Flights
In An Electronic Sky.

groupings selected from an amazing set of musicians recorded
live at the Quadelectronic events of 2008.
background
Quadelectronic
are a series monthly improvised electronic music concerts
at quad studios in Leicester, UK. The musicians are drawn
at random into different groups. At the end of the evening
there is a big improvisation involving all the attending
players.
Electronic Flights is a collection of the best improvisations
featuring Chris Conway taken from the Quadelectronic events
of 2008.
The recordings capture his distinctive theremin, whistles,
vocals and effects in a wide range of settings - from an
acoustic trio with female vocal and acoustic guitar, and
intriguing duo with a modular synthesizer, an electronic
trio and a quartet and a huge final nonette with all kinds
of sounds bouncing off each other.
