Bordone Ensemble
Das in Graz im Jahr 2019 gegründete BORDONE ENSEMBLE widmet sich den dunkleren der experimentellen Klänge, wie Noise, Ambient und Drones. Das Klangbild wird dominiert von analogen und digitalen Klangerzeugern, erweitert sich durch perkussive Elemente und amplifizierte traditionelle Instrumente. Die physikalische Komponente von Klang wird spürbar und sichtbar. Das Bordone Ensemble erklingt widerspenstig, aber im Endeffekt immer versöhnlich.

Petrolio
PETROLIO
was born in 2015 from the experiences of a musician already active on the metal, industrial and jazz / noise / punk scene. After his debut with the album “Di Cosa Si Nasce” in the spring of ’17, he compulsively toured Italy and Europe, with over 120 dates in festivals and venues. Gazoline, oil but also tar and exposed cables; these are the images that can be associated with the obscure mass proposed in its sound. Sometimes it seems incumbent and dangerous, in others it brings a strong sense of alienation, others still drag anyone into a deep fall.
