Michelle Lou & Stefan Maier
Live at UCSD


Lou's constantly shifting cloud of spectral densities and angular textures are juxtaposed by Maier's throbbing drones and pointillistic interjections. Unremitting and inexorable, constantly transforming sound passes through multiple states, reaching thresholds of intensity only to change phase yet again. In this live recording, Lou and Maier explore the material excess of sound, endlessly proliferating, in a state of unruly becoming.

Recorded live on February 10, 2023 in the Experimental Theatre at the Conrad Prebys Music Center, University of California, San Diego
