improvistaion. He uses the sounds of the T-Rodimba, MicroModular, and digital effects to create the sounds you are about to hear.

Rakpointzero is the electronic musical project of Wolfgang Chan (former keyboard/ synth player of Saint of Killers, Seven Lies About Girls and guitarist of Healthy Morbidity and Galaxxy Chamber. Wolfgang currently teaches Synthesis and Sound Design at the Academy of Art College.

Rakpointzero combines noise, ambient, minimal and drum and bass with industrial and ebm to create soundscapes, experiments and compositions blending from sublime to rhythmic and melodic. His work is similar to Wumpscut, Hhaujobb, Squarepusher and Boards of Canada.

Slither Syndicate is a collaborative live project comprised of human beings Wolfgang Chan and Andre Custodio. What they do isn't real music, unless you are entertained by skipping records.

Cost: $6-10
