Powerplant encompasses the work of some of
the most dynamic young British artists, bringing
together the virtuoso percussionist Joby Burgess
and live sound engineer Matthew Fairclouch.
The musical duo are joined by visual artist Kathy
Hinde, creating experimental and challenging
repertoire, which includes a video of their combined
imaginations.
The repertoire also includes a new take on Steve
Reich's Electric Counterpoint, first commissioned
in 1987 for guitarist Pat Metheny, placing the
percussionist against a pre-recorded tape of
himself.
The pieces by Kraftwerk, widely acknowledged as
the pioneers of modern dance music, also feature
highly on this disc with arrangements for string
quartet and a variety of percussive and electronic
instruments.
