2. 7:45pm to 8:15pm - "micFreak" - Michael Cobaria http://www.myspace.com/micfreak

From Manila to Arizona, now in Baltimore! The name micFreak was never really intended to be used as an artist name. It was an email address that mic used as an alias in joining egroups. Music runs in mic's blood. He started learning the violin at 8, the piano at 12 but wasn't that happy in playing traditional music. He learned to play the guitar, bass and keyboard during his high school years and joined several new wave bands. His college years was a different trip, he joined an r&b band and played keyboards. Playing other artists songs wasn't mic's calling so he started searching for a new musical direction and eventually found a road that lead to electronica after watching the movie "The Saint" with Val Kilmer which featured the Chemical Brothers' track "The Setting Sun". Listening to artists like OMD, Depche Mode and New Order in his teens, mic easily understood how electronic music could be produced so he bought a pc and learned about MIDI w/ Cakewalk V6. Years later he has developed his own sound fusing melody and harmony with a strong sense of rhythm. Now focusing on dance music micFreak is ready to conquer a new genre of electronic music that would surely be one of a kind.

3. 8:30pm to 9:00pm - Liz Meredith http://www.lizmeredith.com

Liz Meredith (b.1981) is a string player, improviser, and composer originally from Baltimore, Maryland.

4. 9:15pm to 9:45pm - "The Duc D'Angelos Quartet" - John Sullivan, Ed Baldi, Colin Barnhill & Jeremy Berlin http://www.myspace.com/ducdangelos

The whole of Duc D’Angelos is greater than the sum of its parts; each component may influence other components in a web of incentives, constraints and connections. The slightest change in one part causes tremors everywhere else. The Duc D'Angelos Quartet is dedicated to the idea of non-linear performance. It is music. It is musical form of sound and silence over time but there is no utilitarianism in their approach. They are not useful. They create for the moment, without premeditation. It is décor. It is graffiti via device.

5. 10:00pm to 10:30pm - "Fast Forty" Keith Sinzinger http://www.myspace.com/fastforty

Keith Sinzinger (Fast Forty) combines home-built instruments, circuit-bent devices, found sounds and miscellaneous junk to create

what he calls Intense Ambient. A lifelong newsman based in Washington, D.C., he records at District of Chaos Studios and has performed at shows sponsored by Sonic Circuits, Electric Possible and the Baltimore SDIY Group, among others.
