Free Klenengan - Gamelan Kusuma Laras June 29th

GKL is presenting another Klenengan in 2 weeks. Klenengan is an informal performance or jam session of Indonesian Gamelan, typically very long, and attendees are welcome to come and go throughout the night.

Our klenengan will be a (relatively) short 6 hours with a 45 minute dinner break for the performers during which audience members will be invited to learn how to play a short phrase on the instruments.

All ages are welcome to the performance and the hands-on session.

There are usually Indonesian snacks on offer from the consulate, though the consulate’s kitchen is being renovated so I’m not sure what that will look like this time around.

SATURDAY, JUNE 29 2019 from 5 - 11 PM
(break from 7:30 pm to 8:15 pm)
The Consulate General of the Republic of Indonesia
5 East 68th Street, New York City

Event announcement

Here’s an excerpt of one of the pieces we’ll be playing from a previous concert to give you a sense of the vibe (video quality is bad, but the audio good):

Hi !

A while back I made a post about a modular hang at the studio I work at in Manhattan. We’ve been super busy and haven’t done many, but we are doing one this Wednesday (6/19) from 7p-10p. If you would like to attend, please dm me.

I had made a google email chain for this, but I got a new computer in between time and can’t remember my password -_- … So I’ll make a new one after this event.

I hope that I’m not spamming here, but…

I’ll be playing The Cutting Room with Erin Hill this Wednesday, June 19th. Doors at 6:30, and we go on an 7:30. No modular, but I’m using the pedal steel as a sound source through a bunch of effects, so some sonic adventures. It will be a fun evening… the band features Harp, Pedal Steel, Drums, Violin, Cello, and Vox, both front and background. It is one of the rare club shows that we do in NYC. I hope to see you there!

New York Modular Society is doing a Halloween Show. Would love to see you come out.

I’m participating in Gowanus open studios on October 19th and 20th this year, so feel free to come by, grab a beer and chill on the couch in my studio. It’s pretty open ended, so no formal schedule to it – feel free to just swing by and say hi. (I do a lot of generative a/v and sound work and have been hacking on my Norns a lot, and I’m always happy to nerd out!)

GoS is a pretty big event so its totally worth grabbing a map and wandering around the neighborhood one afternoon, especially if you’re on that side of Brooklyn.

Noon to 6pm on 10/19 and 10/20
56 2nd Ave.
Brooklyn, NY 11215
(A couple blocks from the 9th street F/G/R station)
