Jan Klamm and Patrik Pelikan, both members of Prague-based free impro trio Ruinu, have developed their approach to sound and improvisation with a deep belief that everything has to be taken apart and interrupted. They use electronic, wind and string instruments or variable amplified objects but they focus on tape manipulations foremost – they record the ongoing sounds not to create a background for the forthcoming action but for the opportunity to rewind, re-record and fragment everything that has been taped. In past years they have been collaborating with Copenhagen-based experimental musician and film-maker Martin Klapper and Tom Smith, expressive vocalist best-known for his long-standing project To Live & Shave in LA.

Abstract Household Warfare
Etceteral
Abstract Household Warfare is a collaboration between two prolific Hungarian sound artists. The industrial noise warlock Rovar17 and the rhythmic hermit Xpldnglke. Together the duo creates soundscapes that exists somewhere between catatonic phantom noises and stimulating beats. It's all an eternal struggle for the control over the mixer, or just infinite loops of the secular idleness at the first morning after lobotomy.
https://www.discogs.com/artist/9581788-Abstract-Household-Warfare
Etceteral are a Slovenian experimental trio (saxophone & electronics, drums, visuals) who create a propulsive, polyrhythmic futurist jazz. It is a sound marked by abstract modular explorations, hypnotic drumming, ricocheted horn textures and crystalline production. Interzones between Dub, Krautrock, Afro-rhythms, free improvisation and quantized electronic music are brightly lit on this thrilling album.
"Slovenian future-jazz-tronicatrio’s quixotic second album… makes for intriguing listening, as the trio’s playing doesn't settle for too long into anything overly comfortable. There’s a prickliness to tracks like “Rome Burns": even when they fall into a propulsive groove, with Radiophonic Workshop glitches orbiting the drummer's relentless drive, something will start to gnaw at the music's spine, or try to topple the construction.” 7/10 UNCUT

Jacopo Buda
{LOW_LEVEL_LITERATURE}
Jacopo Buda is an italian trumpet player focused on research music and sound art, and also organizer of The Cave, research-music festival in collaboration also with Demetrio Cecchitelli and USMA radio, directed by Roberto Paci Dalò.
His language mainly explores the possibilities that come from the encounter between the trumpet and it's processing and manipulation in real-time through the use of hardware effects – as well as the use and sampling of concrete objects, drums and rattles, always in real time.
The sound aesthetic of the performance gives life to soundscapes, sound textures, melodies and gestures in which the acoustic world is constantly changing, carrying the listener into new sound narratives.

Jesper Nordberg Trio
Jesper Nordberg Trio is a group based in Copenhagen (DK) and Malmö (SE), consisting of double bass player Jesper Nordberg,
violinist Stefan Pöntinen and
trumpetist Ruhi Erdogan.
With Nordberg's compositions as a starting point, the trio's music is characterized by close interplay and radical shifts between different atmospheres, with elements ranging from experimental improvisation, Balkan music, Scandinavian folklore, jazz and expressionism.
Jesper Nordberg's warm tone and rhythmic displacements meet Ruhi's trumpet, giving the listener associations to everything from Miles Davis to a Turkish village wedding and with Stefan's brave and innovative violin a unique musical landscape is depicted.

PHILIPP QUEHENBERGER & DIDI KERN
Der Keyboarder PHILIPP QUEHENBERGER und der Drummer DIDI KERN (BULBUL, FUCKHEAD) sind seit mehr als zwei Dekaden als Duo aktiv. Bekannt für ihre ekstatischen Live-Shows liefern sie den besten Beweis, dass sich freie Improvisation nicht auf ein Genre beschränken muss, sondern vielmehr die Möglichkeit bietet, unterschiedlichste musikalische Sprachen zu verschmelzen. Im Fall von KERN/QUEHENBERGER reicht das Spektrum von Punk zu Free Jazz, von Techno zu Krautrock, von Grindcore zu Avant-Pop. Hier wird gedroschen, berzerkert, gerackert und beackert bis die Fetzen fliegen. Die Energie, die hier freigesetzt wird, übersetzt sich quer durch alle Szenen. Folglich gibt es von der Kunstgalerie bis zum besetzten Haus kaum einen Ort, den das Duo nicht schon bespielt hätte. (text: Shilla Strelka)
