Members are drummer Julian Dicken and guitarist James T Mckay plus alternating bass and synth collaborators. They formed in early 2010 and one year later the debut album came out on cassette tape via German label Who Can You Trust? Records. DANIEL KORDIK/EDWARD LUCAS London based free improv duo of Daniel Kordik (synthesizers) and Edward Lucas (trombone). Daniel Kordik is a musician and performer, born in Slovakia and currently based in London. Weaving a thread around electronic and improvised music, Kordik works mainly as an improviser, music collaborator, field recordist and a regular member of the duo Jamka and Urbsounds Collective. The juicy sounds of the Vostok Synth wiggle with squelchy non-classical balls of trombone fluff. ORE We play slow music using two tubas and amplification, informed (but not limited) by our enthusiasm for drones, doom metal, improvisation and minimalism. We are heavy, but our heaviness comes from the way our bass, contrabass, and subcontrabass sounds hang in the air and relate to their surroundings – natural echoes, natural silences.’ “…authentically unusual sounds from the deep, resonant depths of their instruments, almost pulsing at times as they generated a marvellous, foghorn-deep drone, punctuated by snatched breaths, like hissing gas or the wind’s whistle. The primordial noises were somehow more impressive for being organic in nature and all the more so when you consider that this was the duo’s first public performance.” – The Line Of Best Fit “Dissonant tones rub together like giant battleships scraping along one another as the duo of Ore alternate between passages of static drone and slow groans of “riff”.” – ATTN:Magazine “The music David Lynch would use if he was doing a Hovis advert.” – Mark Fell RYOKO AKAMA Ryoko Akama is a composer/sound artist, currently undertaking the second year of her PhD at the University of Huddersfield. She initiated her interest in electronics during a sound engineering course at SAE college in the late 90s. She enjoys DIY in order to realise compositions, sound installations and performance. An apprenticeship to Mrs. Yatotaka Kineie on Nagauta (a form of traditional Japanese music using the Shamisen, voice and percussion) since 2005 has influenced her artistic insight, from where she explores and researches Japanese ideology and the art forms of Noh, Teaism, Kabuki etc. The composition series `Tone of Orient`, presented at the FON festival, deals with the aesthetics of subtlety and delicate soundscapes of traditional instruments alongside electronics and objects. I hope to hear from you soon. Thanks for reading. All the best. Alain Some Noise C/O Alain Bolle PO BOX 43 1050 Brussels 5 Belgium [email protected] debloque.wordpress lesateliersclaus
