Genre: Experimental, Noise

Theme: Authentic recordings and live performances using the "Accidental Guitar Method", created by the artist. "Accidental Guitar" is a holistic and grounded concept that includes three main aspects. The first of these is the creation of sound worlds, by combining the guitar with distortion effects – a type of “routing”, or “mapping” technique where the musician does not lose himself, however. But, instead works in a deliberate manner, with the tools available to him. The second dimension of “Accidental Guitar” is improvisation – an approach that Cooper Marquardt has chosen, systematically rejecting predetermined choreographies and all forms of rehearsal, or planning. This applies not only to live performances, but also when making recordings in his studio. Finally, the third dimension to this concept is the specific situation that the musician encounters when playing: the atmosphere, setting, persons, conditions and moods present in the space in question, lead to a contextualisation of his music.
