29日はオランダからのゲストを迎えてまたもやエクスペリメンタル/ノイズ/ドローン/即興ってな感じのイベント。俺はPOPSをやっていると公言している割に、昨今のバンコク界隈での評価は実験的だと…実際俺には実験音楽の定義とかよくわからないんだけどね…ならばいっそのこと思い切り好きにやってやるってことで今回はミニマルノイズセットを爆音バージョンでやってみる。POPではないが絶対に面白い。深い音の好きな方は是非是非おいでませ。よろしゅうに。

OTTO SHANE
Inspired by Sonic Youth and artists alike, the 1996-born started to discover more new sounds on his guitar. His free improvisation is the key element to forge his way to making noise.

ARVIND GANGA
Arvind Ganga is a guitar player from Den Haag, the Netherlands. He takes a physical approach to guitar playing, employing objects and extended techniques to explore new sonic possibilities. His music draws from influences as diverse as noise and drones, North Indian ragas, experimental rock, and everyday sounds. With free improvisation he brings these together into an intense, loosely structured, chaotic mesh that is bathing in the rays of a deep red sun. Ethereal noise with a punk-improv attitude. Arvind plays solo, improvises with like-minded musicians, and is active in music/dance improvisation. His music took him to play squats, galleries, clubs and festivals from Poland to Portugal, England to Slovenia, Turkey, Chile and Perú.

ACIDWALL
Harsh Noise Wall from Bangkok, Thailand, The chemical resistance to all traditional form with an extreme non-aesthetic work of art. His static distorted sound spectrum can create the indetermined subtlety within.
