Lampo is thrilled to bring Jérôme Noetinger and Erik M. to Chicago for their only U.S. performance this year—an evening of electroacoustic improv with field recordings, microphones, tape recorders, radios, motors, homemade devices and toys.
Jérôme Noetinger (b.1966, Marseille, France) is a member of M.I.M.E.O. and the pioneering multimedia performance group Cellule d’Intervention Metamkine. In addition to his work as a musician, he writes for the magazine “Revue & Corrigee,” directs the label Metamkine and curates the “collection Cinema pour l’oreille,” a series of musique concrète recordings. Noetinger and longtime collaborator Lionel Marchetti made their U.S. debut at Lampo in 2002.
Erik M. (b.1970, Mulhouse, France) first became known in the early 90s as a virtuoso turntablist. He has worked with Voice Crack, Günter Müller, Christian Marclay and Luc Ferrari.
