Trans-hypnotic space-chill, night-noise / dawn-silence, deepwater coloured, psychedelic, minimal-experimental ambient live act: the Hungarian PULPO! live act is a metastring solo project, occasionally duo or trio with guest musicians. Tune in on 8th September 2014 Monday 8pm CET on the Chill channel. Reruns: 9 Tuesday 2pm, 10 Wednesday 8am, 11 Thursday 2am and 13 Saturday 5am.
Pulpo! live act is Tamás Lehoczky on guitars, FX & midi.
Pulpo means octopus in Spanish.
Pulpo! Live act is basically a solo project with two guitars, lots of effects and a couple of midi controllers. Even eight tentacles is hardly enough for handling these stuff live. This is where the name comes from.
With this video pulpo was the 7th winner at Native Instruments’ Guitar Rig Hero Video Contest.
This is the video which started the ‘pulpo’ ambient-psychedelic solo project and from 2012 it can be seen live as ‘pulpo! live act’. Had a couple of gigs from then on, just to name a few venues:
A38 Ship, Ultrahang Festival (one of the most important experimental festival in Hungary), Bankito Festival, Vizrakter (opening ceremony) and Cökxpon Ambient Café. Sometimes the sets are played with guests, for instance in the last two years I had the opportunity to work with Evelyn Kandech, Peter Homoki, etc.
The always changing live sets are cca. 15-20min long, the base of the sets - the grooves and the guitar themes - is pretty much the same, but controlling the arrangement live on the spot makes all pulpo! live sets unique and unrepeatable.
Just to quote a pulpo! live act fan: “…it’s emotionally unsettling, musically stirring…”
