Both of them toured the whole world with their various bands (MW:
William Parker Trio, Alboth!, 16-17, W2; MP: steamboat switzerland,
sludge 2000 etc.)
Be open for an extraordinary intense high energy improv duo!
HEIFETZ wurde 2005 von Dr. Wu (Schlagzeug) und
Arrrna Conda (Gitarre), die auch den dauerhaften Kern des Projektes
bilden, als experimentelle Hardcore-Band in klassischer Besetzung
gegründet.
Die anfängliche Affinität zu "härteren Stilen" im Umfeld
des Crust ("Some Songs") wich einem Konzept der programmatisch /
improvisativen Klangkunst von zartem Ambient bis gezielter Kakophonie
("Vendetta Luftzirkulation"), welches - nach Aufbruch der
konventionellen Bandstruktur - stets durch ein Kollektiv
verschiedenster Gastmusiker unterstützt, geprägt und
erweitert wurde.
Die stilprägende Widersprüchlichkeit in der eigenen
Ästhetik wird durch den visuellen Rahmen (Katzenfutterdose,
CD-Covers, T- Shirts, Bühnenbild, etc), kontroverser Erarbeitung
von Themen und exhibitionistischer Vernebelung unterstrichen und
manifestiert.
Die Teilverdunkelung der einzelnen Akteure ist bewusst gewählt.
Dälek (pronounced 'Die-a-leck') is an alternative hip hop duo from
Newark, NJ. The group comprises MC Dälek (vocals) and the Oktopus
(production). They have often toured with artists from radically
different genres, such as Godflesh, Isis, Prince Paul, The Melvins, De
La Soul, and Lovage.
Dälek's music is dark, noisy and atmospheric, equally inspired by
industrial music like Einstürzende Neubauten, the layered noise of
My Bloody Valentine and the dense sound collages of Public Enemy. Their
sound is often constructed through sampling and a musical base atypical
of most hip-hop, making it difficult for people to classify their
sound. They have been described as trip-hop, glitch-hop, and metal-
shoegaze-hip-hop, as well as criticized for their broad range of sound.
(Wikipedia)
Unique blend of industrial strength hip-hop and avant rock...musically
somewhere between El-P, Cannibal Ox, Public Enemy, Techno Animal,
Swans, Anticon and My Bloody Valentine.
Darkness guaranteed!

After raising first interest in 2005 the commission of Klubski Maraton
took notice and Hexenbrutal played among other runners-up at the
Koncertni Maraton 2006 in KUD France Prešeren.
Then in the next year they confirmed their unconventional musical
concepts and added fresh ideas and a wider sonic spectrum. It basically
still was a slow and intense musical affair, which evolves between
drums, synthesizers, samplers and other electronic equipment and
vocals. The contrast between meditative ambient passages and thundering
assaults of controlled noise is liberating and surprises with its
reversing co-effect, where the noise works ambient and the ambience
hits your ears like a hammer.
Their non compromising musical position, which demands an increased
effort at digesting the sound, also offers refreshing and liberating
effects.

OvO is a project involving music and life.
Stefania Pedretti (also singer of Allun and solo performer aka ?Alos)
and Bruno Dorella (also performing in bands as Ronin and Bachi da
Pietra, former drummer of Wolfango and Bugo and manager of Bar La
Muerte Records), together in life as well, decided to create OvO in
order to go on playing and travel together. Actually, OvO is first of
all a tour band, a specific choice which made them moving throughout
Europe and North America from 2001 until present, with stops in Mexico
and Turkey, performing more than 500 concerts in 6 years.
Their first album “Assassine” (2001) and the second “Vae Victis” (2002)
as well were produced by Bar La Muerte and could boast the contribution
of guests and friends. After the splits with Rollerball and KK Null,
OvO definitively became a duo and the change was marked by the issue of
their third album “Cicatrici” (2004), a co-production of Bar La Muerte
and Ebria Records. In 2006 the work “Miastenia” was released under the
prominent American label Load Records, the crowning achievement of
several tours in the States.
After more tours in 2007, in 2008 they released a remix cd on
Blossoming Noise, and recorded their new album at Seizures Palace
studio in Brooklyn. It will be out in September on Load records.

Franz Fjödor is the pseudonym of Dutch writer and musician Wouter
Jaspers (Deurne, 1986). As Franz Fjödor, Jaspers flirts with The
Dark; with self-made instruments he creates pieces of soundart in
between droning soundscapes, depressed noise and dark folk. His style
varies to his mood: from psycho chants to punk screams, from guitar
oriented music to field recordings. Over the last year, Wouter played
over 140 shows all over Europe, he toured in Russia and released
several records on his label Vatican Analog from Tilburg, Netherlands.
Besides this he has been active working on his new book, to be
published in the fall of 2008. In october he will do a small worldtour
through Europe and The United States together with Staplerfahrer. Next
year he' ll tour Japan.
Besides his Franz Fjödor project Jaspers is also part of Meldy
Peaches and 4daladiez, both featured projects on Vatican Analog. He
also released cd's/tapes and several tracks on TIBproductions (NO),
Kourlyk Records (BE), Black Syndicate (NL), Goldsoundz (NO), Dirty
Demos (UK), Zeromoon (US) and Emerson, Lake and Headache (RU).
Sten Ove Toft is one of the leading artists in Norway's noise scene.
Apart from being an active solo artist, Toft has also validated himself
through projects like Ryfylke, Röyskatt, Waffelpung and others.
He's also worked with Lasse Marhaug, Anders Hana, Stian Westerhus,
Serena Maneesh and The Low Frequency In Stereo. At the end of 2007 Toft
released his solo album "Lit De Parade" on his own label Roggbif
Records. Ballade.no said it was a perfect cross between aforementioned
Lasse Marhaug´s infernal noise and Helge Sten a.k.a.
Deathprod´s dark, blurry soundscapes. This is reflected in Toft's
performances, which he's had a lot of lately. In 2007 alone he toured
the States for a month, the European continent for a month and Great
Britain for two weeks. In total, he's performed over 200 concerts and
has participated in over 50 releases, on labels all over the world.
