Electronic show featuring RVA debut for Mark Cetilia, of Mem1 and Redux. With Stephen Vitiello & Chrystine Rayburn, Gardener & Syncretist.
Come out for an evening of electronic music that will feature both academic and club approaches to sound. This show features the Richmond debut for Mark Cetilia of Mem1, an interdisciplinary artist whose practice exists at the nexus of analog and digital technologies. With performance systems utilizing custom hardware and software, Mark’s work is an exercise in carefully controlled chaos.

Stephen Vitiello – who collaborated with Mark on “Age of Insects” – will be performing accompanied by Chrystine Rayburn. Their duets explore textural atmospheric guitar and space, while creating a resonance between electronic and acoustic instruments with Chrystine’s rich baritone clarinet work.
Gardener is the long-running synth-psych project from Dash Lewis. Using synthesizers, samplers, an array of effects pedals, and his voice, Lewis builds massive, glacial walls of sound that take influence from The Beach Boys, Harmonia, Theo Parrish, Cluster, El-P, and the Bomb Squad.
Syncretist is a solo electronic project from Robert Salsbury, co-curator of the Sunday Soundtracks concert series. Syncretist explores melody and texture using club idioms in a format that mixes song structure with a seamless dj style presentation, coming from a strong 90s IDM sensibility.
