This week there is only one Bleeding Edge event that has been previously reported. That is the only Outsound Presents concert of this month. This will be the monthly SIMM (Static Illusion Methodical Madness) Series, which will present two duo performances: the Dreambounders duo of André Custodio and LX Rudis, working with percussion, synthesizers, and captured sound sources, and the duo of Brett Carson on piano and vocalist David Katz. There will be four other events this week, all at venues likely to be familiar to those that follow this site regularly.
