ELECTRONICA SUPER SCIENTISTS Club 69. Paisley, Fri 23 Apr
The mad scientist in a lab coat, goggled eyes staring wildly out from behind huge banks of frightening looking technology, is a resonant image in the world of electronica. The Super Scientists - who celebrate two years of sonic exploration this month - take it a stage further. At their Club 69 residency, up to 11 scientists perform simultaneous live experiments in noise, wired up to six decks and whatever instruments they can get their hands on, all dressed in lab coats of course. What comes out is a chaotic mix of wonky electro, micro house and broken beats.
For the birthday celebrations, Dr Air, the mad scientist behind it all, will be joined by an array of crazy chemists including special guests Avionix Recordings and a ‘mystery guitarist’. Describing his own sound as 'grooving-abstract-micro-sampled-techno‘, Derek Aire (Dr Air) hopes to teach audiences that they ‘can enjoy what they don't expect‘.
The audio visual assault is completed by a laboratory of televisions, computers and projection screens spilling out original installations and performance art concoctions. Doctoring the house? More like a full frontal
