Serial Space

Serial Space presents this one off lineup of songs and sounds from berlin, and duos from Sydney.

Golden Diskó Ship

Golden Diskó Ship aka Theresa Stroetges started playing songs live to her laptop since the moment she first arrived in berlin in 2007 and at the same time commenced 3 years of touring, hand made CDs, and music video production to accompany the live shows. The 27 year old sound sculptress has quickly become renowned for her imaginative blend of fragile balladry, novel use of found objects, crunchy distortion, quirky visuals and squealing bits that suggest horrific drum machine abuse. Her uniquely chaotic and original music with its fragile layers of magnificently swirling sounds has fast made Golden Diskó Ship a favourite of the Berlin underground-indie scene.

Jasmine Guffond

Firmly rooted in experimental electronics with an equal dedication to song, composition and free improvised music, as Jasmina Maschina she began recording songs in her Berlin homes producing her acclaimed debut solo album, The Demolition Series, in 2008, for the German label Staubgold. Followed by extensive touring throughout Europe, China and Australia. In 2010, Jasmina Maschina released a split LP/CD, City Splits : #1 Berlin with golden diskó ship on Gudrun Gut’s label Monika Enterprise and in 2011 her second full length album, Alphabet Dream Noise. Jasmine will be doing a solo electronics set.

Four Door

Four Door is the new project of Jonathan Hochman and Matthew Hopkins, members of Holy Balm and Naked on the Vague respectively. They will perform a moody synthesizer sax piece, and a techno work related to medicine and government agencies. Formerly performing as Hochman & Hopkins, Four Door will bring their new sounds to Serial Space for the first time.

Thomas William & Scissor Lock

For several years, Sydney wunderkind Marcus Whale has been experimenting with a combination of manipulated voice, feedback and laptop processing under his Scissor Lock pseudonym, as well his much-lauded Collarbones project with Travis Cook (aka Cyst Impaled) and his debauched faux R&B boy band Black Vanilla (formed with Guerre and Marseilles). Thomas William’s blend of shifting synths, broken percussion and unstable tunings has so far featured on three full-length releases, two as Cleptoclectics, and a third most recently on Melbourne’s ‘This Thing’ imprint. The duo have recently released an album through the local NWA new editions label.
