Dog Plug [Mazen Kerbaj, Maurice Louca & Tony Elieh] ~ Dog Plug كلاب البطّاريّة
Dog Plug feels exactly like its title suggests: a live wire connecting three musicians whose shared history spans decades and still produces sparks. Tony Elieh, Mazen Kerbaj and Maurice Louca approach electroacoustic improvisation as a process of constant recombination, where
