Mush Tour Fall 2004 | 09/2004 | Urb Magazine presents the Mush Tour Fall 2004 featuring: Her Space Holiday, Daedelus, Neotropic, Octavius, and Thavius Beck. Her Space Holiday (Marc Bianchi) adds live guitar, bass, keyboards, and drums to his mixes for the live setting and his latest release, The Young Machines, was his best received to date. In addition to being one of the strongest selling titles in the Mush catalog, it landed Marc press in Urb Magazine, Mojo and CMJ to mention but a few. Daedelus' live performances are far from conventional. He will be performing tracks from his entire back catalog of releases including Rethinking The Weather, Of Snowdonia, and tracks from his new Mush release, Exquisite Corpse. Joined by her four-piece band, Neotropic (Riz Maslen) will play tracks from her new Mush release, White Rabbits. In addition to handling a number of instruments, Riz produces photographic slides and film as part of her live set, creating a chilling cinematic experience. Her appearances at the Montreux and Coachella festivals mark an already distinguished career. Octavius' Black Curtain Surveillance / Live Sound performance piece uses live guitar, keyboard, vocals and an engaging visual aspect that perfectly delivers the theme of his Mush release, Audio Noir. Combining the digital sound shaping power of computer editing with traditional analog synths, Thavius Beck's music is as moving it is inspiring. His Mush debut, Decomposition will make up the bulk of his live set. Mush Records invites you to a great night of music. The full line-up of dates has been posted on our shows page. |
