Lost In Ether | Origin Series | Chino

BIO:
Multi-disciplinary artist, whose work incorporates music production, live performance and graphic design. An avid mountaineer.
Having grown up in the post-industrial bleakness of 90’s Katowice, he was originally drawn to graffiti art, and soon enough to the music that often accompanied it at the time – classic electro and industrial.
These twin interests have fuelled his creative endeavours ever since, leading him on the one hand to study and eventually teach at the city’s Academy of Fine Arts, and on the other to explore sound and rhythm – from early experiments with desktop micro-sampling, through the discovery of analogue synthesis, all the way to immersing himself in the praxis of live performance, spanning full-impact peak-time sets, far out late night odysseys, and extended offbeat improvisations.
Deftly integrating a wide array of tools basic and arcane, vintage and state-of-the-art, Chino creates machine music par excellence, with a stark, brutalist property to it, but never without a spark of human soul shining through its dense layers. Even in the studio, he remains a live performer at heart, his output having a lot of the spontaneous intensity of his shows.
Chino is also one of the founders of Radar – originally a creditable (if short-lived) Kraków club, surviving as a collective and an event series, both crucial to the city’s underground scene. Apart from regular performances, and taking part in shaping policy, Chino is in charge of Radar’s visual aspect, where his penchant for converging music and art finds one of its most pronounced outlets.
He has been releasing on Recognition, Syntetyk, S1 Warsaw, Holger, Altered States Tapes and Shtum.
His musical exploits have taken him as far as Kazakhstan, Tajikistan, Ukraine, Russia, Israel, Georgia, Netherlands and Albania. And Germany.

Lost In Ether | Origin Series | Chino

"Ether, or æther, was the mysterious substance once thought to suffuse the universe and be the medium that propagated light (and radio waves once they were discovered). Before that, it was the material that suffused the realm of the Gods. So, to say that something is in the ether means that it is something being communicated from place to place; it has no precise location, just as a radio broadcast can be heard from many different places. "

* Lost In Ether 
Here you can find personal visions and expressions of alternative electronic music represented by artists invited to show their own ways to explore sounds which are embraced into one wave of sound - podcast recorded for "Lost in Ether".

Starting in the mid-nineties, there were a lot of short-lived off-locations in Dresden’s vibrant Drum’n’Bass-Scene which were perfect surroundings for those dark-mechanical tones. Carl Suspect dived deeply into this sometimes shady industrial setting. After he got from Broken Beat and Warp Electronica into Techno and especially early Kanzleramt Records, it were those parties which were groundbreaking for his own musical perception. He discovered that electronic music can only be intense, if it lets you forget about its originator, genre limits and conventions. Thus, to create this kind of listening experience is his first concern when he is playing dance music.

He’s also one of the Uncanny Valley-chiefs, managing not only the everyday work but especially the label’s visual presentation. Doing that, he always strives to realise the initial idea of the label;. to create a network for interaction between artists of different disciplines whereas it doesn’t matter if a record, a flyer or a video work will be the result of this interaction.

PL:
Producent i performer muzyczny, grafik. Miłośnik gór.
Dorastając w otoczeniu szarości Katowic lat 90-tych szybko uległ magnetyzmowi graffiti oraz muzyki, która często mu wówczas towarzyszyła – klasycznego electro i industrialu.
Te wczesne zainteresowania poprowadziły go w kierunku studiów na katowickiej ASP, gdzie obecnie pracuje, oraz ku eksperymentom z dźwiękiem – począwszy od wczesnych doświadczeń z mikro-samplingiem, poprzez odkrycie dla siebie syntezy analogowej, aż do głębokiego zanurzenia w praxis występów na żywo, obejmujących zarówno gwałtowne wybuchy technologicznej energii, jak i całonocne, wielowątkowe improwizacje. 
Pozostaje performerem również w studiu, nadając swoim nagraniom spontaniczny charakter występów na żywo. Stale podejmuje próby przekroczenia czystej narzędziowości swojego muzycznego machinarium tak, aby przemawiało jego własnym głosem – szorstkim i surowym, ale bezpośrednim i szczerym. 
Współtworzy wreszcie Radar – dawniej klub, obecnie kolektyw oraz cykl imprez – gdzie oprócz regularnych występów odpowiada za wizualny charakter projektu, zgodnie ze swoją filozofią pracy na styku muzyki i sztuki. 
Poza występami w całej Polsce odwiedził również Kazachstan, Tadżykistan, Ukrainę, Rosję, Gruzję, Izrael, Albanię oraz Niemcy. Jego dyskografia obejmuje wydawnictwa dla Recognition, S1 Warsaw, Holger, Altered States Tapes i Shtum.
