Higher Ground presents FLOW - a night of all local a/v, electronic and experimental music

Check out fringe-dwelling music producers flexing their muscles under Higher Ground's big room roof.

The Supermarket duo will be doing an a/v set, with emerging local act Muscular Teeth SONTAGE also stepping up to the plate. Other acts featured are the jam band New Translations, and post-rock band Trinity Road.

Four unique local acts, one hot winter night of original tunes and visuals!

sounds really good.  Are muscular teeth a similar set up to supermarket?

Yeah, muscular teeth do a/v sets too... they have some stuff online... downtempo, world, glitch, ambient... reminiscent of a Warp/Ninjatune act imo.

I've just heard from Peter (Muscular Teeth) that MT won't be performing at FLOW... instead it will be SONTAGE, his duo (music only, no viz unfortunately). Check 'em out on Myspace...

If we're feelin' it, Supermarket might freestyle VJ through some of the other acts' sets- we'll see.

Thats the spirit!

Line-up confirmed, and flyer art posted (check top of thread) 

I hope this is sold out cause I just realised that I'm not gonna make it.  Hope it all goes well

Thanks Melv... show went well.. Sontage played a dark n' sexy set, very atmospheric... the two bands features were a bit of a mismatch on the lineup,but we'll def. do another show with Sontage.

Had some good feedback, and there were enough heads to make it work for a local-only night (about 60). The Higher Ground main room was set up beautifully for this, with a slick projector and screen in place, stacks of comfy couches and chilled vibe.... $5 pales/$6 heineken went down well too. Will def. be looking to do another show there before the year is through.

Merge Magazine dropped in to take some pics for their social pages, and Global Thunda Radio (web station) were there in support (thanks guys!)

Must get on and make some new tunes next... Em's video samples cracked me up on many occasions... That gets me every time, cause she samples sh!t that I've never seen before the show! We're going to reconfigure our pres. to make it more flexible for future shows too... but more on that later
