This was the first ever sunrise set at DISTRIKT and our first visit to DISTRIKT.
Together with everybody who was present, we had a musical flight that took off in pitch black darkness and soared into the rising orange sun. It was a unique experience and certainly one we’ll never forget. Thank you for dancing and sharing this moment together!

Kruder & Dorfmeister - DISTRIKT - Burning Man 2023

Italian producer and master synthesist Guido Zen has mesmerised my mind with his incredibly rich tapestry of sound since he appeared on the scene as Abul Mogard. He's got a particular sonic aesthetic that I tried [and failed] at replicating - something soft and slow-burning is rising and evolving into a velvety, faint and fuzzy vibration, perfectly sculpted to hold it all in one place. If there were just a bit too much reverb it all would be blurry, and if not enough, it would be just dry. And yet, in the hands of Guido, the frequency spectrum is dense and alive, "shaking kosmische synth fantasies into post-industrial ambience and blissful shoegaze memories." His most recent release with Rafael Anton Irisarri, for which I premiered "Place of Forever", was a fantastic example of all of the above, plus an amazing showcase of what a collaborative production may bring to the fans, combining Raf's distorted layers of bowed guitar with a myriad of perfectly saturated effects. On June 21st, Guido returns with yet another collaboration, this time with Berlin-based Dutch-Italian composer and sound designer Aimée Portioli, known as Grand River. Released via Caterina Barbieri's light-years imprint, this new work, which Guido admitted to me has taken him into new territories, is indeed yet another captivating dimension of a multi-faceted composition that truly unites both artists as one. Here, we are gifted with Aimée's strong sense of sensual organic soundscapes that develop into nearly overpowering tide crests, static washes, and serene expense, all carried by the widescreen cinematic tension and resolve in the hands of the fictitious synth factory worker. A truly enjoyable journey, which I hope you'll explore. I recommend turning up the volume a bit beyond your usual setting...

On October 11, 2024, at around 10.30 in the morning I had the pleasure of joining a group of researchers from the "Arctic Auditories" research project, based at the Arctic University in Tromsø, Norway, to visit the Polar Museum in Tromsø. This audio paper documents and reflects on the disturbing experience of visiting this museum. https://www.arcticauditories.com

Audio Paper

Kate Donovan: Listening beyond radio, listening beyond history

Vi møder allerførste gang samtidskunstner Rosa, da hun begejstret tror, en tilfældig mand på gaden har kaldt sin hund Fisse...Dette afsnit handler om sociale koder og social klasser og deres betydning for en kunstners succes. Rosa er vokset op i en lav social klasse, og vi kommer med til terapisamtale med hendes mangeårige terapeut, hvor hun søger forklaring på sin gigantiske præstationsangst. Og så præsenteres vi for begrebet prekær og får tal på hvilke sociale klasser der går på de svenske kunstakademier (Danmark mangler data).
