' Sub Pop albums while Erika runs erika.net, one of the internet's first freeform radio stations. Erika: Erika dreams on the cellular level, or perhaps of transdimensional intelligences moving through strange patterns on celestial objects, working towards a mysterious goal. Her connection to the dreamworld becomes concrete in her approach to music, simultaneously so solid and yet so ethereal. Erika still finds time to accomplish many things in her waking hours, such as being a member of Ectomorph, co-conspirator of Detroit's Interdimensional Transmissions record label, DJing with vinyl, making music with her pet machines, and running erika.net - a freeform streaming radio station. Erika.net celebrates its 14th year this year, being one of the very first iTunes presets. From 1993 through 1999, Erika was very involved in WCBN in Ann Arbor, as a freeform and jazz DJ, and Program Director. The daughter of a famed scientist and already running a well known BBS from her bedroom by the time she was 13, Erika is no stranger to expressing her ideas through technology. In 1997 she was handed a TR-606 and asked to join Ectomorph, and has since become an electronic musician of the highest order, focusing on analog synthesis, with live hardware sequencing that allows transformation over time and a deep depth of tone. We are also super stoked to welcome our brother from Chicago, Pat Boseman, to warm things up with Jed. Pat is a key member of NBFC and the Planet Chicago night at Smartbar. Welcome to the warehouse Pat! Support: Pat Boseman b2b Jed James Tony Fairchild As Always: All Night BYOB (cans only please!) 21+ $10
