The Other Side of Life is proud to present:

WIRES.UNDER.TENSION (The Bronx, NY; on Western Vinyl)
VISITING NURSE (Louisville, KY)

Sunday, October 20th
at THE NEW VINTAGE
2126 S. Preston
8 PM, $5, 21-and-over!

WIRES.UNDER.TENSION is a duo based in The South Bronx. Combining homegrown audio sampling instruments with ferocious beats and adventurous orchestration, WUT‘s angular gymnastics reflect the raw imagery of their home turf. Multi-instrumentalist Christopher Tignor switches dexterously between violin and the rest of the arsenal while Theo Metz extracts brutal truths from the kit. Together WUT is rethinking what instrumental music can be about when musicianship and restless experimentation rule the scene.

Listen to “The Hustle” by WIRES.UNDER.TENSION‘s Christopher Tignor here: https://soundcloud.com/western_vinyl/christopher-tignor-the-hustle.

Comprised of electronic drums, keyboards, bass, and effected guitar, VISITING NURSE features long time collaborators Jon Hill, Mike Seymour, and Syd Bishop creating music that seems to somehow straddle the gap between the organic and inorganic, a cyborg pastiche of jazz influenced composition, and rigid structures. For fans of Boards of Canada, Clams Casino, and Biosphere.

UPDATE, 10/15:

Due to events beyond our control, we regret to inform you that the WIRES.UNDER.TENSION and VISITING NURSE show scheduled for this Sunday, October 20th at The New Vintage has, sadly, been cancelled.

No word as of yet on a make-up date, but we promise you’ll be the first to know.
