Noise Funk… Post Jazz… Avant Rock… Experimental Improvisation… Soundscape…

Volcano Radar is a fusion of ecstatic improvisational energy and Apollonian intellect.  A power quartet fueled by dual free jazz/noise/avant guitarists Elbio Barilari and Julia A. Miller, Volcano Radar moves fluently through a stylistic range from noise-funk improvisation to structured sonic forms.

Uruguayan born multi-instrumentalist and composer Elbio Barilari and American guitarist and composer Julia Miller played together for the first time in 2012, and they made their first public appearance as Volcano Radar at the Empty Bottle shortly after.  Their soundscapes have been described as: noise-funk, post-jazz, avant-rock, improvised experimental music, jazz-electronica and neo-psychedelia.

Volcano Radar has been joined in recordings and performances by Fareed Haque and Mathgames!;  Edward Wilkerson Jr., reeds; Jim Gailloreto, reeds;  Guillermo Gregorio, reeds;  Alejandro Acierto, reeds; Harrison Bankhead, bass/cello;  Rollo Radford, electric bass;  Yosef Ben Israel, bass;  Tatsu Aoki, bass; Avreeayl Ra, drums;  Tim Davis, drums; Ernie Adams, drums;  Lou Ciccotelli, drums & percussion; Frank Rosaly, percussion; Gustavo Leone, synthesizer;  Andy Cohn, keyboards;  Axiom Brass quintet; Andrea Centazzo, percussion & electronics;  Giancarlo Schiaffini, trombone

  1. I heard Elbio on his NPR show here in Texas that there was a free download on your site. Could you please provide link, cause I could not find it. Thanks.
