BRDCST is AB’s brand new indoor spring festival, one whereby we focus on musical limitlessness. The name is a direct reference to the retro futuristic electronica-pop of English band Broadcast, which has released inspiring albums like ‘Haha Sound’ and ‘Noise Made By The People’ over the past decade. Artists who feel strongly about musical innovation will form the focal point for BRDCST

Kaitlyn Aurelia Smith grew up in the countryside of the Orcas islands, located in the ‘Bay Area’ just above Seattle and on the Canadian border. A place that she herself describes as "one of the most magical and peaceful places I have ever been."

Although she only started experimenting with modular synths many years later, her creative work has always been inspired by the vibrance and serenity of the Orcas.

She studied composition and sound technique at the Berklee College of Music and – after concentrating on voice, piano and classic guitar –came into contact with a Buchla 100 system via a neighbour. After that, she focused entirely on making electronic music with the assistance of analogue synthesizers, modular or otherwise.

Her first album Euclid (2015, Western Vinyl) was well received and her new album EARS will be released in April.

You could describe her music as mind-expanding, whimsical, droney melodious suites. Ideal stuff for fans of the early electronica pioneers, Terry Riley, Laurie Spiegel or Suzanne Ciani.

Admittance is free of charge but seats are limited.
