Pre-Zoic Cellways

An Algae Generator (excerpt)

Johan van Kreij (1969) improvises and composes music. In 1994 he started his studies at Sonology, in the Royal Conservatory in The Hague, graduating in 1998. Frequently he performs his music, solo or with other musicians.

Sohrab Motabar (1984) is a composer from Tehran. With regards to states of suspension and dazzled motion his music resonates like a maze for the listener. He composes with algorithms, chaotic functions and non-standard synthesized sounds as a way to give rise to obscured dimensions and experimental modes of perceiving and listening. In 2018, Motabar graduated from the Institute of Sonology. In addition to this study he also actively collaborates in select projects with other artists and musicians.
