pubik
Experimenting with emotive soundscapes.
Tell me about your history? How did you get where you are now?
I have created pubik as an outlet for my more experimental techno meanderings. For more strait forward sounds and bio, please visit me at: www.mp3.com/chris_hale
Have you performed live in front of an audience? Any special memories?
I've just started playing live using a laptop and a Yamaha Rs7000 sampler/synth. I much prefer the confines of my cramped Tokyo apartment to playing live. At least there I'm free of the inevitable annoyance of that one guy who walks up to me mid-track and asks me to play some trance.
Your musical influences
Swans, Zan Lyons, Autechre, early 80's electro: Erasure, Eurythmics, Depeche Mode
What equipment do you use?
Mini Disc recorder (for sounds), the 4 r's: reason, rebirth, recycle and a (yamaha) rs7000. Pc running Wavelab 4.0, Fruityloops and other bits of software picked up here and there...
Anything else?
Feedback from other artists is always welcome! I'm always interested in how bad my music is (and what advice you might have to make it better)
