Faulty Electronic presents... Lucas Abela

Lucas Abela

Lucas ‘Granpa’ Abela (fka Justice Yeldham) has been performing their signature instrument; amplified shards of glass for over twenty years now. Their singular practice spawned from the noise music underground, where the glass evolved from a means to create ecstatic free-noise cacophonies into an oddly versatile instrument producing some form of organic electronica. Abela plays the glass by vibrating their lips against the pane to create both audio and the envelopes controlling parameters within a modular patch that uses no traditional synthesis techniques, all sounds and modulations derived from glass itself. For the Grey Nomad tour Abela will be conducting a question-and-answer session after the show, explaining their patch and similar techniques used in their recent collaborative album with Zach Hill (Death Grips) ‘bag-of-max-bag-of-cass’ on Warp records.

FUKNOvsNIMBY

Loose interpretations of acid techno, improvised live using dodgy samplers, home made drum machines, circuit bent toys and no input mixer. Like your last bush doof on bad acid.

Marlené Claudine Radice 

Marlené Claudine Radice is an Australian composer who specialises in notated electroacoustic composition by exploring how art and sound compliment one another. Taking recorded sounds away from their original sources, they process and manipulate these into new musical structures. Raw industrial noises, looped voices and hypnotic soundscapes are layered to create a nuanced and original sound.
