Beta Cloud (Carl Pace also formerly ‘the beta cloud’) is a western classical and jazz educated performer based in New York, USA. Beta Cloud aims to span the sonic ground between avant/improv/instrumental performance and ambient/drone/DJ sound installation. All compositions are improvised in real time. Noise, hiss, and dynamic peaks, sub and supersonics are intentional and controlled to ensure a maximum lo-fi listening experience. The aim of Beta Cloud is to provide intensity, relaxation, positive aggression, and a sense of passionate response to all listeners.
To date, BETA CLOUD has had the pleasure of sharing live performance experiences with: AIDAN BAKER, NADJA, JAMES PLOTKIN and TIM WYSKIDA, SLEEP RESEARCH FACILITY, WOLF EYES, BLACK MAYONNAISE, NAVICON TORTURE TECHNOLIGIES, TODD MERRELL, OCEAN, BLOODY PANDA, FLOWERS OF HELL, NOVELIST, TEETH SO SHARP, and many others.
Beta Cloud also performs in SHARE GLOBAL events (http://share.dj/), such as performances at Nuit Blanche in Toronto CA with SHARE MONTREAL and in New York City with SHARE NYC, is an active member of THE OPEN MUSIC ENSEMBLE (openmusic.us), and performs live as a component of the power noise outfit GOLDEN DAWN TRIO (Mutus Liber/Beta Cloud/Vowels/Alfred Brown).
