Bio:
A solo project of Jeff Bagato (aka DJ Panic), Tone Ghosting features a unique homemade instrument he invented himself: playing vinyl LPs with small hacksaw & electronic FX, magnifying, modifying, & energizing the small scrapes & squeaks to create a complex musical vocabulary. The patented "Tone Ghosting process" includes looping these sounds, reformulating them in frenetic live dubs, & adding freeform vocal madness and intuitive drum machine percussion. Tone Ghosting creates a unique sonic universe somewhere between the attack of power electronics & the complex mind-body games of electronica & non-idiomatic free improvisation.
Anduin is the electronic solo project of Jonathan Lee (one third of the instrumental experimentalists Souvenir's Young America). Dark and hypnotic, Anduin's ambient tones provide a kaleidoscopic effect for the listener with it's multitude of layers. Field recordings mingle with a wide range of synths and effect soaked instruments to create menacing yet beautiful abstractions. A full length CD / LP is due out this summer.
In 2006 Kjetil Nernes and Stian Skagen started collaborating, their aim was to bring Nernes' noiserock band Årabrot further into the experimental Noise genre, looking for a unifying sonic expression between hard Melvins like riffing and Burzum wise structures, layered upon Skagen's drones and electronic soundscapes. The result became an Årabrot [concept.virus] ABS.NEG EP. As a side project, NERNES/SKAGEN started to develop and shape the sound of what was to come in future releases by the collaboration Årabrot [concept.virus]. Inspired by artists such as Glenn Branca, Tony Conrad and Pauline Oliveros, the song Ad undas took shape. On the West-coast of Norway, Ad undas is referred to as a state beyond. Out of memory. Where the self is controlled by the drift of primal human behavior. Unpredictable. Logical paradoxes. And this is what NERNES/SKAGEN wants to pull in under their control, a sound phenomenon, rising from the depths of minds beyond. A glimpse into a world forgotten, or not yet discovered. A sacrifice in the cave of darkness. Reaching for truth outside logic.
Insects With Tits is Kenneth Yates [HarmStryker/Caustic Castle/804noise/HzCollective] and Roger H. Smith [Chefkirk/804noise]. This collaborative project brings together two very different but complimentary approaches to improvised no-input style mixing and processing that results in a colorful spectrum of frequencies and harsh tones and low rumbling bass.
