Long+Wrong presents 4 Hours of Drone

Call the CCA Box Office on 0141 352 4900

“…there’s always something new going on when you let yourself experience a drone fully. La Monte Young argued that “tuning is a function of time” and that as you tune into the harmonics in a drone, you experience new aspects of it. Your own relationship to that continuous sound changes because second by second you are changing, physically and cognitively. At the same time though, when you relax into the sound, it can be ecstatic…” - Marcus boon, blog post at inpraiseofcopying.wordpress.com, 12 September 10.

Long+Wrong presents four hours of continuous drone music. Six of Scotland’s finest experimental musicians will demonstrate differing approaches to sonic continuity, stasis, and extended texture over four hours. Andreas Jönsson, Alistair Crosbie, Buffalo buffalo buffalo Buffalo buffalo, CK Dexter Haven, Neil Davidson, and Noma will perform separate and overlapping sets that will provide an extended opportunity to meditate on your experience of sound.  

This is the second in a series of four events that Long+Wrong will be presenting at the CCA throughout 2011. Each is intended to show a different aspect of Scotland's under-regarded underground music. They have been designed to be of interest to anyone who is interested in experimental music, no matter how much or how little you know about it. If you're new to experimental music then these events should show you some of the best music being made at the moment by people from Scotland. If you're a bit more familiar with it then these events should allow you to experience it in a way that's new or unusual.

Long+Wrong supports Scotland's experimental, improvised and electronic music communities. On our non-profit website you can find a unique, comprehensive and regularly updated events guide, tracks by Scottish musicians, writings about music and comprehensive listings of artists, labels, promoters and more.
