Nequaquam Vacuum
- a free post-world ensemble, founded in 1999 by Mssrs. Noah Mickens and Tyler Armstrong. Over time a sound has emerged from their hours of improvisation which recalls asian and middle eastern traditional musics, avant-classical percussion, and the noisier end of new jazz. Frequent comparisons include Harry Partch, gamelan, Einsturzende Neubauten, noh theater, John Cage, 23 Skidoo, and Crash Worship. Their method involves the accumulation and construction of instruments from scrap metal and other found objects, played in congress with conventional musical instruments from around the world.
The creation of a butoh music is one of the major directions they have taken over the years, first providing the musical soundtrack and now learning ways of merging the music and the dance. Nequaquam Vacuum has toured and recorded with a number of different line-ups; most notably as a trio featuring Armstrong, Mickens, and multi-instrumentalist Travis McAlister. Other recurring members have included J Lieber (flute, violin, etc.), Uxepi Ipexu (cello), Gordon Romei (percussion), Rale Sidebottom (percussion), Nolan Ashley (drums), Ryan Spangler (tuba, contrabass, clarinet, piano, etc.), James Davis (prepared guitar), Jonathan Howitt (drums), David Miranda (singing bowl, samplers), Sasha Drummure (percussion), Brian Crowl (sitar, cumbush), and Brighten Richardson (synthesizer).
