Low Intervention is an experimental music series curated by Annie Garlid, which brings together live sets and DJ sets. This iteration will feature performances from Paul Arámbula, Sonambulists, & DJ Plankton.
Paul Arámbula: A timeless collection of heartfelt and abstract pop, as obscured through the lenses of Robert Wyatt, Legendary Pink Dots, and an amalgamation of aspects from the Flying Nun catalog. Although he has lived in Berlin for most of the past decade, Paul has always been close-by on the localized level of Phoenix/ Tempe, Arizona. Living there, it would have been impossible to not find Paul: From his “legendary if you caught them as the opener for your band’s Phoenix tour date” group The Chandails, to eclectic post-punk trio Vegetable. Paul’s solo output has ranged from primitive guitar (think no-wave blues) to large ensemble noise-assault poetry, with his current approach to orchestrated and dynamic songwriting yielding material that feels both raw and highly intricate / orchestrated. Paul's latest album 'Still’s Keep' (January 2025 - Gilgongo Records) was recorded between 2016 – 2023 in Berlin, Phoenix and New York. Mixing and mastering by John Dieterich (Deerhoof). It follows 2021’s ‘Towantowanto’ (on German/ Lithuanian label Musikii), 2020’s ‘Submarine & Walk Thru This World With Me’, a 7” & CD set, (also on Gilgongo) and appearances on 3 incredible compilations on Kashual Plastik. In that time, he has performed throughout Europe, including KRAAK Fest in Brussels. The album release for 'Still’s Keep' was held in December 2024 at Blank Forms in NYC.
Somnambulists: Somnambulists is the solo moniker for the freeform minimalist drone electric guitar music of Warren Ng. While navigating mostly under the radar as a musician and visual artist, he has performed solo and collaboratively in venues past and present such as Tonic, Knitting Factory, Death by Audio, Sunview Luncheonette, the Fire Over Heaven series at Outpost Artist Resources, and Microscope Gallery, as well as at the experimental film festivals Mono no Aware (NYC) and the San Francisco Cinematheque’s Crossroads. His recordings include Somnambulists’ From the Field to the Factory (2019) and Ascending Planes (2023) on Zum Audio.
Jade Plankton: Jade Plankton is Annie Garlid, who organizes the Low Intervention series and also makes music as UCC Harlo.
