Live improvisation at Moving East CI jam

Having developed an interest in dance (contact improvisation and butoh), I was asked to play an improvised set at Moving East. Following the workshop there is a 4-hour period where dancers can explore themes from the workshop and their own ideas, often accompanied by live music.

I recorded the second of these live improvisations. I used an electric guitar with effects and loops, along with various homemade percussions, an SM57, and a metal salad bowl with contact microphone attached.

These are edited tracks from the session. Enjoy, and if you feel compelled to dance around your living room please feel free…..
