Cabaret Room: JOSHUA FRIED: Radio Wonderland. With special guest Carol Lipnik, presented by TWEED, 7:00pm

April 24 2022, 7:00 pm-8:30 pm

$20

Joshua Fried spins live FM radio into golden grooves right before your eyes, with his Musical Steering Wheel and Musical Shoes. Plus Joshua will unveil a new project with his special guest, beloved Pangea diva Carol Lipnik. 

A Buick steering wheel and old shoes hit with sticks are the controls for computer processing of live FM radio in RADIO WONDERLAND, from New York experimental composer Joshua Fried. RADIO WONDERLAND turns corporate culture into recombinant funk.  All the sound comes from recognizable live radio.  Joshua builds his grooves, step by step, out of radio, and even UN-winds those grooves back to the original source. When you start dancing, you’ll feel the empowerment of twisting mass media to your own ends. RADIO WONDERLAND has been blowing minds from Milan to Montreal since 2007.  The debut LP SEiZE the MEANS (2017) is available from Danish/Chilean experimental label clang recordings.

Composer, performer, producer and conceptualist, Joshua Fried’s work spans experimental music, DJ culture, and live art.  He has remixed They Might Be Giants, drummed on electric shoes, and put headphones on Downtown NYC’s most mercurial stars. Gigging at Pyramid, Danceteria, 8BC, Dixon Place, La MaMa, Limbo Lounge, CBGB and PS 122 during the 80s East Village Renaissance, Fried signed to Atlantic Records as a dance music artist in ’86. In the ’90s, he was the youngest composer in Schirmer’s American Music in the 20th Century. Fried has performed solo at Lincoln Center, The Kitchen, La MaMa, BAM, Joe’s Pub and le Poisson Rouge (all NYC), in LA, Miami, Tokyo, Berlin, Milan, Paris and across Europe.  His production credits also include Chaka Khan, Ofra Haza, and avant drone-master David First.  Fried’s awards include two New York Foundation for the Arts (NYFA) Fellowships, a National Endowment for the Arts (NEA) Fellowship, and residencies at MacDowell, Yaddo and Bellagio.  Fried’s recordings have been released by free103point9, Trace Label, clang, Tellus and Atlantic Records.

A Pangea favorite, Carol Lipnik is a spellbinding and darkly-humorous singer and songwriter. She has been called an “ethereal vocal phenomenon” by The New York Times, and hailed by The Village Voice as an “alt-cabaret star whose phenomenal four-octave range conveys everything from dark and delusional Alice in Wonderland mushroom fantasies to face-in-the-sidewalk security-state concerns.” She will be appearing in April at Joe’s Pub in Goddess Of Imperfection, the first of two album release shows. The work combines Lipnik’s uncanny ability to channel the magic and mystery of the natural world with her stunning vocals that pierce through the chaos and anxiety of today and invoke a more hopeful future.
