Dj Balli/Pure Vs Hati

Photobucket

dj-producer active in the field of “hard-electronics blaxploitation”, a contamination between black rhythm (jungle, hip-hop, ragga dance-hall) and experimental sounds from the tradition of European avant-garde (from musiquebrute to extreme noize), runs the Italian label “Sonic Belligeranza”
(http://belligeranza.c8.com)

dedicated to innovative breaks, his subdivision “+ Belligeranza” dedicated to noize and ideas and finally the other sub “- Belligeranza” dedicated to down-tempo extravaganza. Interested in every sort of improbable clash of genre and of vinyl infringement, he developed on a side a peculiar taste for Italian folklore-trashy music (folk-core?) to poison his intricate beats with sudden ultra-kinetik 4/4 escapes and on the other side advanced turntablist’s skills to enhance the “drama” of his live-performance. Apart from his various releases on his label and its subs, he has been producing audio for Peace Off, Cavage, Invasion Wreck Chords, Intellectual Violence, Antifaf, Amoeba, MusikMekanikCirkus, the Australia based Goulburn Poultry Fanciers Society and the Chinese Shanshui records and 532 Studio. Definitely THE WRONG NIGGA TO FUK WIZ

Pure
Pure generates dense abstract music that evokes connotations of dreams and abstract narrations. Since 1992 he released over 30 CDs and vinyls of solo and collaborative works in different styles under various pseudonyms on such labels as Mego (at), Staalplaat (nl), Praxis (ch), and his own labels dOc, LOOP, ATMOSFEAR, and SUB/VERSION (w/ Christoph Fringeli). He has played at festivals around Europe and North America, such as Argos (be), Club Transmediale (de), Mutek (ca), RGB v1 (fr), Sendandreceive (ca), Phonotaktik (usa).
Being one of the driving forces behind the first techno parties in Vienna in 1991, he departed from this style soon after to move on to further less explored and harsher fields of electronic dance music for the next years. In the second half of the nineties he did his next step by turning towards developing his own software instruments. He uses this knowledge since then for computer based live performances and teaching at various universities and media labs around europe. In 2002 he started TERMINALBEACH together with Erich Berger to play networked audio-visual live performances. They developed HEART CHAMBER ORCHESTRA; an audio-visual collaboration with 12 classical musicians of the Trondheim Sinfonietta.

The heartbeats of the musicians are used as source material to generate and control a score in real time that the musicians then perform and to generate a digital video representation as well. The debut performance of HCO took place in Trondheim in October 2006 initiated and produced by TEKS & Trondheim Electronic Arts Center. His early nineties dance music past caught up with him in 2005 when he started the successful WASTED Festival together with Jason Forrest. The festival, in collaboration with Berlin’s Club Transmediale, has seen 5 full episodes, and will be generating more small spin off parties in 2008.His latest studio album was released on November 1st 2008 on the Porto based label CRONICA ELECTRONICA.

Hati
HATI is an audiovisual project based on sound of ethnic instruments from all over the world and hand-made instruments or find objects. HATI connects a personal interest in modern improvised and acoustic music with ritual and meditation. The band was founded in 2001 by Rafal Iwanski and Dariusz Wojtas. They formed many psychedelic rock and industrial experimental musical projects since the beginning of the 90’. HATI have performed many concerts in Poland, Germany, Spain, Netherlands, Belgium, Ireland, Northern Ireland and on festivals, e.g.: Wroclaw Industrial Festival, Audio Art in Krakow, Festiwal w Krajobrazie in Inowlodz, Ambient Festival in Gorlice, Open’er Festival, Temple of Silence Festival. In 2006 members of HATI organized and performed 2 tours with Z’EV, one of the founders of ‘industrial’ the cultural movement. All HATI albums received very good reviews, their unusual magic sound and power was emphasized. Nowadays HATI performs as a duo: Rafal X-NAVI Iwanski and Rafal SABON Kolacki and ocasionally with Dariusz MOLOK Brzostek.

N.

Two empty tape-recorders, one connected to the other, no sound if not the distortion produced by the tape-recorders themselves in play/rec. On this recording of Nothing the modulations of vintage analogic effects: emptied frequencies, prenatal sounds without any sonic grain, audio for a flat electroencephalogram. The selection of the technical set-up through which sounds are produced is part of the N. (Nihilism, No, Not, Never, Nutella
) aesthetics. http://www.boringnoise.com/
