An early show featuring live tape loops, sampling, electronics and visuals. Edmonton’s Mark Templeton and Vancouver’s Daniel Majer will both be celebrating the release of their new albums. Mark Templeton: Two Verses (Faitiche) For his debut on Faitiche, he browsed his old hard drives and invited Andrew Pekler to listen through and co-produce a selection of Mark’s unreleased works. The compositions act as a series of snapshots: a look back at a decade of archived sounds, re-envisioned and re-imaged for Faitiche. The album contains nine tracks that follow an AB song structure. Each piece begins with verse A, transitions into verse B, and then ends. Daniel Majer: Time for No Memory (Vaagner) An exercise in contemporary sound collage, Daniel Majer’s new album comprises a direct and liberated examination of fragments from the past and their valence for the shared present moment. A field of inquiry into nostalgia and its strange and, at times, pervasive place in contemporary culture. doors 6:30pm show 7:00pm $15 adv $20 door Information Source: 9910 | eventbrite
