Thurston/Jaffe live at 2220 Arts & Archives, part 1; Sept 11, 2024, Los Angeles, CA (part 2 below)
Max Jaffe & Tyson Thurston create uncanny structures of dense sonority and elastic rhythm with sui generis application of Feedback Synthesis and Sensory Percussion. Their work stems from deep histories of collaboration in the experimental rock and contemporary composition worlds of Los Angeles, Chicago, and New York.
“The patches are the composition. They tell us what to play.”
Performers:
Max Jaffe - drumset, sensory percussion, effects
Tyson Thurston - feedback synthesis, effects
