House of Alchemy is a Buffalo-based CD-R label specializing in limited edition releases of psych-noise, outsider drone and free-folk weirdness. At Soundlab this Friday (Nov. 9) the label exhibits its breadth with a “bi-coastal” showcase featuring groups from LA and around NY state, including Sleepwalkers Local 242, a solo artist looping guitar and keyboards; Antique Brothers, whose mix of electric and acoustic elements embodies “gritty industrial folk music;” Century Plants, a guitar-based drone and feedback outfit; and Stone Baby, who creates “haunting ambient chamber noise” through tape manipulation and fractured guitar playing. There is no cover charge, which makes for a perfect opportunity to check out what this intriguing local label has been up to. The show starts at 9pm
