William Hicks was last in Orlando earlier this year, at the Falcon in Thornton Park, playing an increasingly hypnotic bifurcated set of electronics and stripped-down drumming, displaying a more reflective side to his usually muscular percussion kinetics.
To those who saw him seated in the middle of the Falcon among revelers mantrically drumming on a single snare, eyes beatifically closed, this next chapter will come as no surprise. Hicks performs a long ambient drone composition, Drone 1______ , at the Dining Room, composed and performed on synth and arcane electronics, promising maximum bliss.
