Jooklo Duo (Troglosound, Northern Spy – IT)
 
“Blowing minds all over the world since 2004 with hundreds of charming performances and some cult records, Jooklo Duo (Virginia Genta on reeds, flutes, piano, percussion and David Vanzan on drums) keeps spreading their powerful and uniquely vibrant sound, deeply rooted in free jazz avant-garde but heavily influenced by traditional folk music, and at the same time open to extreme sound experiments.
 
Over the years the perpetual research for new and challenging combinations has led Genta and Vanzan to form a large variety of ensembles and to collaborate with artists as Bill Nace, Chris Corsano, Thurston Moore, Dror Feiler, Dylan Nyoukis, Hartmut Geerken, Stanley J. Zappa, Makoto Kawabata, Mette Rasmussen and many others.
 
The duo has also been working with the Merce Cunningham Dance Company alongside John Paul Jones and Takehisa Kosugi, performing for “Nearly Ninety” in main theatres in Madrid and London, and has been a long time favourite of emblematic figures such as Henry Rollins, WFMU radio, Wire, etc…”

Bear Bones, Lay Low (Kraak, Sloow Tapes – VEN)
 
Hailing from Venezuela and based in Belgium since 2003, Bear Bones, Lay Low is the moniker Ernesto González uses to explore shifting psychedelic moods in electronic sound. Active since a teenager in the Belgian noise underground, González’s music has evolved from spontaneous bedroom noise/drone jams to colorful synthesizer tunes where library-esque vibes meet entrancing rhythms, dubby use of effects and plenty of freak outs.

Tochter aus E (Dresden – GER)
 
Tochter aus E is a one-person synth-pop band that combines punk, electronic and kitsch tendencies. The band loves cover versions and experiments. Whether it’s the use of church organs, sequencer basses or the beauty of the spoken word, the sound of squeaky chalk on a blackboard should not be missing. Tochter aus E has released an EP on the label “copyshop” in 2020 and recently self-released some of his latest works.
