Diverse explorations of contemporary abstract electronic music are

Time Slips By, Bit Shifter, Puzzle, Johnny Square. Ctrl-N is now
available for download at http://www.modsquare.com/music.php.  

Electronic musicians are invited to bring at least 10 demos of their
work to trade with other guests during the night and get in at a reduced

FEATURING PERFORMANCES FROM:
Phylum Sinter - LIVE [Detroit] (subVariant, Nishi, Modsquare, Post
Under)
Yard - LIVE (Merck, Skam, Narita, Toast and Jam)
m50 - DJ (subVariant, Locale, WNUR, Meiotic, illmeasures)
Liz Revision - DJ ({Quantazelle} Modsquare, subVariant)

PHYLUM SINTER
[DETROIT] Expect an uncommon blend of glitched-out beats, custom DSP
fiddling, proper   melodies, and memorable hooks delivered by Phylum
Sinter, AKA Christopher Todd, from   Detroit, MI. He has been exploring
the connection between sound and imagery for the past  five years and
has contributed tracks to subVariant Recordings, Modsquare, Nishi, and
Post   Under. 

YARD
Chris Jones, originally from Portland and now Chicago-based, has
released tracks under Yard on the Merck, Skam, and Narita labels as well
as running his own CDR label, Toast and Jam. With a
destrucitive-dancefloor bend, his music nods to Detroit techno, with
breaks used out of context, cutup vocals shredded through a meat grinder
and cataclysmic basslines. Yard's sound evokes both gritty city life and
abstract organic atmospheres, creating the perfect environment for
shaking your ass and thumpin' your head. Expect a set of well-crafted
dance music and shuddering walls of sound.
