Baltimore-born @marloDeWawa works within the realm of sound performance, visual distraction and film. Together with Edinburgh-based Euan Currie, their live improvisation at #Tectonics Glasgow 2024 combined voices, electronics and field recordings.
In their own words, "expect an exploration of the miniscule properties of sound blown to senseless proportions, a sonic palette of unknown origins bonded in wordless dialogue across cluttered tables."

Multi-award-winning composer, turntablist, and performer @MariamRezaei, teams up with composer @MShlom. They describe ‘6 scenes for turntables and orchestra’ as a divine blend of their passions, with some allusions to opera and concerti traditions.

🎤 A visceral and captivating performance by @ElaineMitchener of ‘Sometimes’. This electronic work for tape and tenor by American composer Olly Wilson is a moving interpretation of the spiritual ‘Sometimes I Feel Like a Motherless Child’.
