Paul Amitai

Using cut-out bin vinyl samples and urban nature video, Lady Firefly (Zarah Cabañas) and Paul Amitai take the familiar and transform it into something unexpected and sublime. With the typical tools of live VJ/DJ performance (laptop, turntables, CDJs, effects), the duo finds a way to spin unconventional experimental narratives out of inspired collective improvisation. Lady Firefly’s lush, painterly visuals work in perfect harmony with the dub-inspired soundscapes of Paul Amitai, as their live set often shifts through a variety of moods – from sparse, sun-dappled textures to thick sheets of distortion and deep, watery rhythmic pulses.
