shibui_oto, Human Resources and VOLUME present a late concert featuring Tim
Hecker & M. Geddes Gengras due to an overwhelming response and the
subsequent selling out of immersound_LAX.  Tim Hecker will present a stereo
performance following an opening performance by M. Geddes Gengras. This is
an all ages event.

Tim Hecker is a Canadian-based musician and sound artist, born in
Vancouver. Since 1996, he has produced a range of audio works for Kranky,
Alien8, Mille Plateaux, Room40, Force Inc, Staalplaat, and Fat Cat. His
works have been described as "structured ambient", "tectonic color plates"
and "cathedral electronic music". More to the point, he has focused on
exploring the intersection of noise, dissonance and melody, fostering an
approach to songcraft, which is both physical and emotive. The New York
Times has described his work as "foreboding, abstract pieces in which
static and sub-bass rumbles open up around slow moving notes and chords,
like fissures in the earth waiting to swallow them whole". His Harmony in
Ultraviolet received critical acclaim, including being recognized by
Pitchfork as a top recording of 2006. Radio Amor was also recognized as a
key recording of 2003 by Wire magazine. His work has also included
commissions for contemporary dance, sound-art installations, as well as
various writings. He currently resides in Montreal.

M. Geddes Gengras has spent the last 7 years in the Los Angeles
experimental music scene.  Most recently, he was recognized for his
collaboration with SUN ARAW and roots-reggae legends THE CONGOS (2012's
Icon Give Thank) which received praise from such far-flung publications as
The New York Times, Pitchfork, The Wire (#2 album of 2012), and Artforum.
 He has logged time as a member/producer of many bands such as SUN ARAW,
POCAHAUNTED, L.A. VAMPIRES, ROBEDOOR, and AKRON/FAMILY.   His solo work is
based in modular synthesis and comfortably straddles a variety of forms,
(kosmische, drone, experimental, musique concrète, and techno, to name a
few) while remaining rooted in a deep affinity for the limitations of
analog synthesis and a keen ear for timbral manipulation.  Recently Gengras
released his first solo lp, Test Leads, on Intercoastal Artists/Holy
Mountain, a 12" ep under his PERSONABLE guise for the L.A.-based label Peak
Oil, an LP collection of out-of-print tape works (COLLECTED WORKS Vol. 1 -
on UMOR REX) and toured the US, Canada, and Europe with LAUREL HALO, ITAL,
SUN ARAW, MATTHEWDAVID and AKRON/FAMILY, shared stages with MV&EE, JULIA
HOLTER, STELLAR OM SOURCE, PURE X, JAMES FERRARO and many others, as well
as performing at the Los Angeles Natural History Museum and Museum of
Contemporary Art.
