AMBER (from Alzo Boszormenyi and the Acid Achievers) on Etherwave

The three thereminists will be waving their six hands around in the air of the Takoma Park Planetarium creating a sound which you will unlikely be able to hear anywhere or anytime else.

THIS IS A FREE SHOW - Saturday, May 8, 1999 at 8 pm.

Call it electronic and experimental and avant garde - BUT we will do a couple of songs as well. The two Etherwaves will produce a third tone due to interference from their circuits, sort of like that throat singing, which will dance over Rupert’s and Amber’s individual tones - Art’s theremin uses a different technique which is not affected by other theremins. The third tone will introduce high frequency harmonics to the music - it is hardly predictable BUT I LIKED IT! — rupert
