The featured guest tonight is GOLDEN DISKÓ SHIP (Monika Enterprise – Berlin)
golden diskó ship is a one girl band.
since she moved to berlin, the 28 year old sound sculptress has quickly become renowned for her imaginative songscapes. she effortlessly shifts between fragile moments of sadness and drama, crunchy distortion and squealing sounds that suggest horrific drum machine abuse, only to swerve back and reveal the captivating melodies that had been perpetually lurking in the dark.
on board you will find a kreisi mix of acoustic instruments and mini synthies, torn up computer beats and sad sounds, a personable guitar style, layered vocals and a novel use of found objects. in combination with her selfmade video projections, her eccentric version of sonic anarchy transports you into a unique world of chaos made from beauty, or the other way around.
firmly rooted in the DIY tradition, golden diskó ship´s split LP on Monika Enterprise (2010) was proceeded by a number of hand made self releases, which brought her considerable attention from the press, including comparisons to Coco Rosie and Fourtet. ‘the “organically cluttered singersongwriter” lists her influences as including restlessness, chocolate, first takes, peaceful hangovers, lakes, trees, streets, bad weather, swimming pools, mistuned guitars and iceland.’

PRESS
“a chaotic, organic and original music world.”
“more of an independent media production centre than a band, with just one girl on stage, and at times I felt like I was trapped in a weathervane that was being attacked by broken stones.”
“the musical translation of chaos theory”
“you could call it Folktronica but then you could think up something much more inventive yourself, like, ‘Beautiful and insane; Like an autistic child left alone in a cave with a book on fairies, a camp fire, a woolly jumper and some toy instruments’.

Tonight’s featured guest is Gry
Gry was born in Denmark in 1975, and grew up in Denmark, Norway and Mozambique. For the past 20 years she has been writing, composing and performing sound art, opera, radio plays, acapella, electronic and pop music. Her unique way of singing and using her voice include recording and looping of words, rhythms, and tones, creating experimental and melodic compositions. Gry’s text work has its own poetic logic; in her idiosyncratic way she deals with love, life, and death in both Danish and English, in some songs even with these and many other languages mixed together. In her live performances each composition is build up from scratch leaving the artist naked for the audience who can follow the act of creation while it happens. With her outstanding voice, exceptional originality and beauty, Gry is embodying the spectrum from dramatic pop to crazy avant-garde in a way that makes her a candidate for one of the most stunning contemporary divas.
In the beginning of the 90’s Gry founded the the sound-art group Æter with Jacob Kirkegaard and they started their first City Scape Europe, capturing the sounds, images and words from European metropoles and made compositions and concerts with the material. Gry then met the legendary drummer FM Einheit (Einstürzende Neubauten) and they started the band GRY, creating hits such as Princes crocodile and touring both Europe and USA. In 2000 Gry started a master study at the Academy of Media Arts in Cologne and graduated in 2006 during the study time She founded the group The Loverz. She then moved to Berlin to start her own label, Present Records, and in In 2008 Gry released her first solo album, “Anima”. Anima is the first EP in he trilogy “X-ident” which will all be released on Present Records.

Tonight’s featured guest is Jasmina Maschina (Australia – Staubgold/Monika Enterprise)
Jasmina Maschina’s folk soundscapes transport you into her unique world of electronics and song.
Firmly rooted in experimental electronics with an equal dedication to song, composition and free, improvised music, Jasmina Maschina melds the most simple and innocent chord progressions of time-honoured folk music with breathtakingly beautiful noise to create the sensation of tingling on both the skin and mind.
Based on her personal style of gentle guitar picking and a noisenik’s attraction to repetition, drone and inventiveness, her songs are capable at any moment of erupting into intoxicating noise, seducing you into her otherworldly sounds.
Jasmina recorded and produced her acclaimed debut solo album, ‘The Demolition Series’, in 2008, for the German label Staubgold. Following extensive touring throughout Europe, China and Australia in 2010,
Jasmina Maschina released the inaugural ‘City Splits: #1 Berlin’ with golden diskó ship on Gudrun Gut’s label Monika Enterprise.
Live, Jasmina teams up with multi instrumentalist Theresa Stroetges (golden diskó ship) to perform hauntingly beautiful variations of her songs. Fragile layers of sound swirl magnificently around your ears binding the overpass between sensuality and stoicism, ephemera and the sublime, hesitation and intoxication.

PRESS
‘Superb debut album of beautiful folk guitar music from Berlin based Maschina, better known perhaps as one half of experimental electronic outfit Minit. This is straight-ahead folk filtered through an imaginative electro-prism that knocks Cat Power into a cocked hat.’
- Dominic Al-Badri – Kansai Time Out
‘Really and truly there are no low points or filler tracks here, the songs, changing pace and instrumental colouring through out are always consistent in songwriting flare, harmonic homing and rich, accomplished and soothing playing. I can see this appealing to anyone and everyone and not just folk fans as the Demolition Series is a collection of great tuneful, well written and conceived tracks, performed with great passion, feeling and depth. One of the high points of this year and surly the debut album of the year’
- Roger Batty, Musique Machine
‘As the album develops, Maschina’s history with Minit manifests itself; that group’s affinity for repetition, drone, and alterations of a pygmy sort informs and strengthens these songs. Inasmuch as these inclinations refresh the timbral palette, they also affirm a consistency of tone that pays off handsomely. In setting off on this path and discovering something so deeply personal, Maschina has accessed a sublime form that is well beyond herself.’

Frank Bretschneider + Yannick Franck
Frank Bretschneider works as a musician, composer and video artist in Berlin. His work is known for precise sound placement, complex, interwoven rhythmic structures and its minimal, flowing approach. Described as abstract analogue pointillism, ambience for spaceports, or hypnotic echochamber pulsebeat, Bretschneider’s subtle and detailed music is echoed by his visuals: perfectly translated realizations of the qualities found in music within visual phenomena.
Yannick Franck (b. 1981, Liège, Belgium) is a sound and visual artist. He lives and works in Gent, Belgium. He runs the independent label Idiosyncratics Records. He is the founder of electroacoustic project Y.E.R.M.O. (Venice Biennial 2009, Pavilion of Luxembourg) in which he’s active since 2005 with guitarist Xavier Dubois and drummer Jason Van Gulick.
Emerging Artists Commission: Ben Vida — Piece for Difference Tones (interrupted) & (computer controlled) Analog Sound Objects
The second of ISSUE’s 2011 Emerging Artists Commissions, awarded to composer, improviser, and multi-instrumentalist Ben Vida, features Vida’s Piece for Difference Tones (interrupted) & (computer controlled) Analog Sound Objects. The new work focuses on the intersections between analog and digital sound synthesis systems. These systems produce what Vida calls “non-representational sound objects,” which are generated in the inner ear rather than from an outside source. It is in these moments, when the inner ear-activating difference tones are punctured by analog exclamations, that a deeper spatialization is revealed and the listener’s aural perception is expanded.

Tonight’s featured guest are Bernd Klug and Berangere Maximin
1) Bernd Klug, double bass (Vienna, Austria)
Currently residing in Vienna, Klug works as a double bass player in a wide variety of contemporary contexts with a focus on improvisation.
Projects and collaborations with: Meaghan Burke (rash), Danielle Dahl, Mimu, önczkekvist, Burkhard Stangl, Le Cowboy (Burke/Schweighart/Klug), John Butcher, ctrl, Franz Hautzinger, Ritornell, Sixtus Preiss and many others.
Klug is a charter member of the Viennese improvisation collective “snim”.
His current compositional cycle “sine tempore” is a series of works which experiments with sound designs in non-dramatic contexts.
http://www.myspace.com/beklug
statement_________________________________________________
Klug presents himself and his double bass as a live sound installation, focusing on the frequencies of both instrument and room and the feedback thereof. The interaction of instrument and space becomes form and the interference of the human elements produces structure. Attention shapes intention; angst becomes aesthetic.
http://www.share.dj/share/event_info.php?eventID=734
2) Berangere Maximin
Berangere Maximin spent her childhood in the remote French colonial island of Reunion in the Indian Ocean and moved to France at the age of fifteen. Performing first as a singer, she later studied electroacoustic music with the composer Denis Dufour at the Perpignan Conservatoire. Her first professional experiences occurred in Paris, and in 2002 she moved there permanently.
As a composer, she is most interested in preserving the spirit of live music in the studio, a passion passed on to her from her friends —guitarists and singers in rock and world music bands. Working out of her own Home Sweet Home Studio, she shoots sounds in a dark silent room, records soundscapes and acoustic sounds, plays with sampling, digital effects, performs on a variety of objects and sings. Her attraction to light and powerful sounds gives her work a very unique quality.
After the release of her debut album “Tant Que Les heures Passent” (As Long As The Hours Go By) on Tzadik Records in September 2008, Berangere Maximin performed her solo concert ‘Stuck in a Nasty Little Film’ for the first time that fall, in Paris (Mains d’oeuvres) and New York City (Roulette, The Stone). This series of pieces for live voice and electronics has continued to develop on the road, in numerous festivals and musical events in Europe.
‘Working out of her own Home Sweet Home Studio in Paris, she creates landscapes that pull you in and hold your attention with a keen sense of detail and subtle sense of surprise. A seductive and beautiful debut CD from one of the most personal and passionate new voices in electroacoustic music.’
John Zorn.

Mia Zabelka’s “M”
“M,” Mia Zabelka‘s new solo project, focuses on the development of experimental improvisational techniques with the voice and violin, a process she calls “automatic playing.” She explores the relationships among the body, gesture, sound, machines and space using live electronics to expand the electroacoustic sonic spectrum. She creates musical imagery through an ongoing process of experimentation and physical immediacy resulting in melodic complexity and simultaneous transparency characteristic of her sonic language.
