About this Event
Welcome to The Apiary - 2025 Tour - at The Godown on Friday 4 April 8:00pm.
the||apiary (noun: a place where bees are kept; a collection of beehives) is an electro-acoustic experimental ambient duo playing viola and electronics. Their new project “ecological_succession” is a meditation on the progression of life, moving from barren ecosystems to ones brimming with sonic activity.
Through field recording, structured improvisation and poetry, they create complex, textural, living environments; they get lost and find new paths to strange places. In the||apiary, there is space to listen, reflect and be taken somewhere else; an organic softness that may embrace an ear; whisper things in long-forgotten languages
***
the||apiary - consisting of Marike (viola) and Christian (electronics) - is presenting their first studio EP: ecological||succession. In this work, they meditate on the ecological concept of succession, whereby ecosystems change from barren environments to ones brimming with sonic activity.
"We want to develop this EP to give a voice to our environment; to make the landscape sing. Given the situation we are in as a species (the rapid destruction of our natural world), it is of vital importance that we learn to listen to the things around us, and the beings surrounding us. This EP is an attempt at doing so."
See you there on Friday 4 April. Doors open at 7.30pm <3
