With issue fifty-four, we travel deep into the realms of live improvisation with PLO, the pool lab orchestra. Initiated by Dr.Nojoke as part of POOL Berlin back in 2013, this ensemble of electronic musicians undertakes fully improvised jam sessions utilizing a wide array of hardware and software-based instruments. The core philosophy is simple yet challenging: there are no predefined roles or rules. Every session starts with a completely blank sheet, encouraging free expression and experimental musical interaction from scratch.
While the core members include ANN, Waldboot, Demas, Dr.Nojoke, the artist formerly known as From Karaoke To Stardom, and the visual artists AkustoOptik, the orchestra regularly opens its doors to international guests.
This specific Mindcast features a direct recording of Jam No. 44, captured in August 2018. It is presented exactly as it happened—fully improvised, with absolutely no overdubs and no edits. While the first hour of this gathering was previously published as POOLcast 036, this episode brings you the second hour of their remarkable electronic dialogue.
