RADIO HITO
Days and nights, living in the clarity of mind and voice : Radio Hito’s compositions get stripped down to the bare elements while still retaining the solemn power of truth. The words of others gain meaning of their own through a contemplatively personal rendition whose simplicity manages to brim with endless poetic possibility. (GGR) The Radio Hito project strikes a balance between discreet virtuosity and an economy of means, featuring melodic lyricism and musical minimalism. It combines experimentation with permanence and effectiveness. Radio Hito is Zen My Nguyen on voice, Casio, piano, and keyboards. A navigator with multiple talents and home ports, she has been developing unique sound proposals for several years.
NBOJ TESPO
Takafumi Okada (Goat JP, Manisdron, The Noup) who resides in the city of Okayama, southern Japan, presents his new project Nboj Tespo for the first time in Europe. A 9-track LP will be released via South of North early September.
STILLUPPSTEYPA
Stilluppsteypa is an Icelandic experimental electronic group based in Reykjavík. Formed as a trio in the early 1990s, the group became a duo in 2002 and has since continued exploring abstract sound and collage-based composition. Their work spans multi-layered, often humorous experiments with electronics, tape, voice, and texture. With the duo’s latest release on Futura Resistenza, Schokolino Choco Loco, continues their exploration of chaotic structures and dense sonic layering.
