Hi,
 
Hereby the playlist 275 of Sounds and Emotions.
  
"Experimental music for experimental people"  
 
This week with a live session at FM Brussel of Robert Curgenven solo and also
together with Hati
 
Robert Curgenven

Working with harmonics, textures and resonance as articulated not only through
instruments/objects, in space and place, but also in time and the dislocation of
the remote, Curgenven's sound explores slowly shifting layers in the fabric of
fields of perception. Creating vast landscapes from carefully detailed
recordings through to immersive resonances via deft manipulations of sound
pressure - his “old school“ background is evident in his working by hand
without a computer. Playing in a variety of contexts from pure field recordings
to instrumental harmonics and feedback - described by one audience member as
“like a punch in the face while elsewhere flowers bloomed.“
He has lived for much of the past eight years in Australia's Northern Territory,
working in small towns and remote locations in radio, health and the arts as
well as auspicing and directing Sounds Unusual - NT Festival for New Music.
Since the beginning of 2008 he has relocated to Europe, based in Berlin and
Milan.
Curgenven returned to performing live and improvised music in 2004 and has since
played at events throughout Australia and Europe, including Transmediale
(Berlin), Gallery for Contemporary Art (Leipzig), Headphone festival
(Stralsund), C/O Pop (Koln), Alice Springs Desert Festival, Darwin Festival,
Adelaide Fringe Festival, Electrofringe Festival (Newcastle), Tura New Music
Festival (Perth). He has toured Australia, Europe and Japan, including venues in
Sydney, Melbourne, Brisbane, Canberra, Frankfurt, Hamburg, Amsterdam, London,
Paris, Brussels and Tokyo.
He has performed with many Australian and international artists including Jason
Kahn (Sirr), Sumugan Sivanesan (Cronica Electronica), KK Null (Touch), Derek
Holzer (Umatic), Luc Ex (ex-The Ex), Katrin Bethge and Lousie Curham
(projections). He has supported artists such as Jazkamer, Rafael Toral, KTL
(Rehberg/O'Malley),Robin Fox, Richard Chartier and Marko Ciciliani. In addition
he has exhibited in Darwin, Sydney, Berlin, Koln, Joachimstal and Fremantle.
“…a gentle audio suspension of time. This is the kind of subtlety that
really works, becoming an almost total transference of realities.” 
– Furthernoise (UK), 2006
“Curgenven makes the point that sounds are fundamental to our perception of
the world and significant to notions of the familiar and our sensing of
otherness. … The complex micro and meso-structure of these field recordings
… included familiar sounds … as well as more all-encompassing sound events
evoking specific places.… Our ability to completely hear the complexities of a
place and time is intersected by memories of the familiar which are in turn
displaced and transformed.”
– Realtime (AUS), “surrealestate” concert review, 2007
 
Hati
 

Hati (Rafal Iwanski and Darek Wojtas) is a musical project from Poland (Torun)
based on acoustic instrument sounding. The instruments they use are acoustic,
namely traditional (ethnic) acoustic instruments and hand-made instruments or
objects not necessarily meant for creating music. They also use electronic
equipments. Key words for Hati are: trance, rhythm and sound. Hati connects a
person's interest in modern music, and ritual and meditation music from all over
the world.

"Recently, it has been the most interesting Polish group experimenting with
acoustic sounding. They create their own constructions and use the exotic
instrumentation in an intriguing way." (Jarecki)
