This fall I will be rocking the following coordinates: Nublu - Tuesday, Sept 25 *9:00 PM -EARLY SHOW *This is a big deal for me as I have seen some amazing music at Nublu and have always thought I should play there. It seems after a few thousand plaintive emails they saw it my way. If you've been thinking you need to check out exaltron and see what he's up to, NOW WOULD BE THE TIME ;) If I can get a decent crowd for this show, there's the potential to do more gigs at Nublu which could lead to big things. Music Ecology- Thursday, October 2nd I am joining the ever-amazing Moldover on his whirlwind East Coast Tour for this victorious return to Boston!! Music Ecology is a crazy monthly party that features the best in electronic music from New England and elsewhere but I reckon they are NOT READY for the likes of Exaltron and Moldover!! *Wonder Bar 186 Harvard Avenue, Allston "Harvard Avenue" stop on Green Line B 10 PM - 2 AM, 21+, $5* AS220 (Providence)- Saturday, October 27th, 9:00- 11:30 pm *Im-providence (v.2) featuring The Hastings/Knoth Duo, In the Loop, exaltron, and Arvid Tomayko-Peters and Elliot Creager* I am returning to the legendary AS200 in Providence where I played last in 1999 and did my live remixing on a Tascam 246 4-Track tape machine!! This amazing night of technologically enhanced improvisational music features two iconoclastic Providence duos along with yours truly and fellow NYer and OG Warper performer In the Loop . Also will be hanging out at an upcoming Warper party on *Thursday October 20th* , definitely shoot through if you can make at as I'm sure the line up will be amazing as ever.

Somehow I managed to worm my way into what promises to be an unprecedented chapter in DIY electronic music tours! As you can see below, Moldover has put together an action-packed itinerary to showcase both new music and new gadgets, one of which appears to be some kind of unholy melding of midi controller and traditional guitar. Get a glimpse of this sorcery in the tour preview video below, where Moldover sets his controllers to stun and takes aim at the soulless mass-marketing of "press play" electronic music acts. For my part, I will be debuting a new built-in talkbox set up I call the Unicorn Spine that incorporates a spiral of midi-controlled fiber optics that light up the inside of my mouth with a rainbow of fruit flavors when I play. Hard to describe, but I will be sure to post some video of it soon. I've also retired my rainbow keyboard and other controllers which I've swapped out for a brand new Quneocontroller which is shaping up to revolutionize the "live remix" component of my performance! Check the schedule below- starred dates are the ones where exaltron will be on board.
