Hilary Jeffery & Zsolt Sőrés (Ahad) - Danube Blues Variations
Hilary Jeffery - trombone and live electronics - composer, writer, artist, and trombone magician based in Amsterdam and
Berlin, travelling worldwide.
The
Tromboscillator is not a specific instrument, it is an idea of the sound
which happens when a trombone mutates and melts into another virtual
world. It is the sound of an imaginative journey from interior worlds
transformed and transmitted via music: from the mind and breath -
through the trombone - to a microphone - into the computer or analogue
processor where the audio signal is fed through circuits which transform
the sound.
Zsolt
Sőrés (Ahad) - viola, electronics, home-made instruments, circuit bent
toys, lo-fi theramin, synths, selected percussions, effects, objects - hungarian
improvised/electroacoustic and noise musician, sound
artist. His main instrument is 5 string viola. Ahad’s
music characterised by formation strategy and immediate transitions, the use of
unstable acoustic systems and continuous sound layers, unique electronic
instruments.
