Battle of Everyouth Video Documentation

Posted on July 18, 2011 by John C.S. Keston

On June 4, 2011 the Battle of Everyouth was staged and performed outside of the Minneapolis Institute of Art (MIA). I performed improvisational music non-stop for three hours with Luke Anderson (electronics), Jon Davis (bass, bass clarinet), and Graham O’Brien (drums, percussion). This video documentation is accompanied by bit and pieces from the board mix during the event. My instrumentation included the Rhodes electric piano, Sequential Circuits Pro-One, Electro-Harmonix Memory Man Delay, and Korg Monotron.

This segment from our performance at The Battle of Everyouth on June 4, 2011 has some nice chaotic drums from Graham and resampling from Luke over the top of some steady Pro-One arpeggiation and bass from Jon Davis.

One of the things I like about this Pro-One laden segment from our performance at The Battle of Everyouth, June 4, 2011 is the crazy, hard-panned, frequency sweeps that DJ Luke Anderson was laying over the top.

This short segment from our performance during The Battle of Everyouth at the Minneapolis Institute of Art highlights some of the unique sounds that DJ Luke Anderson produced during the performance. They come through in the mix clearly after the distorted Rhodes.

This eleven minute section from our performance during The Battle of Everyouth at the Minneapolis Institute of Art started shortly after Jon Davis switched from playing bass to bass clarinet. Throughout this section I was mostly turning knobs on the Monotron and Pro-One while DJ Luke Anderson processed and looped the bass clarinet and Graham O’Brien played drums.
