/ Li Daiguo & Rick Parker (solo and duo)

LI DAIGUO is one of the leading figures in China’s experimental and traditional music communities. In the past decade, he has carved out a singular niche that few others occupy, that of skilled improvisational artist, musical polymath (proficient at a dozen different instruments along with throat-singing and beatboxing) and dynamic live performer known for his eclectic collaborations with a seemingly-limitless roster of colorful characters and ensembles. >>>

RICK PARKER combines jazz, experimental, electronic and rock, casting a broad net with his trombone playing augmented by electronics and synthesizers. He has worked with a large cross section of notable musicians and groups including Tim Berne, Mingus Big Band, Charli Persip, Frank Lacy, plus hip-hop legends the Wu-Tang Clan and DMC.

Since 2012, he has been a member of Ravish Momin’s Tarana, performing at concerns and festivals across the world. Parker’s innovative use of electronics with the trombone have allowed him to cross through many musical genres and even garnered the attention of manufacturers Electroharmonix and Eventide with whom he has consulted on the development of new pedals and effects. >>> http://www.rickparker.net/

DJ RIPLEY (aka Larisa Mann) is an award-winning DJ, media ethnographer, public speaker and activist. She has been playing her ferociously adventurous blend of global street bass sounds since 1995. In her sets, music from cities where immigrants and wanderers bring their sounds from home and mix them with big bass, you’ll hear azonto, cumbia, kuduro, afrobeats, baile funk, tuki, bhangra, dembow, jungle, soca, dancehall, grime, kunq, balkan beats, uzbek pop, electro cha3abi, dub, ballroom, kwaito and more rub up against each other and spark new visions. >>>> http://djripley.blogspot.com/

RAVISH MOMIN is one half of the experimental global pop project TARANA, a trombone-synth-drums duo with Rick Parker. Using digital and analog electronics, they layer live loops, melodies, textures and sounds on top of their tight-knit acoustic instruments to create a symphonic sound that also explores deep-grooving rhythms from across the world. Momin cut his jazz teeth performing/recording with members of the Association for the Advancement of Creative Musicians (AACM).
