Stressed out? Midweek crisis? You may be experiencing a
leisure deficiency! Look, Leisure Muffin can help. Sit down, have
a hot sake, maybe something to nibble. Muffin will take care of
the rest, gently massaging your ears with his unique blend of
left-tempo meepy floop* and progressive acid-frog.
* Meepy floop is at least 5 decades of electronic music, with the
occasional spot of jazz, world music, hip hop and rock thrown in.

eclectic ecstatic dance music
Donna Summer is a mad genius who mashes up disco, hair
metal, breakbeats, noise, and other fun sounds on his laptop.
His live performances are super high energy (the complete
opposite of every other laptop performer i've ever seen). We had
a great turnout last week with lots of dancing after midnight ...
thanks, and please come back for more!

224 Centre Street, Third Floor 9p-
experimentalintermedia.org
all ages, suggested donation $4.99
Lescalleet's sound world occupies a space between noise,
contemporary composition, and minimal electronics; his tactics
are decidedly primitive while retaining an exacting eye for detail;
in live performance, he uses reel-to-reel tape decks to explore
the textures of low fidelity analog sounds and the natural
phenomena of old tape and obsolete technology. Ankersmit is
decidedly detailed while retaining an exacting eye for the
primitive; he plays saxophone
