Radio Concrete #30 - Resonance Extra

An amalgamation of fragmented events with a focus on Arabic hauntology and Bedouin poetry; decomposing and recomposing the material to reveal latent features which persist regardless of this ongoing decontextualization, reallocating our gaze from meaning to contour.

Drool is one of the most influential and pivotal artist in the experimental music community in Israel.

He has collaborated with Blood Stereo, Adam Bohman, Fritz Welch, Eran Sachs, NicoTeen and many others artists and musicians.

Radio Concrete 41

New sound artwork composed during a blitz session in Studio Loos (Den Haag) by Leonie Roessler and Hagai Izenberg in November 2022.

A Mad Woman's Tale explores the surreal and often chaotic nature of daily life. Drawing on a range of everyday sounds, including a washing machine, a sewing instructional audio, and live radio sampling, the work invites the audience to immerse themselves in a world of familiar noises, creating their own interpretation of the piece.

Leonie Roessler is a composer and performer raised in Germany and the US, now based in The Hague, Netherlands. Leonie captures her environment with field recordings, which she uses for radio pieces, sound installations, and instrumental compositions. 

She runs the radio branch of Studio LOOS in The Hague. Her works have been released through Musica Dispersa (Spain/UK), and Noise á Noise (Iran) and have been physically archived in the British Library.
