If I were a musician, what sort of music would I like to make? With what I have, what sort of music can I make?
B Field brings these questions to an enquiry into solo making, led by desire and inspired by the absurd and insistent masc self-sufficiency of ‘one-man bands’. A live excavation of sounds and beats reveals an attempt to build a song worthy of a night-club dance floor, thus creating my very own ‘one-(wo)man band’.
