The Improvised Music Company and the Bottlenote Collective link up at DEAF 2008 to provide a night of noise, improv and wilful mischief-making in the form of Lakker, Bang Hazard (featuring Greg Felton, Justin Carroll, Shane Lattimer and Alo Allik)

Vorsprung durch technik, as JJs gets a digital makeover from The Bottlenote Collective, for a night of adventures in twisted jazz, improv and electronica as part of DEAF 2008.  Estonian sound artist Alo Allik, already a veteran of the electro acoustic and multimedia scenes in Amsterdam and New York, opens with a deeply algorhythmic deejay set, followed by the liberating and noisy explorations of   Lakker, aka Dara Smith, one of Ireland's finest electronic artists.   To conclude, a brand new project from the heart of the Irish jazz scene in Bang Hazard, where Justin Carroll, Greg Felton and Shane Latimer collaborate with Allik in forms and improvisations that embrace acoustic instrumentation and   live processing, bridging   the analogue and digital traditions.
