Relive a magical performance put on for Nuit Blanche 2016 called “NIPI: Paysages Sonores”, led by spoken word poet / musician Moe Clark alongside throat singer Nina Segalowitz & Rhythm & Hues on turntables / MPC. The multi-layered set mixed traditional storytelling, drumming and singing with loop pedals, effects, and a sample-based sound design drawing from field recordings and the rich pantheon of indigenous music to create an northern ambiance as crisp as the night outside. The highlight of the night was this live retelling of an Inuit Drum Story, presented here. This performance, commissioned by the Canadian Guild of Crafts, marks their first collaboration together.
