*CM VON HAUSSWOLFF **| THE SONS OF GOD*

Carl Michael von Hausswolff is a Swedish artist (working with sound, light
and image), composer, curator, an expert on electronic voice phenomenon
pioneer Friedrich Jurgensson, producer, founder of the label Radium 226.5,
and the co-monarch of The Kingdoms of Elgaland-Vargaland. In his concerts a
very physical, almost brutal, side of Hausswolff’s aesthetics is blended
with a droned and polyfrequential beauty. The audience very often fall into
a form of trance, dosing away in their seats. Other times people
experiencing the events have expressed a “feeling that the flesh came off
the bones” due to the vibrations of the low frequencies used. Collaborators
include Graham Lewis, Jean-Louis Huhta, Pan sonic, Russell Haswell,
Zbigniew Karkowski, Erik Pauser, The Hafler Trio and John Duncan.

Leif Elggren and Kent Tankred have worked in the arts for over 20 years. In
1988 they formed the duo, The Sons of God (Guds Söner), a constellation
which moves freely between performance, music and the visual arts, and
whose productions often reach a point where traditional aesthetic
boundaries, limitations and concepts are eliminated. Everything contributes
to the whole and provides the basic structure for that inquisitive and
expansive spirit wh
ich is apparent in the Sons of God´s working method. Sound objects,
pre-recorded compositions, physically demanding movements, the voice, the
staged meetings and conditions, the objects: all of this constitutes the
foundation for an attempt to gain access to those hard rare moments when
daily life merges with the heroic nature of the inner self.

*THYMOLPHTHALEIN*

Anthony Pateras: prepared piano and analogue synthesizer
 Jérôme Noetinger: tape machines and electronics
Natasha Anderson: recorders, sensors and computer
Will Guthrie: drums
Clayton Thomas: double bass

Since 2009, *Thymolphthalein* has explored the grass between the cracks –
the fertile wasteland between structure and freedom. Taking their name from
a key ingredient in disappearing ink, game plans are established and
destroyed, paths cleared then obscured, musical links cemented and
ruptured. Electronic and acoustic personas rub together to produce a
special kind of tension between utopian pasts and and broken futures.

Anthony Pateras (piano and syntheszier) is a prolific, multi-facted
composer with an interest in analogue modular systems and extended piano.
Jérôme Noetinger (tape machines and electronics) is the originator of live
Revox techniques in an improvised context, developed over two decades with
his seminal audio-visual group Metamkine. Natasha Anderson (recorders,
sensors and computer) splices a performance history in Baroque music with
digital signal processing and a unique compositional focus on the uncanny.
Clayton Thomas (double bass) infuses his virtuosic bass technique and tone
with obsessions running though hip-hop, R&B and jazz, combined with a
dedication to playing any musician who seeks to challenge. Will Guthrie
(drums) is one of the few drummers who can boast a history in jazz,
flamenco, hip-hop and noise, widely regarded as one of the driving forces
of Australian free music. Having featured initially at the SWR New Jazz
Meeting in Baden-Baden, the group has go on to perform at major creative
music festivals throughout Europe and Australia. The quintet’s first album
Ni Maître Ni Marteau was released by Editions Mego in 2011.
