Too Long; Didn't Read

TL;DR is a quartet brought together by trumpeter, composer and former Artistic Director of the Australian Art Orchestra, Peter Knight. Influenced by Brian Eno, John Hassell, The Necks, and swathes of electronic music, TL;DR creates hypnotic, minimal, groove based music that is fresh and distinctive, and that spins these influences into a sound that defies categorisation.

Crossing generations, TL;DR brings together some of the most influential younger musicians on the Melbourne scene. Bassist/vocalist, Helen Svoboda floats her melodic wordless soprano over deep grooves. Guitarist, Theo Carbo uses rhythmic repetition and textural variation to stunning effect, while 20 year old drummer Quinn Knight (who is also Peter's son) lays down shimmering cymbal washes and texturally rich beats that underpin the group's sound.

Peter Knight has developed an international reputation as an innovator who is extending the possibilities of his instrument with approaches that interweave acoustic preparations, extended techniques with electroacoustic processing, vintage delays, tape machines, and pedals.
