Tonight: Anklepants

October 7, 2016

The music of enigmatic Australian producer Anklepants is a glitchy, unpredictable blend of electro and techno created by the artist coordinating his movements to trigger his sounds via wearable sensors. His live performances have gained notoriety for their element of controlled chaos which surrounds both the visual and sonic nature of these events. The frenetic music comes together as a result of an unparalleled display of technical and artistic prowess that shakes up the prevailing notion of live dance music performance. Tonight Anklepants will bring his wonky electronic set to Mohawk Place for one of the most unique shows of the year that includes a pair of Buffalo’s best experimental electronic talents in Lesionread and UVB76. Doors open at 8pm. Tickets are available for $10 presale, $12 at the door.

On June 28th at Sugar City, and presented by Squeaky Wheel, Wonk Sesh is proud to present Anklepants. Until I heard from Wonk Sesh curator, Shawn Lewis/Lesionread, I had no idea who/what Anklepants was, so let me let Reecard Farché ( the man behind Anklepants) explain it for himself: “Anklepants…is a one man mechanical faced sound creature from the depths of the the Australian übergründé. Anklepants is a perfect specimen. His eyes nose face and mouth are perfect. Anklepants is a live electronic music machine.” Ok, maybe that didn’t explain enough. Farché  was the set designer for Prometheus (that mask does look a little bit like the Space Jockey helmet), and when performing, uses a Wii-like controller attached to[...]
