Music and art come together to bring Kansas City a night of premiere electronic music, courtesy of homegrown bass extraordinaire Jeremy Baguyos. The Charlotte Street Foundation's Urban Culture Project and the Kansas City Electronic Music and Arts Alliance present Back to the Source Code, a project developed by Baguyos that marries digital music and electro-acoustic bass lines by exploring the artist's past in the Shawnee Mission School District and interest in original, obsolete technology.
Baguyos, who is currently an assistant professor of music technology and double bass at the University of Nebraska in Omaha, has
worked with the Des Moines Metro Opera Orchestra, the Lincoln Symphony,
the Omaha Symphony, and the Kansas City Symphony. He has also performed in
Washington, D.C., the UK and Korea. His solo show is
an
improvisational recital of dissonant sounds that resolve into solid
beats and
bouncing riffs -- an aural treat for anyone interested in the
manufacturing of
sound and the chaos of electronic music making.
The interdisciplinary show comes to Kansas City on Saturday, February 19, and starts at 8 p.m. at La Esquina, 1000 West 25th Street. Tickets are $10,
but students can score half-price tickets by presenting a student ID.
