Lost In Ether | Podcast #92 | OPERANT

BIO:
OPERANT is the collaboration between Instruments Of Discipline founder Luna Vassarotti and August Skipper, the project exists in a unique realm, passing between power-electronics, industrial, techno and dark ambience, exploring themes of gender, body morphology and its ability to be altered through violent reconstruction, psychic and psychological manipulation, a crushed, robotic transcendence, where wounds in the body become gateways to other spaces; voice, synths and field recordings meld into rhythmic, ritualistic schism. OPERANT’s live shows are a collision between the body and machines, encompassing gestural noise, mic'd metal fragments, synths, drum machines and dual vocals distorted to the point of surreality. Since the 2016 release of 'ZK-II' & 2017's Zero Knowledge' OPERANT have been consistently touring, affirming their position as one of the most distinct and visceral new live electronic projects currently existing in Europe. After playing South Korea for Constant Value w/ Ancient Methods & Unhuman and touring Europe extensively,
playing alongside Blush_Response, Vatican Shadow, The Bug, Giant Swan, Schwefelgelb, An-i, Trepenaringsritualen & Brighter Death Now, 2018 has seen the release of new EP 'Harnessed To Flesh' on Instruments Of Discipline and a remix for Tomohiko Sagae on new Dutch label Strange Therapy.

"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".
