Following its Summer Break, Sustain-Delay returns with concert in memory of our pasts through sound. In this unique live performance , experimental musician and memory monger Kurt Buttigieg joins Yasmin Kuymisakis, known otherwise as “JOON”, for an experimental set using personal archival content. Kurt Buttigieg and Yasmin Kuymizakis will weave together their personal and collective memories through sound. This event marks Yasmin Kuymizakis’ return to the experimental. Best known through her work as JOON, blending lush synths, hypnotic beats and layered vocals, Yasmin’s breadth as a musician far exceeds the experimental synth pop that she is synonymous for as she also draws on her background in sound design and sonic experimentation.
Kurt Buttigieg has “been involved in the long and short fringes of experimental music for years – gawking at it, making it, writing about it and organising gigs”. He is the artistic director of Sustain-Delay, founded and runs the Complex Holiday label. Time and memory, as well as the organic vs the inorganic are recurrent themes in his music.
For this concert, the themes of memory and time are reinterpreted through location as the foundation for artistic exploration, reflecting their individual and communal interactions with Malta—a place they both call home despite the long time spent living abroad or on the road. Space as sound, and sound as shared and divergent histories of home (wherever that may be).
