SY.Gigs Season 4.0: Momen + Rhubiqs

An intimate, deep listening journey through ambient electronica, expansive soundscapes, delicate textures and immersive space.

Event 7.0 and the Final Event of SY.Gigs Season 4.0

Momen is the London-based duo of Iván Muela (piano/guitar/electronics) and Nat Philipps (saxophone/electronics), who balance poise and catharsis throughout the eight movements of their début album, Sympathetic Resonance. Equally inspired by Bach, Sakamoto, and time spent in post-punk bands, their world of jazz-influenced experimentation and spacious ambient textures thrives on the subtle transformations embedded within apparent stillness.

Support comes from Rhubiqs, the solo project of London-based composer and sound designer Tom Squires.

Squires' music creates a world where Actress meets Kranky, with a side dose of Aphex Twin's Selected Ambient Works for good measure. These are far-reaching electronic and ambient sounds that provide immersive soundscapes for listeners to lose themselves in amidst thought-provoking textures, samples and field recordings.
