Holden Linton Presents "AN ALTERNATIVE GUIDE TO PATHWAYS" Showcase

CONTEMPLATION -> REVELATION -> REALIZATION -> TRANSFORMATION

"AN ALTERNATIVE GUIDE TO PATHWAYS" is a curated showcase event focused on bringing about inner truth, liberation, and pathways forward through music. A means of breaking old patterns, creating new formulas, and setting sights on new horizons. A mirror of our own potential, a reflection of NOW. Dedicated to the unlimited, all abiding love, creativity, and spirit that exists in all of us, this event is found on the basis that it doesn't matter what music it is or where it comes from, but that it conveys INNER TRUTH and sets a pathway forward for the greater good. A curation that looks to bring together unique voices that can't be found elsewhere, but holds something for everyone. Expect some dance, auditory adventures into the unknown, and sounds that hit deep into our feelings and soul. If you're looking for new exciting music that looks to go beyond definition and category, then this is for you! And if you don't know, then GET to know!

Starting the night will be the contemplative sounds of Trix Arctor, whose minimal hypnotic rhythms, cinematic landscapes, built from electronics and field recordings, read like what initially looks to be a fogged mirror, only to dissipate and reveal the depth of the world that lives inside. It's one foot in feeling and one foot in sound. An internal colloquium of questions that only your body can answer to. When there is darkness, there eventually comes light...

Following is the revelatory music of Eva N (Formerly Mace), whose unique blend of homemade guitar-work and sample-based experiments feels like all at once a bed of memories, a greyhound bus ride home, twists and turns of rotting images, and scrapped hugs. Dynamic music that looks to be held and to take hold, rendering itself soft and speaks loudly when least expected...

After is the realized sounds of Holden Linton, a spiritual awakening caught mid-air into recording. The music feels like a 3-Dimensional Wassily Kandinsky painting, made by a child and covered in metal pipes and wires, built next to the most divine lakes and grass plains. It's rhythmic, bright, clangy, sometimes catchy, and maybe even dancy. It moves through different biomes and takes the listener through an adventurous journey beyond mind and body, questioning the relationship between the mechanical and spiritual...

Finishing the night is the transformative sounds of Gorpopap, whose music feels like a shapeshifting dodecahedron on the dancefloor, taking new forms with newly appearing lines and textures that eyes and ears couldn't catch on first glance. It looks to shake you around in a Plinko machine and bounce you around in a mind-trampoline. At its core, the music is ever-changing, it's celebratory, and just DANG FUN. Dance music that, among all the transitory, stays eternal.

Hope to see ya there, come dance, explore, and shine your brightest light!
