JOOKLO DUO (http://jooklo.altervista.org/)

Italian free jazz, avant shred, sax & drums unit Jooklo Duo play Toronto for the first time. These sonic face rippers have been blasting out disjointed sax lines squeak & bumble over panic drum patterns for years. Toying with repetition & rigid interplay, their music swings between ecstatic jazz with a taste for the angular and some lost language. Touchingly sparse percussion & solo sax passages break loose into a chaotic cross section of percussive movement & spiritual jazz dabblings.

MANTICORE (https://soundcloud.com/mmmanticore)

Zoe Alexis-Abrams & David Jones touch the outer realms of alien communication with their duo Manticore. Haunting guitar tones shriek & twist as if letting go of some captive spirit. Like an unnatural wind meandering through an abandoned factory. Zoe’s voice hovers above these eerie manifestations, some times joining them in an alien chatter, almost creating a dialogue with the wayward phantoms. As captivating as it is versatile, her vocals occupy an adventurous, almost naive territory, as they stretch out their acrobatic routine in a venomous world.

FAKE HUMANS (http://mechanicalforestsound.blogspot.ca/2014/08/recording-fake-humans.html)

Colin Fisher (Not The Wind, Not The Flag, etc) & Carl Didur (Zacht Automaat) team up for what sounds like some haunting 1970’s film score, to a movie set in space, where all the man characters are pretty much trapped up there & are just waiting to die, but are doing so in a very relaxed & peaceful way. Synthesizer work sounds like millions of computer calculations buzzing at once. An etherial hum that almost mimics the sound of an alien species landing on the human space craft. Bewildered by their lackadaisical manner. Deep sea gurgling from a place where no atmosphere exists. This is music from the next frontier.
