9pm - Duo From the Garden of Spring

Tom Djll (piano & trumpet) appears with Special Supersonic Guest From Out Of Town

He-who-must-not-be-named is a barnstorming giant of free improvisation, known for decades to aficionados of the art; and yet, still evolving, growing, and ultimately mysterious. This musician and Tom Djll have enjoyed a musical relationship since 1988, but have not appeared as a duo since 2005.

Addleds explores timbral and textural extremes of distended instrumental technique via improvisation and open-ended compositional strategies. Their music tends towards a brutalist minimalism as informed by the noise underground as by recent developments in the field of free improvisation. Individually, the members have performed with other groups and regular collaborators across the gamut of new music both local (Basshaters, Ettrick, Ghost in the House, Jacob Lindsay, Pink Mountain, Jon Raskin, Gino Robair, Aram Shelton, Shudder, sfSound) and elsewhere (Michel Doneda, EKG, Boris Hauf, Giuseppe Ielasi, Lozenge, Polwechsel, Jack Wright, C Spencer Yeh). Together, they began developing their collective sound in 2010.
