Event information

John Butcher & Ståle Liavik Solberg

Butcher is well known as a saxophonist who attempts to engage with the uniqueness of time and place. His music ranges through improvisation, his own compositions, multitracked pieces and explorations with feedback and unusual acoustics. Since the early 80s he has collaborated with hundreds of musicians – including Derek Bailey, Rhodri Davies, Andy Moor (EX), Phil Minton, Christian Marclay, Eddie Prevost, John Stevens’ SME, Gino Robair, Polwechsel, Mark Sanders, John Tilbury, and Okkyung Lee.

Ståle Liavik Solberg (drums/percussion) has established a base for himself as a central part of Oslo's thriving improvised music scene. Working with ensembles VCDC, Will it float? (with John Russell, Steve Beresford & John Edwards), Silva-Rasmussen-Solberg trio and in duos with Fred Lonberg-Holm and John Russell his open and attentive drumming has received many positive responses from musicians and audiences in both Europe and the USA.

Dhangsha

A one time student of legendary drummer John Stevens, "Dhangsha" aka Aniruddha Das is an electronic musician causing disruption at the interface of bass music and experimental sound.
Whilst adhering to the principles of minimalism, repetition and fragmentation, and through live improvisation, he instigates interactions between rhythm and noise with a resultant concept he describes as “Mutant Dancehall.”
He has performed in Colombia and in the UK and Europe, including with political electronic noise duo Yao Bobby and Simon Grab.

Systemet

Using their custom self-made synthesizers and octophonic sound system, Swedish collective Systemet create a unique take on noise and drone music.
