We’re about to hit April this week. That typically means the madness of spring fever in all its forms takes hold of Pittsburgh. Tons of shows, people and nice (enough) weather.
Looking forward to it.

“Al Margolis has been an activist in the 1980s American cassette underground through his cassette label Sound of Pig Music; was co-founder of experimental music label Pogus Productions, which he continues to run. Active under the name If, Bwana since 1984, making music that has swung between fairly spontaneous studio constructions and more process-oriented composition. He has recorded and/or performed with Pauline Oliveros, Ione, Joan Osborne, Monique Buzzarté, Katherine Liberovskaya, Adam Bohman, Ellen Christi, Fred Lonberg-Holm, Jane Scarpantoni, Ulrich Krieger, David First, and Dave Prescott, among others.” -Pogus

“Tom Hamilton has been composing and performing for over 40 years, and his work with electronic music originated in the late-60s era of analog synthesis. He explores the interaction of many simultaneous layers of activity, prompting the use of ‘present-time listening’ on the part of both performer and listener.” -WMUA
