Description
Come to Serial Space to see Matt Warren’s (Hobart) “mumble(speak) tour!
He will be supported by P>A> - audio/visual combination of Phil Williams and Andrew Gadow.

mumble(speak) – ‘The Good and Bad People and Things’ tour 2010 - an aural narrative. Industrial hums, subterranean rumbles from the earth, voices uttered in hushed tones (like the sound of a memory as an internal dialogue) and the search for pieces of melody amongst the murk.
mumble(speak) is the drone/ambient/mood creation of Hobart artist Matt Warren and he is taking the project on it’s first Australian tour, thanks to support from Sound Travellers. The show will incorporate, effected guitar drones, video projection and snippets of dialogue culled from interviews form local prior to the show.

Hobart based artist and musician Matt Warren started this solo act mumble(speak) as a ‘mood’ project alongside his Broken Tiny (distorted beats/power electronics) and Time Office (shoegaze/melodic rock) projects in 2007. This soon became his main solo project.
Influenced by the sound design of Alan Splet and David Lynch, the dark ambient project from Mick Harris called LULL and the expansive soundscapes of Brian Eno, mumble(speak) has evolved over this short period, utilising sampled drones and voice, effected live guitar and vocals and in some cases video components.
