Stimulated through technology's potential, giving voice to ancestral knowledge.
    
Debut American performance by the acclaimed New Zealand multimedia act Pitch Black, this will be the only event on the East Coast. Their current world tour has seen them play with The Orb, Mixmaster Morris, and The Dub Club crew in Vienna amongst others.


11:00 Pitch Black - LIVE - Hard to box into a single audio 'genre', Pitch Black is a combination of musical journeys, created by Paddy Free and Michael Hodgson. Their sound is distinctive; ranging from organic ambient beginnings and layered soundscapes to skanking keyboards, cutting acid riffs and thumping rhythmic grooves, with dub being the glue that holds their sound together. They are multimedia addicts. Every gig they play is live, with fully integrated visuals running of Mideo - a program they developed to trigger video in real time. With a sound steeped in dub technology, like King Tubby meets Richie Hawtin, or Rhythm&Sound in Technicolor, Pitch Black's stunning live show fuses bass heavy beats with cutting edge visual manipulations.
