Unconventional spaces like art galleries or retail shops can provide a fun shakeup of the live music experience, even if it’s just to bring people out of murky bars and into a new environment.
Custom men’s clothing store Richter Goods is hosting just such an event within its walls on Saturday, August 3, when it will play host to New York post-industrial artist Cube.
Cube entrances audiences with a sparse sound focused primarily on repetitive electronic drum hits that echo and vibrate. It’s a minimal approach that forces listeners to pay attention to the textures being created and the ethereal accents embellishing each track.
Avant-garde/freakfolk/electronic artist Svetlana Zwetkof, punk-industrial producer NICODXMVS and ambient/soundscape artist Mt. Borracho will round out the bill, offering a night far off the beaten sonic path.
The organizers encourage attendees to donate what they think is fair for admission — keeping in mind, of course, that Cube is a touring act. The show starts at 7 p.m. with DJ Shitscud spinning “bewildering sounds and cosmic mash-ups” between the live acts, according to a news release.
