JEFFREY KOEPPER with JASON SLOAN
April 19 On Saturday, April 19, at 8:00 pm, The Gatherings Concert Series will present Jeffrey Koepper and Jason Sloan. Renowned for his technical abilities and restorative powers, Jeffrey Koepper is distinguished for his work in reviving and maintaining vintage electronic music equipment. With Kelvin Russell, Jeffrey was known as half of Pure Gamma, a duo that brought together the old-school ambience of the '70s with the techno/chillout culture of the '90s. In 2003, Koepper finally popped his head up from behind his vast museum's worth of gear and presented the world with a long-awaited studio album. Etherea demonstrated a mastery beyond the technical side of his craft. The music alternates between analogue bubbles and digital ice, and bright, smooth, spacious tonal landscapes. The CD Momentium followed in 2006 and references this genre's pulsing motorlike sequencer motion and incrementally expansive growth. His forthcoming CD Sequentaria will be released in Spring of 2008. By creating the music of tomorrow with the technology of yesterday, "Analogue Jeff" the gearhead transforms into Jeffrey Koepper the artist. Applying his vast technical knowledge of music making equipment towards programming evocative ethereal sounds and strong rhythmic designs, Koepper produces music of impressive depth and rare intelligence. He made his solo concert debut on Saturday 19 May 2007 in Philadelphia opening for Steve Roach at The Gatherings Concert Series. Jason Sloan is a visual performance/sound/installation artist working out of Baltimore, MD. His aural work is created with computers, synths, guitar and environmental sounds extracted from his surroundings and aligns with the spiritual. He considers his music auditory stimulation, representing a transcendance of the physical world. This mode of musical expression leaves the listener to the workings of their own imagination to give meaning to the work. Jason Sloan makes his Philadelphia public performance debut at The Gatherings Concert Series on Saturday 19 April 2008. |
