Lucky Dragons will be presenting the book they are creating during a short residency at Knust, Extrapool.  In celebrating this event they will also do a live performance.

Their work can be described as experimental, ambient and improvised encounters that leads to unexpected magical moments.

Joined by Woud with his dark, ambient and surely exceptional songs, this will be a magical night indeed!

Lucky Dragons is an experimental music group consisting of Luke Fischbeck and Sarah Rara. Based in Los Angeles, California, the band are noted for their unusual sound, described as having the ability to make ‘everyday sounds become alluringly other’. Lucky Dragons’ performances include live music, video projection, and sounds created in collaboration with the audience.

And as well as making music as part of the Lucky Dragons, the band also runs a weekly collaborative drawing society called Sumi Ink Club.

"Lucky Dragons... create ecstatic music that completely transcends genres. My attempts to describe what their music actually sounds like always fall short of the magic they are making. I guess you could say it sounds like—ecstatic magic. Challenging stereotypes that electronic music is cold and sterile, Lucky Dragons' live show, though conducted via computers, is a truly great celebration of the human spirit, giving real hope for the techno-future our society is racing toward." - artforum

"a line between the handmade and the distanced digital... ...a successful forging of the personal detritus, the mic-ed moments between moments" - all music guide

Woud on Bandcamp: http://woud.bandcamp.com/

Woud is the solo music project of visual artist and bassplayer (of the band Eklin) Wouter Venema. His ambient songs combine dark melodic synths, with androgynous soul vocals. The clean sounds and production give the music a stark and detached feeling. His visual work consists of short films, drawings, animations and books. The sense of simultaneity - the layering of places and time, of earth and memories - is a central theme to his work.

Woud will also present the book he printed himself at Knust, Extrapool.
