Jodi Shapiro
Burun
Remember lying in your bed at night, in the middle of the summer? Windows
wide open, listening to street noises and, if you were lucky, the rumble of
an elevated train in the distance? Jodi Shapiro does. Armed with a laptop
and her memories, Jodi performs music under the name burun (most of the time.)
Often beatless but not rhythmless, undulating uneasily, strangely familiar
but slightly out of context, each performance is "composed" in real-time
from sounds collected from near and far.
burun is, in no particular order: a Japanese word, a way to relive the past,
spelled with a lowercase 'b', a sort of "environmental music", never
too serious but just serious enough, a regular at SHARE, moonlighter at HellLab,
Opiate, and F:T:H.
