Didi Kern muss hier nicht vorgestellt werden....
Of Franco-Moroccan origin, Sophia Djebel Rose discovered an interest in poetry from an early age. As a child, she claims to become a writer, to express the beauty of the land, the one she keeps leaving, in a permanent exile specific to a childhood shared between two countries. Later she began studying literature and philosophy. But when at the age of 23 she graduates to teach, she decides to leave everything for a nomadic life. Take the risk, be radical, still taste the dust of the road. Because in the end, what she retains from these studious years is that poetry only has meaning if it is realized in action. From this radical and life-saving choice, a few years of wandering ensued. Sophia travels through Europe, the Maghreb and the Near East where she performs with the folk duo An Eagle in your Mind in which she sings and plays the Indian harmonium. Without musical training or any
experience, it is instinct and faith that for her guide creation. She learns the profession of singer on the job. From turkish and elsewhere's undergrounds clubs Sophia retains a taste for the possible and an unfailing love for the margins. When, pushed by the need and the desire to experiment, Sophia goes solo, it will be accompanied by a guitar that she will compose her first songs, in French. In 2020 Sophia Djebel Rose releases two titles on the English label Reverb Worship specializing in ultra-limited editions of folk gems. In 2022 Sophia self-produced her first album Métempsycose. Recorded in France, on the high plateaus of the Massif Central where she finally found refuge, the album delivers this light specific to the summits in which it was born. The arpeggios of a guitar mix with the bareness of a voice that sings of black forests and clear waters, the seasons, death, revolt and love. Between asphalt and wide open spaces Sophia sings of the grief of a nocturnal fauna whose hopes are fomented in squats and concert halls. If it would be tempting to speak of folk to characterize her work, the music of Sophia Djebel Rose falls rather in the wake of free-spirited and avant-garde women who have never ceased to explode the boundaries of style. To name a few: Catherine Ribeiro, Buffy Sainte Marie, PJ Harvey, Nico and Emma Ruth Rundle
Raoul Eden
Lyrical Instrumental Guitar.
Raoul Eden offers an instrumental guitar set with 6 and 12 strings punctuated by slide dobro and modular drone.
His style is rooted in a primitive psychedelic blues open to the sounds of the Middle East, classical lyricism and Indian ragga.His guitar playing digs as much into repetitive and ecstatic structures as into quasi-improvised free forms; and borders on a journey beyond reality and through illusions.
Hary Wetterstein - Gitarre, Stimme, E-Bow, Loops
Pedro DuAhrt, Musiker aus Portugal, hat 12 Jahre in Wien gelebt, 7 Jahre davon, zur Wetterstein-Musik, die psychedelische Basis und die polymelodische Komponente entwickelt, kommt für dieses Konzert wieder nach Wien und wird mit seinem außergewöhnlichen Flötenspiel bezaubern.
Wetterstein spielt auf seinen Sitarren, aus eigener Werkstatt.
PetraOm – Groove, Sounds, Monochord
Wetterstein spielt auf seinen Sitarren, aus eigener Werkstatt.
PetraOm ist für die digitalen Grooves und Beats und spacigen Sounds zuständig, dazu erklingen manchmal das Monochord oder die Stimme.
Meditativ trance-ige Sequenzen und rhythmisch tanzbare Passagen lösen einander ab und nehmen den aufmerksamen Zuhörer mit, auf eine Reise in andere Welten.
*IPPIO PAYO* is the alter ego of Munich guitarist Josip Pavlov. Curently playing with Martin Lehmann on trumpet. Instrumental compositions for string instruments and trumpet melt into a polyrythmic web. A hypnotic and narative one!

Saite is a trio formed by

and Filippo GIllono on Acoustic Guitar (IT), signalling the meeting of three personas, sublimated into a timbrical research with the focus on the decontextualization of the object, both as musical instrument and as mundane every-day thing, in the sonic and physical space.

Etienne Nillesen - snare drum Alexander Chernyshkov - reley, objects
Marina Poleukhina - expressive objects
The music of Etienne Nillesen, despite its minimalist approach, achieves a remarkable complexity of sound. Each meticulously crafted note and nuance demands undivided attention and concentration from both the performer and the listener, fostering a deep connection between the two. Through a combination of traditional and extended techniques, he unveils an array of unexplored and unexpected sonic dimensions within the seemingly limited realm of the snare drum.
In addition to his solo concerts, his interest in diverse forms of music and art has given him the opportunity to work alongside artists and composers such as Nate Wooley, Axel Dörner, Christian Wolff, Ingar Zach, Christian Wallumrød, Sarah Davachi, MichaelThieke, Marta Warelis, Rudi Mahall, Magda Mayas, Lotte Anker, Lester St.Louis, Elena Rykova, Carl Ludwig Hübsch, Christian Wolfarth, Maya Bennardo, Finn Loxbo, Ryan Packard, Anne La Berge, Kristofer Svensson, Wolter Wierbos, Katherine Young, Eric Wubbels, Sofia Jernberg, Nick Dunston, Kaja Draksler, Sam Pluta, Weston Olencki, Madison Greenstone, Ruud Roelofsen and Zeynep Toraman.
Alexander Chernyshkov is a composer, performer and improviser. He actively
experiments with new vibrating sources and his main focus is the composition and practice of the performative, musical theatre based on interdisciplinarity between methods and genres, which is being referred as ERROR THEATER. His pieces were commissioned and performed in theatres and festivals like Hamburg State Opera, Elektrotheater Stanislavsky
(Moscow), Musiktheatertage Vienna, Steirischer Herbst in Graz, Teatro alle Tese in Venice, Tempo reale, Biennale di Venezia Musica, Steirischer Herbst.
Marina Poleukhina
is composer and improviser.
The focus of her artistical attention lies in an interdisciplinary work. Her music unite a
creation of a world that goes beyond only sounds. It connects movement, light, video
projections on unusual surfaces, manipulation of ordinary devices that make them become instruments, objects that create their own space. This evolves into new and unexplored acoustical situations of an intense complexity. A territory made of crossroads of genres.
Her music is played on festivals: Ultima (Oslo), Wien Modern (Vienna), Path Festival
(Verona), MATA (New York) and others. She works with ensembles such as Nadar,
MCME, Nostri Temporis, Looptail, Zwerm, Platypus, Airborne Extended, Curious chamber;

El Chico Fuendre
El Chico Fuendre is a Vilnius-based electronic music group that consists of three performers: two composers and a chemist. El Chico Fuendre formed in 2020 and through the years the group has released 4 albums, and gained sympathy from Lithuanian listeners through the diversity of music genres in their works. That being said the group has searched for its sound through a multitude of styles ranging from hip-hop, to french disco, to indie dance, however as the artists mature creatively the trio seems to find it's unique voice in something that could be called contemporary psychedelic pastoral electronic music.
El Chico Fuendre has performed their music not only in live electronic shows, but also in multidisciplinary projects.
