We are absolutely delighted that Nina Buchanan will be joining us on the bill on July 25th at Eastmint! 🩵

Nina Buchanan is a musician and composer predominantly working with synthesisers and experimental sonic techniques to explore melody, texture and rhythm. Emerging out of the Eora/Sydney and Naarm/Melbourne underground and experimental music scenes, her work is informed by improvisation and collaboration, scuttling around the edges of ambient, noise, IDM and minimalist musics with a staunchly DIY ethos. She has presented performances and commissions with Phoenix Central Park, Melbourne Recital Centre, Vivid Festival, Liquid Architecture, Speak Percussion, ACCA and Performance Space, and released two EPs and an album, Restless Abandon.

🧡 can not wait! @_ninabuchanan_ 🥰

💙GALLERY 2💙

‘A conch choir’ is a collaborative work turning the gallery space into an installation made up of objects and a listening chamber to immerse yourself within. 

The artistic investigation starts from thinking about the musical, and culturally reverberant sound of the conch. The artists explore amplification and the echoic through an intricate, intuitive and inhabitable sound work or as they candidly refer to it as, a conch choir.

Last week, Naarm-based producer/composer Nina Buchanan (@_ninabuchanan_) returned to The Nest to perform her Solo Works for CS-80 for a spellbound audience. Exploring the expressive possibilities of this incredibly rare and uniquely versatile polyphonic synthesiser, Nina’s performance had the gravitas of a virtuoso. Despite only having performed the work once before above the hallowed Melbourne Electronic Sound Studio (@mess_ltd), the piece has earned a cult-like status among the Australian underground electronic music community, loved for its elegance, complexity and inner darkness. Keen-eyed observers will note the Deckard's Dream, a respected Japanese synthesiser that faithfully reproduces the architecture and possible expression of the original instrument. Nina previously performed at Phoenix at the 2023 edition of Essential Tremors, curated by Angus Andrew.

After many, many requests over the years I’ve finally released the score for The Second Woman, composed and recorded in 2016

The 30 minute piano score emerges intermittently from a continuous loop throughout the 24-hour performance in which a female performer repeats a single scene 100 times with 100 men ranging in age, background and acting ability. 

Taking inspiration from John Cassavetes’ film Opening Night, Gena Rowlands and composer Bo Harwood, the score embraces improvisation, amateurism, and melodrama into the compositional process. Recorded at Bakehouse Studios on a practice piano with a Zoom H4n recorder, it was Nina’s first time working with the piano in many years.

The Second Woman has been performed in New York, London, Barcelona, Toronto, Taiwan, Amsterdam and Australia, by actors including Ruth Wilson, Alia Shawkat, Laara Sadiq, Zhu Zhi-Ying and Nat Randall, and continues to tour internationally, with dates in Athens, Madrid and Seville in 2024.

Composed, performed & recorded by Nina Buchanan
