------------------------------------------------------

Carb’s Bong Orchestra was created to observe the 4/20 holiday in a celebration of bubbles and laughter. Inspired by my experience performing in the Tatsuya Nakatani Gong Orchestra (NGO), I felt compelled to gather an orchestra of my own. Loosely modeled by his conducting styles, this is a semi-freeform PERFORMANCE piece. Thank you, Nakatani!

The 13-person bong orchestra is made up of friends/musicians divided into 4 sections: winds, bongs, bubblers, and percussion, mic’ed through a sound system with additional FX modules. Is this a bastardization? perhaps. Incredible? yes. A joke? no.

Special thank you to all of the performers for your collaboration, without you this would’ve been impossible!

Pure As Fear
by Qlowski

Four new rowdy, impossibly catchy songs from this post-punk group who bridge rough-edged New Zealand-style pop with darker, steelier sounds. Bandcamp New & Notable Oct 31, 2018
