13YC DU0_live by Zooey Agro

a few years ago, i decided i didn't want to play concerts where people would be seated anymore. it creates such a distance.
and it's kind of hugging the fence, no? you're not standing and dancing and giving and you're not sincerely relaxing, either.
our 13 YC trio/quartet is for dancing and shouting and being loud and crazy. our 13YC duo is for people who maybe aren't even up for a concert, they just want to chill. so when Philip and i play just the two of us, it's the opposite from what we want to do with our 13 YC trio/quartet. if people lie down flat on the floor, drift away, maybe even fall asleep, that's exactly what we're going for. it's about morphs instead of clear cuts, and it's about long plateaus and slow improvisation.
so we went to the country-side, into a friend's room with clay walls and a fire place, to practice. and when we played at this friend's birthday, it was the coziest experience ever. but since it's improvised, it might go any place in the end. i only hope not on to a chair.
