Kordik-Lucas Duo

"The duo – Lucas on trombone and Kordik on synths – conjure up vast structures that loom up out of the murk, muddy swathes of sound that are criss-crossed with itchy, writhing movement. ... (They) achieve this singular aesthetic in part by combining the new and familiar. Lucas’ trombone hisses and blarts will be familiar to anyone versed in extended techniques, true, but when they’re mixed with Kordik’s electronic soundscapes, they sound utterly new." (Paul Margree)

"The trombone and the analogue synth provide a full set of cultural resonances to destabilise, disrupt and destroy. They are avatars visiting worlds where new meaning is forged in rebellious acts of listening." (Tony Hardie-Bick)

Besides their sonic partnership, Lucas and Kordik run their Earshots label which focuses on improvised music and field recordings. They also curate sporadic Earshots concert sessions. For more information check their www.earshots.org
