Mn'JAM
Arts + Literature Laboratory 111 S. Livingston St., Madison, Wisconsin 53703
The Dutch experimental performance-art collaboration Mn’Jam (made up of the artists M and JAM) brings their improvisational music and light show to the Arts + Literature Laboratory. M sings and works with looping sounds while JAM’s electronic notes also influence the visual experience. This jazz-influenced performance mixes digital and visual expression to create a unique environment that ranges from the groovy to the mystic.
press release:
"Way out kats and kitties will know how to groove here in this sonic world where nothing is what it seems." – Chris Spector (Midwest Record)
"They collectively take the abstract thoughts of Radiohead's "Optimistic" even further out, with the leader's quiet vocal standing as a strong, tall pillar in the midst of the swirling samples, beats and other electronics, scatting and meowing and disappearing like a hip jazz cat." – Chris Slawecki (All About Jazz)
