Basshaters (San Francisco USA) LIVE @ Cantina Mediterraneo

Electro-acoustic improvised noise with (ex-)members of Flying Luttenbachers, Gowns, Usurp Synapse, & Ettrick.

Tony Dryer: double bass, electronics
Jacob Felix Heule: drums, electronics

...Basshaters integrates acoustic free improv and electronic noise. Striving to match the fluidity of their textural acoustic music, electronics expand the timbral and dynamic options to new extremes. The duo seeks directness and intensity in execution.

In addition to Basshaters, Dryer & Heule have released an album on Creative Sources with clarinetist Jacob Lindsay. They have a trio CD with saxophonist Jack Wright, and have performed live with diverse musicians such as Michel Doneda, C Spencer Yeh, Gino Robair, and Damon Smith. Dryer has toured with the Flying Luttenbachers and Usurp Synapse; Heule remains active with his brutal improv duo Ettrick.

BLED BUGS -- new cassette tape and 3" cdr
19 minutes of electroacoustic explorations distilled from a 4-day studio residence at Worm's vintage synth repository in Rotterdam, NL. Recorded in January 2010, the session was the culmination of extensive touring in the US and Europe throughout 2009.
