Aug 18th

Posted by Sjaak in 2010

Signals Under Tests have  been added to the line up of the Antwerp Live Looping festival 2010. Signals Under Tests was conceived in late 2008 by Ricky Graham and John King as an opportunity to explore the aesthetics of sonority. The duo combine their performance and programming talents to present a unique approach to live contemporary guitar music. The pair attended STEIM in April 2009 in pursuit of exploring the utilisation of new technologies in their performance and composition. They have released a series of live recordings on Manchester based electronica net label, Hippocamp. Ricky and John perform regularly in the UK, recently supporting German electronica legend, Ulrich Schnuass at Celtronic Festival in 2009. The duo are currently working on a series of recordings due for release in late 2009.
