Jeff Carey, Myo, Lord/Bullock Electro-acoustic concert

Jeff Carey is an electronic music composer and performer focussing on real-time multichannel electro-instrumental music.  The new cd 'Impulse' is his electro-instrumental solo debut.  It was recorded direct-to-disc and is testament to the dedication of performing musicians, the excitement of live music, and explores the immediacy of touch in digital instrumentalism:  no tapes, no pre- recording, no backing vocals. 

 

Performing with self written software, joysticks and self-made controllers his music traverses a sonic language that belies is digital origins with subtleties and details like bowed metallic sounds and controlled feedback and with more gestural sound bursts and textures akin to buzz saws and analogue interference.

 


Myo is the solo project of Cory O'Brien (b. 1980), a self taught hacker, computer musician and electro-acoustic improviser. Contact mics on polycarbonate sheets and feedback networks programmed in Pd and Max/MSP are the preferred tools. His music has been described by Vital Weekly as "louder, dirtier, gritty and angular, but still with ingredients of microsound". Other projects and collaborations include Never Work (with Kenneth Yates), Makioki Sisters (with Jeff Surak) and Clouds-Out (with video artist Jesse Hartgraves).  He currently lives and works in Washington, DC.
