Electric Kitchen
2019-06-21 20:00 - 22:30 | MAGMA, 11 Pleasant St., Gloucester, MA, 01930, United States
electric.kitchen is an electronic music project focusing on timbre and rhythm. Most works are conceived for live improvisational performance, aiming to take the audience on a journey rather than stick to a genre.
Project leader Mark Lentczner works with a wide range of electronics from analog synths, to digital samplers, controllers, and computers with his own software. Co-founder Paul Buser will return to the project for the Summer 2019 tour bringing his fusion of harmonic and timbral ideas on keyboard.
Collaboration and improvisation is a large part of the project’s work. Musicians with drones, keyboards, processed vocals, bass robots, and Tesla coils have all been part of prior works.
$10 at the door. Doors open 7:30pm
For their performance at MAGMA, Mark and Paul will be joined by dancers Paul Ctania, Jillian Olivera, Sarah Slifer Swift, and laura Tanguay improvising to their set. There will be a post-performance hangout for dancing and mingling, with DJ Salomon. B.Y.O.B.

Primal Roots - Stories
2019-06-07 20:00 - 22:30 | MAGMA, 11 Pleasant St., Gloucester, MA, 01930, United States
We are the stories we create – and this is something that differentiates us from other creatures – our ability to tell stories.
Humans with our powers of memory and imagination are very good at this. Our Tribes make narratives and histories – and with these agreements we create societies. Our stories are powerful beyond measure.
This Primal Roots is about stories. Journey with us as we witness, create and begin to think about our own and our communities stories.
Primal Roots is a dance – but so much more…
As part of the festivities, there will be a transformation station stocked with props and attire to support your changing story. You are encouraged to bring things to add or for your own personal use.
We are going to have some special performances and offerings during the course of the night. There will be live and recorded music, voice and vocal offerings, guided dance journeys and more.
