meshmass are going to be playing a gig on the 29th of september in lewes at the westgate chapel, just near what was the west gate of the town wall, near keere street and pipe passage and other old things of historical interest such as ourselves. this performance will be relayed live on the radio (at least on 'radio lewes', which is probably only on the internet) and videoed as well for future reference. it will feature not only meshmass (the duo) and their various computers, tablets, saxophones, loopers and guitar-like objects but also the guest musicians adam bushell (tuned percussion) and james parsons (drumkit). we are looking forward to it. admission is free, and the tickets have been printed by an imbecile who ordered them with the name 'meshmash' on them, so i will have to track them down and incinerate them all - i cannot give out tickets with our name spelt wrong on them after all, it's pathetic. as ever, we will be playing music we have never played before, and three of the participants have never even heard, so almost anything might happen, but probably won't. doors open at 7:30, and you are all very welcome to come. it promises much - adam bushell will be playing the marimba, i hope, although he may bring a vibraphone instead. he is a very accomplished musician and has played with meshmass once before, but never in public. the same experience can be credited to james parsons, a longstanding member of brightonian improvisers 'bolide', and an inveterate participant in all manner of improvising collaborations including 'the bare springs'. we have long sought the opportunity to loosen up the edges of our computer-generated rhythms with human incompetence, and this is it, apparently. apart from that 'julymass 2018' has just escaped from its confinement and spread, virus-like across the universe, reaching as far as canada and even suffolk. it lasts nearly 2 hours and is really a very good month, it thinks. we shall report further at a later stage.
