Architeuthis Walks on Land

"For centuries they have been the stuff of sailors’ nightmares...dwelling in the depths of the ocean, their eyes the size of dinner plates, their tentacles thicker than a man’s arm...." ------------------------------------------------------------ ---------------------------------- ------------------------------------------------------------ ----------------------------------In Architeuthis Walks on Land Amy Cimini and Katherine Young improvise though the full expressive parameters of the duo form, working with the material and textural ranges of their instruments. Architeuthis spans from a slowly unfolding intimacy to a jagged, kinetic style. Both soloistic and often drone-oriented, the duo draws on their interests in contemporary classical music (which is how they first performed together more than six years ago), free music, and rock. Cimini and Young played together in the piratical folk-pop band The William Young and are part of the trio Civil War (with Adam Sonderberg) and the new music collective Till by Turning. They've worked with Fred Lonberg-Holm, Jessica Pavone, Jason Ajemian, Aram Shelton, Carol Genetti, among others. ------------------------------------------------------------ ---------------------------------- ========================================================== ------------------------------------------------------------ ------------------------------- Architeuthis Walks on Land's debut record is out on the Set Projects label.I edited my profile with Thomas Myspace Editor V4.4 (www.strikefile.com/myspace)
