This rambunctious Sunday night, Live Beijing Music and Temple Bar will host Bangalore award winning bassist, film composer and electronic artist Sandeep Madhavan aka The Burning Deck.

With influences that span everything from 70s prog-rock and jazz fusion to the Bristol sound of the 90s, while assimilating elements of hip hop, dubstep and drum n bass, he creates a sound is always going to be out-of-the-box. He has collaborated with a whole host of Indian and international artists like Jeet Thayil (Still Dirty), Matteo Fraboni, DJ Grissino, Kuru Circus and Orchestra, and produced for international artists like Heems (Das Racist/Swet Shop Boys) and homegrown heroes like Smokey the Ghost and Ragged Skull.

The Burning Deck will join one of Beijing’s most mischievous, earth-shaking, righteous, and spiritually deviant acts - DFA1989 - the infamous doom drone collective, ‘with a constantly shifting line up of musicians with a diverse repertoire of instruments and talents’, who concoct doomy noise symphonies of the highest order. Dank ass, epic audio-sensory dreamscapes that manage to entice and engulf the senses while remaining freakishly fun particularly for those who enjoy staring into the abyss. They somehow always find a melodic arc that gives the looping drones and immersing layers and the devastating atmosphere an surprising emotional heft. These hooded mystics are indeed onto something.

Opening for the evening will be Bye Bye Fish, the avant-garde folk project formed by the leading duo behind the beloved punk outfit SUBS. Named after one of acclaimed British sci-fi author Douglas Adam’s finest lines of literature (you know it) and always shrouded in masks, they make their return after of years in hibernation, looking to bewitch audiences with their hypnotic, enchanting, and sometimes malevolence songs that feel like they’ve emerged from a dark fairy tale - or better yet, deep space where their souls will burn for eternity.

Shining Soundscape and Live Beijing Music join forces for an immersive, musically stimulating and visually enticing evening of audio-visual improvisation/feedback that find three artists working with visuals to varying degrees.

Musicians: The Burning Deck (India), thruoutin, gogoj

Artists: Nan Guazi, Dann Gaymer

Ticket: 50 RMB

For the occasion, we’ve invited the Bangalore award winning bassist, film composer and electronic artist Sandeep Madhavan aka The Burning Deck. With influences that span everything from 70s prog-rock and jazz fusion to the Bristol sound of the 90s, while assimilating elements of hip hop, dubstep and drum n bass, he creates a sound is always going to be out-of-the-box. He has collaborated with a whole host of Indian and international artists like Jeet Thayil (Still Dirty), Matteo Fraboni, DJ Grissino, Kuru Circus and Orchestra, and produced for international artists like Heems (Das Racist/Swet Shop Boys) and homegrown heroes like Smokey the Ghost and Ragged Skull. For tonight, he’ll be joined by local jazz guitarist Zhang Ding as well as artist, illustrator, designer, and experimental musician Nan Guazi whose work has made one of her generation's more recognizable artists. With a more freely flow avenue between the music and the visuals, we will also be encouraging the audience to become involved, taking turns illustrating and creating based on their reactions to the music. Joining The Burning Deck will be two locally based artists - thruoutin and gogoj, whose intricate productions and forays into experimental music and sound design has made their live shows a unique experience each and every time. Shengjie aka gogoj is an experimental musician and visual artist from Beijing. Her musical performances can be quite varied and seems to change for each show - ranging from her playing cello to playing electronic music with her own visuals accompanying it. Though her visuals are static and unchanging, her music will be in constant flux - and the two will converge this evening. The American born electronic producer and multi-instrumentalist, thruoutin, whose work revolves around the combination of different genres with a focus on organic and digital sounds, sometimes with his Mengqi-enhanced pipa, tape manipulation, and field recordings - he'll be joined by fellow Shining Soundcaper Dann Gaymer.
