CUT HANDS DJ Set
The Cut Hands project was founded by William Bennett in 2007, heavily inspired by his fascination for Haitian voodoo, deploying Central African percussion in radical new ways, generating an intense sound unrivalled in its physical and emotional intensity. A classically trained musician, in 1980 at age 18 William Bennett became the founding member of the group Whitehouse and the original pioneer of extreme electronic music.

THE SONS OF GOD
The Sons of God (Leif Elggren and Kent Tankred), work in the borderland between performance, installation and music. Sound objects, pre-recorded compositions, physically demanding movements, the voice: all of this constitutes the foundation for an attempt to gain access to those rare moments when daily life merges with the heroic nature of the inner self.

02.06.2014 - WOLF EYES at Urban Spree
www.urbanspree.com
The infamous blistering noise of Wolf Eyes (Nate Young, John Olson, and newest member Jim Baljo) propelled them from being a dank Ann Arbour, Michigan basement sensation to the finest ranks of Sub Pop without ever losing a shred of credibility. From touring with Sonic Youth and Andrew W.K., Wolf Eyes have crossed borders into popularity which few other such confrontational units of their ilk have been able to and kept straight and narrow on their blazing path. Live it’s not uncommon for Wolf Eyes to remix or improvise, and go on sound tangents that will make your jaw drop. Their dark and haunted screams will turn any venue into an echo chamber of archaic rituals. The experimental and nuanced noise will inevitably burn into your synapses. Fans of industrial, experimental electronic and even metal or hardcore will find several touchstones in the bands post-modern take on what even qualifies as music. The overwhelming force of Wolf Eyes will leave you with an incomparable experience that must be seen to to be believed.
