w/ KUMA & Proqxis
Diositopes:
Diositopes is the feverently evolving project of SQ and Zachary Pitnick. The two-piece began in 2021 and has incorporated elements spanning diverse, even opposing, musical genres. At its core, Diositopes is frequency worship focusing on the somatic experience of sound, with an emphasis on heaviness, noise, and color to explore the diverse ranges of catharsis. Comprising of SQ's simple minimal electronica set up ontop an unearthly vocal performance in counterpart with Pitnick’s noise bass amplification cranked to 11, the eccentric project has made audiences voyage to the strangest corners of the soul.
Diositopes' new project, Snake Recognize Snake, will be performed on this night. Many of these songs will not be played live again, in line with the project's sole focus on genre-bending, demolition, and experimenting that has garnered a cult-like status in Portland..
KUMA:KUMA uses imagery, samples, pedals , synths and various metal objects to generate a chaotic soundscape of textures and sounds.
Layered into this chaos is a multifaceted narrative, a mythos about identity, afrofuturism, ancestry, esoteric/occult science, cultural trauma and the industrialization the planet - This is “The Myth of KUMA: The Metal Dragon”
Proqxis:
Divergent approaches to rhythm and harmonics coupled with counterintuitive methods result in bifurcations enumerative…
'Proqxis' coalesces as an idea (proxy) embodied in biosphere & noosphere type strata of influence. The term was applied temporarily to a collective circa 2002-2004 and was adapted by the individual self-contraction to modes of expression, whether modeling concatenations of second-order cybernetics, or recognizing the ways in which subjective experience, especially when filtered and distributed through synesthesia, can be leveraged to dissolve domain dependency with regard to musical influences, theory, live performance arrangement and composition.
