WILLIAM BASINSKI

Made Of Stone Productions proudly presents

WILLIAM BASINSKI [USA]

Saturday 27 April 2024 | Gazarte Main Stage

Carving a very particular path over the past 30 years, William Basinski insists on recording mysterious frequencies at the precipitous edges of music’s boundaries, even making it seem simple and effortless. Based in New York City for most of his career, he has used his musical training not to reproduce the classics, but to redefine the essence of sound and test the conscious boundaries of audiences and critics around the world as few others have.

 

Analog technology was and remains his passion, and by intricately weaving melancholic soundscapes and multiple layers of recordings, Basinksi explores the (anyway chaotic) universe of what we call ambient music, giving image to sounds and sound to images. Working for decades with visual artists, museum curators and orchestral musicians, he sets art installations imprinted in music, creating new dimensions.

 

His timeless masterpiece ‘The Disintegration Loops’ has been invested in museum exhibitions and orchestral adaptations around the world and he continues to be creative without compromising on his uncompromising approach, which is clearly reflected in his latest work ‘On Time Out Of Time’ for which he is still touring the world.

 

As part of this latest creative campaign, William Basinski will also visit Athens for a unique performance at the Gazarte Main Stage on Saturday 27 April, at one of those occasions when the boundaries of art and the process of its reception are tested, both for the artist and the audience.

Doors open: 21:00
Starts: 22:00

JOJO MAYER

JOJO MAYER

ME | MACHINE

Wednesday 22 November
GAZARTE MAIN STAGE

 

The legendary JoJo Mayer at Gazarte Main Stage for an unforgettable night !
His performances and recordings have received rave reviews: “…destined for “Drum God” status !”( (Modern Drummer magazine).

 

Innovative Swiss drummer Jojo Mayer’s new project Me/Machine integrates human power with machine power, analog drumming with AI in an improvised duet where machine imitates man and man imitates machine.

Sergé “Jojo” Mayer’s career kick-started in the early 80s when, as an 18-year-old, he got a place in pianist Monty Alexander’s group. He continued with the jazz rock band Screaming Headless Torsos and the fusion band Intergalactic Maiden Ballet. In the early 90s, Mayer moved from Europe to New York City, worked as a sideman for a number of different artists before forming the electronica quartet Nerve, the band where Mayer developed the idea of reverse engineering, playing machine rhythms on an acoustic drum set.

 

 

 

 

Jojo Mayer is known for bringing together jazz, drum’n’bass and jungle, and electronic music has been a central influence in recent decades. Me/Machine is the next chapter in this love affair between man and machine, machine and man.

 

 

This is what the now 60-year-old drummer himself says:
“The initial impulse for ME/MACHINE came during an experimental recording session with Brian Eno shortly before the onset of the pandemic. I got struck by the ramifications generative, algorithmic technologies and AI will have on the future of music and thought: If only I had a year off, I would get down with this.”
Mayer had his year.

KURT ROSENWINKEL TRIO

KURT ROSENWINKEL TRIO

GAZARTE MAIN STAGE
FRIDAY 13 OCTOBER

One of the greatest guitarists of contemporary jazz music, the musician who has redefined the electric guitar by creating his own musical vocabulary, Kurt Rosenwinkel comes to the Gazarte Main Stage on Friday, October 13th.

Kurt Rosenwinkel has been a unique and great creative voice at the forefront of contemporary music for nearly three decades. The American multi-instrumentalist, composer and producer has earned international acclaim for his distinctive style and contributions to improvisational music since first appearing on the New York stage in 1991. His legacy as the preeminent jazz guitar voice of his generation is clearly evident in his eleven albums as a leader, each of which is an inspiration to every musician around the world.
Collaborations with Eric Clapton, Q-tip, Gary Burton, Paul Motian, Joe Henderson, Brad Mehldau and Donald Fagen are but a few highlights from an extremely diverse and extensive catalogue of participation in more than 150 recordings.

In the winter of 2016, Kurt created the independent label Heartcore Records with the intention of signing and promoting a new generation of musicians whose artistic standards match his own. Heartcore also allowed Kurt to showcase his talents in another dimension of music creation, that of record producer.
With an artistic career spanning nearly 25 years, Kurt Rosenwinkel has worked with “luminaries” of the jazz scene, leaving an indelible mark on contemporary improvisational music. He is an artist who belongs to that category of musicians who have gone beyond the limits and possibilities of their instruments, managing to combine the virtuosity of a virtuoso with the genius of a great composer.

 

Friday 13 October a unique, magical musical performance at the Gazarte Main Stage!

JAZZ SABBATH

Made Of Stone Productions proudly presents
JAZZ SABBATH
Friday 22 December
Gazarte – Main Stage

 

It’s never too late for the truth to shine, even after 55 long years.

Jazz Sabbath, the act that changed the map of music in 1968 by releasing one of the most groundbreaking groove jazz debuts in history, was destined to not get the recognition it deserved in time.

The well-known Birmingham usurpers snatched the glory that rightfully belonged to them, reworked their songs in heavy metal forms and history was forever distorted.

 

Without giving up though, the jazz trio of Adam Wakeman (who stayed close to his creation for years as a member of Black Sabbath and Ozzy Osbourne) released 2 albums (2020-2022) with the original music as it should sound and now they are on the road to restore the truth.

As part of their upcoming European tour, the legendary band will visit Athens and the Gazarte where on December 21 and 22 they will perform some of the most famous rock n roll songs in their authentic groovy jazz form.
