GGHED (AV dub flutters)

Gabriela González (KRAAK records overseer) and Gaute Granli (who released a bunch of modern classics on Drid Machine, Nashazphone and other thrilling labels) are teaming up as GGHED. This is a rare chance for you for some some uneasy listening (as invoked by processed electric guitar signals) accompanied by some texture-rich images of flashy deterioration. In other words:

Over the past four years, Gaute and Gabriela have worked on merging their respective artistic realms into a singular psychedelic audio-visual performance. Using an improvisational approach to live music and video, they strive to create an experience that eludes the senses, where image and sound coalesce, reacting to each other in an attempt to merge the two into a single multisensory output. Gaute’s swerving, unpredictable use of guitar, electronics and vocals are visually transliterated by Gabriela’s real-time video compositions, the one influencing the other in subtle, disquieting and ultimately inextricable ways.

HORACIO POLLARD (decaying electronic warps)

We’re super happy to celebrate the comeback of H.P., who’s back in town to bring us some nutty machine music pranks. If you don’t know H.P. from his memorable releases (on Futura Resistenza, for example, as well as KRAAK and Drid Machine, too) or collabs (with the unforgotten bands MoHa! and Staer), or from having the Neigh%music label under his auspices, you are not too late to enter this strange swirl of anti-music yet.

Berlin based half English, half Argentinian “noise-eccentric” Leon “HORACIO POLLARD” Barnett has been active in the field of experimental music since 2002 and has released a bunch of vinyl, tapes and CDs on various labels. Armed with a drum machine, he delivers an exhilarating avalanche of distorted jams filled with heavy analogue riffs, hypnotic jazzy grooves and fierce noise-drenched rhymes. DISSECTING TABLE meets THE RESIDENTS meets GODFLESH or tribal industrial funk at its most devastating.
