ANDY MOOR SOLO (WITH VISUALS)
Another band member of The Ex in the house today: guitarist/photographer Andy Moor. Moor’s own background is rooted in the post-punk Britain of the 1980s, but over the years he has collaborated with many musicians (Genevieve Murphy, DJ/rupture, Thurston Moore, Christine Abdelnour) from varied backgrounds and disciplines. Like the other band members of the The Ex Andy Moor & his playing is characterized by versatility & openness.
Andy Moor guitar solo with a film of his photography, this project is called; “Intense Sound Signal Operates Without Warning”. Please check film here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4l2zMhkaNeg&t=591s or better still come down .

 

Snare Drum Static is Luka Schuurmans’ drone interpretation of a marching band; a collective snare drum roll stretched to extreme lengths, bringing hidden microrhythms and overtones to the surface.
