Elevator.8/ Benoit Pioulard // Madeleine Cocolas // Ethernet

Elevator presents its February installment with a pleasing sound and a departure from abstraction. As one half of the ethereal ambient duo Orcas and via his solo project Benoît Pioulard, Thomas Meluch creates ghostly poems and myopic melodies. His fifth album, Sonnet, will emerge via kranky on March 30th. http://pioulard.com/ https://soundcloud.com/pioulard Madeleine Cocolas runs the gamut from Kate Bush-esque piano ballads to sonic environments built from field recordings. In July 2014, she completed a year-long run of writing a song a week - a project she documented at http://madeleinecocolas.blogspot.com/. http://www.madeleinecocolas.com/ https://soundcloud.com/madeleine-cocolas With releases on kranky, Tamarack Music, and Waveguide Audio, Tim Gray, aka Portland electronic producer Ethernet, evokes the damp peacefulness of the Northwest landscape. He also wrote his MFA thesis on sound's capacity for healing. https://soundcloud.com/ethernetmusic http://ethernetmusic.bandcamp.com/ $8 advance, $10 at the door All Ages
