July 5th to 22nd / Galerie 4220 du Saint-Jean Baptiste
FREE! 

See the sounds, hear the colours… Back by popular demand for a second edition, the 15 designers assembled by curator and graphic design artist Pat Hamou for the international exhibition entitled ‘Music on Paper’ have made a living out of mixing the aural and visual senses. United by their love of music and silk-screening, each will present 3 to 5 works drawn from the international music scene. Which bands will be represented? You name it, we’ll have it!——————————————————————————————————————————————–
OSHEAGA ARTS et Converse present: DJ FOOD – The Search Engine

July 19th & 20th / Satosphère
Tickets available at the SAT Box Office

Stemming from the world premiere which took place at London’s Planetarium last fall, Strictly Kev aka DJ Food will adapt his content to fit the Satosphere in order to provide an unprecedented and immersive phonic and visual experience. The show, created with the help of astronomers from the Royal Observatory of Greenwich, uses music by The Search Engine, images from Kev’s personal archives as well as an array of material provided by the astronomers themselves. The performance presents a remixed version of the album, as well as new and exclusive material that provides spectators with a unique experience. This immersive experience will transport you into a musical and visual universe that has never been experienced before.

Watch an interview with DJ Food filmed during his visit to the SAT in May. Click here.

This is not the first time we’ve heard from the duo consisting of keyboardist Alex McMahon and percussionist Jean-Philippe Goncalves. Their first album, “First Aid Kit” hit the shelves in 2005 and took home the Félix Award for best electronic or techno album. They have also collaborated with Lauryn Hill when she came through Montreal in 2005. The group is launching a new album on May 15.
