Holocene recently announced an experimental show, as is their habit, featuring unmissable ambient electronic musician Drew McDowell—who you either haven't heard of or are fiendishly sweaty about. Best known for either his time with Psychic TV or as a member of Coil during the '90s, McDowell has populated his career with impressive collaborations, working with composers like Caterina Barbieri and Halcyon Veil label-owner Eric Burton, AKA Rabit. He's only playing a handful of shows in the US to support his latest release A Thread, Silvered and Trembling, so this one should be looked upon as a rare treat. Opener {arsonist} is an electronic composer-producer who generally traffics in soundscapes built with software that sound like robot dreams of electric sheep. by Suzette Smith
