KAKHOVKA HPP sound performance is telling a story of Kakhovka dam recklessly blown up by felonious occupants causing one of the biggest ecological catastrophes on the territory of Europe over the recent decades. This piece is trying to immerse you into a macabre soundscape just a few minutes before this unprecedented terrorist act on June 6. 

This experimental performance was created within 3 hours with the idea that we need to act now before it is too late. Water is flowing rapidly, it is flowing right now while you are reading this message. Every amount can help those who are still alive. Bank details are mentioned below:

This mix/performance was part of the MEG-AIMP / Réveil des Archives Sonores series: 
N.18 w/ @Cobeia (music curator of @ecoutesauvert) 11-05-23 / 18:30 - 20 in the Museum foyer

I was invited to do a vinyl DJ set at the Museum of Ethnology of Geneva (MEG) directly from their extensive archive material. 💫  

On that day, I was given access to dig in a Collection that belonged to Marco Botta, a foreign affairs Swiss diplomat who accumulated records (and newspapers) from all his trips around the World. 🌎 After his death, his family donated the vast Collection to the MEG. It contains folklore & modern music from all over the world up to the 80s. Several big shelves of vinyl from South America, Europe, Oceania, Africa... subdivided by countries. Around 5000 records, most in pristine condition! 

With the little time at my disposal, I decided to focus on Africa, because of my link to it, extensive travels around North and East Africa, my readings about the forging of the Portuguese 1st Global Empire circumventing Africa on their way to India, the many documentaries I saw about the continent, and my interest in its many cultures & music. 

For 4 hours, I looked through the collection, could hear the music on a record player, and made my selection. Right after, I played a 1 hour and a half set with the records in public. The set was recorded, filmed & broadcast on WAV33.

I had 2 turntables and a Pioneer mixer at my disposal. I did spontaneously a mixed set, at times overlapping tunes and using the effects, especially in the first half hour, which features mostly tribal music and otherworldly sounds before moving towards former Portuguese colonies and Islands music.   

I started with an imaginary Ancient Egypt track from a record of a Tutankhamun exhibition in Seattle from 1976, followed by an oud song from the Ottoman Period era by a well-known Egyptian Musician. Then went into Tuareg incursions, tribalistic music, Portuguese colonies (Cabo Verde, Angola...), circumvolution of Africa passing the Cape of Good Hope, all the way to the other side through the various lands (South Africa, Mozambique, Kenya, Ethiopia...) and Islands off the coast of Africa (Maurice, Comoros, Seychelles...) in the Indian Ocean as far as La Reunion and Zanzibar.

Thanks to all at MEG and everyone who was there to listen. 💙

This is the recorded result of which I am pretty proud! Enjoy!!! 😘

Réveil Archives Sonores #18: @Cobeia

For a 1h30 set, the guest artists take us on a musical journey through their personal selection of sound archives.

Cobeia is a DJ and record collector from Geneva. He is also the curator/organizer of Ecoutes au vert (EAV), a series of musical events that has been running since 2006. Over the years, he has organised many concerts and evenings of electro-acoustic, African, No Wave, Electronic, Disco and Experimental music, with talented local and international artists.

Curious to explore a wide range of styles, he unearths gems through long digging sessions. Traditional and modern African music, Outernational, Jazz, Afro-Funk, Post Punk, Disco, Cosmic, Italo, Wave, Electronic, Ambient, Experimental... are just some of the genres he loves. Music that often features a mix of instruments, synths and drum machines, with an analog sound in a computerized world. ;)

Cobeia has mixed at venues & festivals in Geneva, Switzerland, Berlin, Thailand and Vietnam.

A few years ago with Ecoutes au vert, he organized a concert by the traditional Kenyan group Ogoya Nengo & the Dodo Women's Choir Group in collaboration with the MEG.

The records played during this DJ set come from the Marco Botta collection, acquired by MEG in 2011. The collection comprises almost 5,000 LPs (33rpm), released on a multitude of labels from around the world.

Recorded on November 8th, 2023, at the Angewandte Interdisciplinary Lab (AIL) in Vienna.
This was my live solo debut, as part of the sound performance series Sonic Specters. Between Nostalgia and Anticipation.
I am grateful to AIL (@ailvienna) and Struma+Iodine (@strumandiodine) for making me a part of this beautiful program. Playing alongside Perila was a great experience, as was shaking the ceiling of the Kassenhalle.
My special thanks to Shilla, Li, Manuel, Paul, Utku and Viktoria.

Antediluvian Rocking Horse - "We Plot the Lost"

Formed 1994 St. Kilda, Australia, Antediluvian Rocking Horse was an audio project maintained by two core artists credited as DJ2 and DJ3. DJ2 is Paul Wain, a sculptor and graduate of the Victorian College of the Arts. DJ3 was Susan King (R.I.P), a collage artist, writer and anti-copyright advocate.  The project produced music and soundscapes that are entirely recycled from other recorded works.

The pair took further inspiration from Dada and Situationist texts and practises. ("Dada" is a term employed by French children to signify hobby horse. This translation, presumably, provided the spur for the project's name.)

The composer Ollie Olsen was also a member for recording sessions.

In loving memory to DJ3 Susan King ... we miss you.

Antediluvian Rocking Horse - 1st Radio Show 1994

Das Leipziger ambient noise-Duo Meeek / Onii vertont und transformiert Gedichte von Anika Beckwermert. Ihre Poetik sucht nach den organischen und inorganischen Durchlässigkeiten zwischen Worten, (Tier-)Stimmen, Körpern und Orten. Zwischen vielfach zerlegten Noise-Essenzen und effektierten Vocals, entsteht eine Kulisse für fließende Hörbilder von ökologischer Vergemeinschaftung und der Sehnsucht nach Begegnung: urbane Rhythmen und elementare Übergänge treffen auf eine Natur, die nicht da draußen ist, sondern Verbindung.

“BODIES OF WATER" (2022)
Live Composition by Cat Woywod
@ Lumbung Cinema, After Cinema # 3, documenta15


Sampling Audio from the Films screened during “After Cinema # 3” 
The live composition echoes the red thread of Azin Feizabadi’s Curation of the Film Programm, which honored Water as the fluid commonalities between humans and environments.

The Sound Publication is a synergy of the isolated Line-In recording and the Field Recording of the Cinema Space during the performance, adding a layer of chance and mutual co-creation with the audience.

Record of Open Session from Abdominal Marmalade

Abdominal Marmalade Agency // Open Session

In 2018, while preparing for the annual show at HFBK Hamburg, I accidentally discovered tonal spots on the wooden floor when something I dropped caused a resonant sound. Exploring further, I mapped these spots across the room and marked them with small stickers.

For the exhibition, I transformed the entire floor into an improvised instrument, like a large xylophone. During the performance, I responded spontaneously to the sounds and the audience, who stood on the resonating surface, becoming part of the piece. This interactive soundscape revealed the hidden musicality of everyday materials and space.

Fonico e ripresa audio Gianluca Cannizzo - PROMU

Durante la performance sonora ‘la Pace è stanca’ Paola Romoli Venturi ha inciso la parola PACE in 12 lingue su lastre, preparate con microfoni a contatto, producendo un suono che rappresenta la voce della pace stanca di fronte a tante guerre. Le lastre dopo aver ‘suonato’ sono state inchiostrate e passate al torchio creando un trittico di incisioni a puntasecca che visualizzano l’azione sonora.

QUADRO I La Pace è stanca__NOTE alla partitura QUADRO I lastra Ottone dimensione 30x65 cm spessore 8/10 preparata con 2 microfoni a contatto e amplificate Scrivo Pace in 12 lingue. Scrivo in modo disordinato e sovrapposto con font di dimensione diversa.
Come se in tanti luoghi e in tante lingue si chiedesse la pace creando un coro di voci che si sovrappongono disordinatamente, come la scrittura, creando un suono caotico e disordinato oltre che sofferente.
Strumenti: per scrivere/incidere uso bulini e ferri con punte diverse.

In questo quadro si rappresenta il sentimento della Pace che è stanca di aspettare che si fermino le guerre e si lamenta stanca di fronte a tante guerre.
LA  PACE              È                  STANCA
Riverbero lungo stanchezza_puntare sull’accento con un colpo_riverbero lungo lamento sofferenza

È un grido di attenzione e di dolore. Il suono deve essere fastidioso e deve crescere (se fosse possibile un crescendo sulla parola STANCA). 
Se possibile il suo riverbero dovrebbe restare oltre il mio gesto … cioè il suono dovrebbe persistere mentre sollevo la lastra e tolgo i microfoni e la porto a stampare … dovrebbe suonare con una nota fissa quando è sotto il torchio e poi nel silenzio porto lastra e stampa sul tavolo A e la performance si chiude nel silenzio. (altrimenti tutto il finale di stampa terza lastra è nel silenzio)

Aldarrax is an experimental music and sound art label based in Blanca, a small oasis in the arid regions of Murcia, in southern Spain. The main objective of the label is to connect people and territories through sound, to build community and to make space for experimental sound practices. Half-made music, new collaborations and unorthodox recording techniques are at the core of the label’s editorial line. 

Occasionally, artists are invited to create specific works, proposing collective improvisation sessions to generate spontaneous music. Field recording, soundscape composition and DIY instruments which incorporate local materials are encouraged. We resonate with peripheral, dissident and strange music. Aldarrax holds music as a ritual and animistic tool that strengthens bonds and works on bodies to create altered states of consciousness in autonomous zones. We are interested in repetitiveness, broken rhythms, trance-inducing sounds and durational practices that search for these other realms beyond the human.

bio

Ronald van der Meijs, born in Tilburg in 1966, is an Amsterdam-based artist known for his thought-provoking, site-specific installations. His work explores the delicate balance between nature and technology, using unpredictable natural processes to control mechanical structures, creating sound compositions that are constantly evolving.

A cum laude graduate of the AKV|St. Joost Academy of Fine Arts, Ronald has exhibited across Europe, Asia, and the Americas, with works featured at the Centraal Museum Utrecht, the Triennial New Media Art in National Art Museum Of China, Beijing and the Land Art Biennial in Mongolia. He’s been recognised with the Haarlem Vishal Art Prize and shortlist nominations for the prestigious Prix Ars Electronica and the Witteveen & Bos Art and Technology Prize.

His installations don’t just exist in galleries, they often take shape in public spaces, including a striking sculptural commission for Europol’s headquarters in The Hague. But what truly sets his work apart is his approach to sound. Through live performances, he amplifies the natural rhythms of his sculptures, blending organic acoustics with digital synthesis to create deep, immersive experiences.

At the core of his work lies a fundamental question: how do we relate to nature in an increasingly artificial world? Through exhibitions, interventions, and performances, Ronald invites us to pause, listen, and reconsider our connection to the environment.

A storyteller who does not know how to tell stories.
