About
an all encompassing feast for the senses building from pure frequency, incorporating video projections, performance art, and minimalist stage lighting, into a hitherto uncharted realm of aural bliss of tragic proportion. Patrick hails from experimental industrial electro performance ensemble 'Dweller on the Threshold' - a Sydney based psychotronic dreamscape project perpetrated with then - partner in crime, Helene Hex Henbane, involving percussionist - Glen Maltby (Beastianity) and previously, legendary multi instrumentalist, John Murphy (KnifeLadder, Death in June, SPK, NWW, etc, etc, etc.).
'Dweller on the Threshold' performed over many years in the Sydney underground noise scene, recording two independent CDs through ‘Can A Worms’ record label, and collaborating with many and varied Performance Artists including 'De Ja Vudoo', 'Mia Mortal' and the legendary 'Butchered Babies' in their various extravaganza’s as well as the crème of Sydney’s underground experimental noise scene.
Before 'Dweller on the Threshold', Patrick, with Helene and John Murphy formed 'Jaundiced Eye', an industrial noise/art act that performed alongside many influential noise art bands and performance artists including The Mu Mesons and Tony Buck of the Necks.
Before that Patrick was a founding member of art rock band 'Box the Jesuit', playing guitar, keyboards and saxophone after originally joining the band as trumpet player when they were ‘Madroom’ – a seminal art rock outfit incorporating extraordinary instrumentation like shopping trolley, toy piano, cello, screeching cat gutting violin and trumpet. Concurrently, Patrick formed ‘Smack of Jellyfish’, an onslaught of pure black noise in a thick maelstrom of colliding, crashing, ultra-down-tempo arrhythmia.
