Catatonic Leisure Alone

Catatonic Leisure Alone is an electronics solo project of Anton Ponomarev, reed/brass instruments and electronics musician based in Zurich (CH).
Music of CLA balances on the edge of noise, electroacoustics improvisation and abstract sound sculptures.

“Catatonic Leisure Alone” – power electronics solo project of Anton Ponomarev (P/O Massacre, Teufelskeller, Augenblick, Dodsdromen, Radiant Haze, Sanscreed kanon, etc.)
It is an invitation to witness the convergence of chaos and intricate engineering, where the unpredictable dance of frequencies collides with deliberate sonic architecture. Imagine being swept away by the erratic beats of a rebellious heartbeat, only to be expertly reconstructed into a symphony of organized pandemonium. Step into the realm where sound is not just heard but felt, where chaos is not feared but embraced!

I want to explore a sonic world where sounds move between reality and the surreal. Playing and communicating with my analog cassette tapes, my flutes and exploring some digital tones, I weave complex sonic textures that reveal perhaps anecdotes, stories or hidden worlds, in this performance I would like to reflect both my own personal memories as well as some memories that appear in the machines themselves, somewhat dreamlike, somewhat lucid spaces. Inspired by my research on sound machines and their evolving and imperfect nature, this solo highlights how tape recorders, radios and some toys and objects -whether fully functional or worn out by time- reveal their materiality, personality and unique characteristics.
