A New Hope...

Well, I apparently am the worst at blogging. This blog has changed its focus....

Edmonton Alberta is a dark city, an industrial city. This town is full of noise, and now we are turning up the volume. Tentatively beginning in July, there will be a monthly noise/experimental/ambient show featuring the weird and wonderful talents of our local futurist composers (or anti-composers depending on who you talk to). The basic idea is to have an open mic (or open input more accurately) and also some booked acts. We are not talking about singer/songwriter, jack johnson covers or anything like that. This open mic will be an onslaught of free thought. Noise, Experimental, and Ambient music as well as poetry, spoken word.....even visual artists are welcome. This event will be held monthly at Studio E (above the artery on Jasper Ave) it will be all ages, and is presented by CJSR!!

We are really lucky for this to be happening, especially with the support of both Studio E and CJSR.

so stay attentive young ears, this blog is now going to focus on the noise/experimental scene in Edmonton.
