Bitches Re-Brewed at the OutToSee Festival 2016
THIRD EYE ELECTRIC BAND plays the music of Miles Davis / Fourth Brew
Friday, April 15, 8pm
192 Front St, New York (South Street Seaport District)
Unsettling, frantic and anti-sentimental, Hans Tammen’s THIRD EYE ELECTRIC BAND – for whom machine oil is mother’s milk – fuse relentless polyrhythmic machinations with ethereal yet roughly sewn soundscapes, revisiting Miles Davis’ music from his Bitches Brew period. Dark, sometimes brooding ensemble passages mix and mingle with tightly woven drum-loops, and extended solo cadenzas build up to a mighty hymn to machine work, music of a metallic nightmare.
