Description
Mem1 - Alexipharmaca
Mem1 is an electroacoustic hybrid that seamlessly blends the sounds of cello and electronics to create an original and cohesive performance. Rather than a duet between two individuals, listeners experience a single voice, exploring a limitless palate of sonic possibilities. Mem1's sound is a constant yet subtle evolution of textures, ranging from sparse to dense, ambient to beat-driven, tranquil to volatile. Listeners are submerged in layers of distinctive and complex patterns, creating an aural experience which moves beyond melody, lyricism, and traditional structural confines to arrive at a new sense of organically-revealed narrative.
'Alexipharmaca', Mem1's second full-length album, is a collection of improvised works that capture the allure of the forbidden and dangerous, and the modern fascination with things ancient and shrouded in mystery. The album's title is taken from a set of poems written by Nicander of Colophon, a Greek pharmacologist (fl. 197-130 B.C.E.), whose text deals with plant and animal poisons and their antidotes. Mem1's music intoxicates with its rich textures and lavish soundscapes, but - like a beautiful yet deadly flower - something ominous inevitably lurks beneath the surface. While toxic substances can bring elation and seemingly endless bliss, they can be lethal in large doses. 'Alexipharmaca' provides the opportunity to experience this sublime demise through the saturation of aural splendor.
