Michael McArthur (aka gorf) is a local multidisciplinary artist who has been actively
producing various types of electronica since 2003. Gorf's music tends to vary from track to track,
though there is always the underlying presence of some kind of IDM. His music is very
progressive in the sense that it seems to build out of itself, a construction of sound if you will. He is
inspired by everything around him - the many spontaneous interactions of all forms that come
with life.
Gorf has given away numerous self-released CDs which all available to download on
his website. He has also appeared on Here's My Card Records. A label based out of
Toronto that features many local musicians that span over a variety of styles. Recently,
he and his collaborative partner pocketroot released a four track EP under the
name Denseware , also available for free on the
internet.
knowing looks - grain
records/musique risquee http://www.myspace.com/knowinglooks

The Knowing Looks aesthetic is to meld the structures of microhouse with songs and records that have affected me in both good and bad ways. Far
removed from the quick gimmick and novelty of 'ironic' mash ups, it's about
using the influences of a lifetime obsession with music and crate digging to create songs that bears little resemblance to the original samples they come
from, but still tries to tip a hat to the originators in some way.
Knowing Looks runs a record label called grain and have a release coming out on
akufen's musique risquee this year, so If you're putting labels beside the artist
name's you can tack those two onto mine.
Broadcast episode #2 had a fairly good draw this past Friday... I managed to pull it off despite having our baby boy born a week prior to the event... I would like to say thanks to those who came out and those that played... This time I managed to record all the sets with a quality recorder... Below are the sets that were performed that evening...
Intrepid Traveller - played a glitchy tech set with some really cool sonic breakdowns... I have no idea how to go about producing this style of music...
Tel Quel - performed an ambient melodic set with live guitar all sequenced with Ableton Live... All performers used Live and it was interesting to see how each performer used this great application to their benefit...
cosmosuave - pulled off a techno sub minimal set that evening with little prep as he was banking on someone else to play that night... Overall not a bad performanace...
