New release from Triax

TRIAX - unique live electroacoustic music

Born out of the expanded Endgame "Extremities" project, in a sense, this sideline couples Alto Stratus with the strangely processed hurdy-gurdy of Dave Powell, for a unique new hybrid.

Dave Powell - Alan Freeman - Steve Freeman


TRIAX - UNDERGROUND
Auricle AMCDR 284 66'55"

Document of two performances at The Church Of Sound events held in Nottingham in 2016 and 2017. The first performance here was on a humid July evening with the tiny Rosy Lee's Tea basement full to the brim, featuring sets from Triax, Mooch and Concept Devices. This was a more typical Triax set with Dave Powell on hurdy gurdy and an improvisation roughly modelled on some themes from INTEGRATED CIRCUITS. Writhing and almost industrial on occasions, in roughly three movements that were intended to fit with the projected video. The second performance was on a dank October night with sets by Triax, Meson and Plyci. Here Dave was on flute, and a work that went through many more phases, feeling much brighter than the previous set, and with a vaguely avant-garde classical feel. It was intended to showcase a work on the new PETRIFIED, but it didn't really resemble it at all!

Dave Powell - the Hurdy-Gurdy man

A unique explorer in the use of the hurdy gurdy, aka "vielle-à-roue" and various other instruments. A great sonic explorer of unfolk "Industrial Folk Music" and electronic sound processing, with an original style.
He has expanded his range of instruments on his various solos and collaborations in Tartovisti.
Dave also plays in Triax, Extremities, Etherwheel and at Quadelectronic events.
