Spike Mason's OXIMETRIC
The oximetric concept incorporates archetypal rhythms that are expanded and compounded by each of the performers in the ensemble at their discretion. The rhythms are to be executed ‘phrasically’ - so that each melodic or rhythmic segment is not strict but flows and breathes as in our natural bodies.
"The object is not the random juxtaposition of hostile pieces of music, but the creation of something entirely natural, despite its divergent pulses and harmonies. The result is not a jumble of sounds but often a strange serenity, with points of convergence. Rather than being unrelentingly busy, the multiple layers tend towards discerning restraint, engendering a blend of beauty and tension."
John Shand - Sydney Morning Herald
Barney Wakeford - organ
Dave Goodman - drums
Spike Mason - saxophone
$30/$15, and BYO food and drink. Doors from 7.30pm, music from 8pm!
