Virtual Proximity is an experimental-electronic-jazz-hiphop-visual project in a style that could best be described as dark jazztronica, with influences including Miles Davis, DJ Krush, Four-Tet and Nils Petter Molvaer. Their live show features improvisations on electronically processed saxophone, live manipulation of loops and samples, and spontaneous VeeJaying.
The artists interact in the moment to produce brand new sounds on the spot, along with occasional remixes of pre-composed material. The live visuals add an extra dimension of colour and movement, complementing the music with strange and wonderful imagery. Virtual Proximity have been playing regularly around Melbourne since late 2010, as well as touring interstate, with shows in SA, ACT and NSW.
They’ve appeared as part of the Gertrude St. Projection Festival, Racket, and This Is Not Art. The unit comprises James Annesley (electric saxophone, EWI, flute, live loops), Tristan Courtney (electric upright bass, laptop, MPD, Kaoss pad live loops) and Robert (aka Lazy Lazer) Jarvis (live visuals).
