AWAKENING: A Sunset to Sunrise Peace Vigil
In solidarity with Terry Riley's peace vigil in Nevada City, California:
Members of the UCSD music community will convene at the Ché Café from 7pm on
Wednesday, October 2 until 7am on Thursday, October 3, for a twelve-hour
performance of La Monte Young's "Composition 1960 #7", the perfect fifth B
and F-sharp, "to be held for a long time".
Terry Riley's concept of staying awake is a metaphor for staying vigilant
and putting activism before personal comfort (read below).
All are welcome to come for all or part of the night, either to listen and
stay awake or to help keep the fifth continuous through the night.
La Monte Young's "Composition 1960 #7" is a statement of continuity and
unity. The perfect fifth symbolizes the profound source of all sound,
universal energy, eternity. As such it is an expression of peace.

Rubble on Spruce
Trummerflora member and native San Diegan Nathan Hubbard celebrates the release of his new album. "Born on Tuesday" finds percussionist Hubbard stepping out of his usual group projects for his first solo recording. After a year of his 12 steps program (one solo concert a month), Hubbard presents a wide range of his solo work, using free improvisation, junk percussion, homemade electronics, drum set, and extreme processing to create a wide ranging landscape of sound. www.returntoone.com
Las Cajas Del Ritmo - Ramon Amescua, Pepe Mogt, Jorge Ruiz - drum machines, electronics Las Cajas Del Ritmo utilizes about 30 vintage and custom built drum machines to traverse a wide range of improvised and composed sonic territories. Ramon (aka Bostich), Pepe and Jorge (aka Fussible) are key members of the Tijuana-based Nortec Collective. First envisioned by Pepe in 1999, the word "Nortec" represents a combination of "norteño" (a traditional music of northwest Mexico) and techno. Since then, Nortec's infectious combination of traditional and modern dance music has garnered much international attention. www.milrecords.com
