Hibla.com: Elliott Sharp live at Charlie Wright's London - Tectonics Abstraction Distraction (part)

SUN Oct 19th, 2008 @ 21:30 - Elliot Sharp (New York)

A real innovator, sax strangler and guitar mauler Elliott Sharp has been raising New York avant garde eyebrows since the seventies. Hes collaborated with the grand Pooh-Bah of the downtown scene, John Zorn, and shared an occasional basket of cheesy fries with fellow guitar terrorist Derek Bailey. Sharp also collaborates regularly with visual artists Christian Marclay and Pierre Huyghe. Combining the naked freedom of jazz improvisation and the alien crunch of digital mechanisms, his visionary music draws upon chaos theory and fractals while reinventing a variety of traditional instruments: electric guitars, synthesizers, saxophones and clarinets, leading to his use of computers and samplers to design new sounds and virtual instruments.
