Set One:

Luke Polipnick, Guitar + Laptop

Minneapolis debut of Polipnick’s piece; a combination of delicate, processed classical guitar textures and glitchy, pounding drill’n’bass. A very dynamic piece, it is alternately dark and bright, cold and warm, fragile and violent. It is fairly “classical” in design, in terms of the flow of events and contrasts. Luke will be improvising and playing some pre-conceived material against the computer track.

Set Two:

Luke Polipnick, Guitar;Erik Fratzke, Bass; Tim Glenn, Drums
