Party Perfect Label Showcase at PAS Berlin, Night 2

Night 2, April 18th:

Stefan Maier
Stefan Maier is a composer from Vancouver, Canada — the unceded, traditional territories of the xʷməθkwəy̓əm (Musqueam), Skwxwú7mesh (Squamish), and Səl̓ílwətaɬ (Tsleil-Waututh) Nations. His installations, performances, writings, and compositions examine emergent and historical sound technologies as tools for speculation. Highlighting material instability and unruliness, his work explores the flows of sonic matter through sound systems, instruments, software, and bodies, to uncover minor histories, sonic fictions, and alternate modes of listening and authorship.  His work has been presented by Haus der Kulturen der Welt (DE), INA-GRM (FR), Ultima Festival (NO), National Music Centre (CA), Liquid Architecture (AU), Gaudeamus Muziekweek (NL), G(o)ng Tomorrow (DK), and MONOM (DE), among others. Stefan is Assistant Professor of Sound at the School for the Contemporary Art at Simon Fraser University.

Technical Reserve
Technical Reserve is the trio project of Hunter Brown, Dominic Coles, and T.J. Borden. Their singular improvisational language moves freely between discrete rhythmic shards, precision-oriented bombast, and floating, hazy abjection.
