The Master of Audio Disaster!

Performance artist Diablo Montalban, the Master of Audio Disaster, mixes live art through sound collage, drawing inspiration from music, pop culture, and noise. Diablo works spontaneously, creating pieces that are unique for the moment.

In Diablo's live pop-up performances, he combines multiple sound sources with natural atmospherics -- combining, overlapping, reversing, whatever -- to create something original, never to be performed the same way again . . . Diablo is obviously influenced by Wayne Coyne's parking lot experiments. While Wayne's celebrity is able to attract hundreds, Diablo is often left to his own devices with a handful of quizzical looks for his troubles. . .
