DuChamp is an Italian scientist, musician and curator based in Berlin, religiously devoted to drone. Drone is related to a precise childhood memory: the sound of the hair dryer, that her mother used to fix her hair. That was the sound of care, bliss, and infinite love. She made her debut as solo on Aug 22 2010, and performed several time across Europe and in the US West Coast. Since 2017, DuChamp started to incorporate real field recordings, related to her personal memory, into her drone compositions, by adding layers of sounds and noise in attempt to recreate some kind of apophonias. Her debut album “NAR” has been released in 2013 through the italian cult label Boring Machines. In 2015 the split “Sculpture” with French sound artist Felicia Atkinson was released through Idiosyncratics. In 2016 and 2017 Full Body Massage records released that tapes “Nectere” and the following year “A Blazing World”. Her new album “The Wild Joy” will be released in 2025 by Torto Edition, Ramble Records and Atena Records.

Die Kurdisch-kanadische Pianistin, Komponistin und Klangkünstlerin Kasho Chualan und Wiener-Ami-Gitarrist Eric Arn improvisieren einen herbstlichen Klangsturm aus dem Nichts.

Mlondiwethu Dubazane is a South African creative sound-maker, spontaneous spirit-music practitioner, sonic-dramatist and improviser. His sonic vision cultivates a sensitivity to the unveiling of the heart, in sound and in practice. Each day, he listens to the space behind the eyes, behind the gut, behind the pelvis, behind the heart. His music is an offering to the space of inspiration that thrums within us all. For his offering, Mlondiwethu will be sourcing inspiration from the movements of Word, Rhythm and Spirit; to create a performative and sonic encounter titled in the voices of many. Attentively listening to the enthusiasm and refuge that each vibration, note, and sound carries and offers, in the voices of many, is an improvisation toward an amplification of the subtle, unseen, and often-unspoken energies that thrum within us.
