Morning Stalker
Morgan McKellar began writing music under the name Morning Stalker in 2005 as a home-recording project. Using heavily-effected instrumentation and crude recording methods to create lo-fi soundscapes of layered guitar loops, synth drones and fractured vocals. Since then Morning Stalker has become three, recruiting fellow Underlapper members Marc Chomicki (drums) and Matt Furnell (samplers) for live performances based around improvisation, texture, and progression.http://www.myspace.com/morningstalker
Cleptoclectics
Cleptoclectics is Tom Smith – channelling sonic detritus, playing various instruments, and extrapolating via granular synthesis to create dense, idiosyncratic music. Warm textures, a distinctive tonal range, and staggered rhythms develop into a subtle form of reverie.

The Ethernet Orchestra Ensemble
Live Internet improvisation session featuring Roger Mills – trumpet, Yavuz Uydu – Turkish Bendir and ex Cranes guitarist Mark Francombe performing live from Oslo. The performance will integrate live streamed guitar textures, trumpet and Bendir based on semi determined tonalities and structure. Roger Mills is currently an MCA student at UTS whose practice focuses on networked collaborations, Internet performance and experimental radio.

Currently completing a Master’s degree in Audio Production at UTS and having just returned from a year abroad in the United State’s San Fran, Genevieve offers an intriguing sound with inflections of jazz and alt-folk. By incorporating experimental looping techniques into her performances she is able to achieve a full band sound as a solo artist.

This new project is in the spirit of the UTS Sound Collective and the Disorientation events from a few years ago. I’m excited and will definitely be there. Congratulations to Emily McDaniel for making it happen!
