Sonntag 03.11.2024 tür 19:30 beginn 20:30 16,32€ via rausgegangen krautfuzz started out recording live improvisations at the ZONE studio, Berlin, in November 2022. With Imari Kokubo (drums), Dirk Dresselhaus (guitar/vocal) and Derek Shirley (bass) coming from an extended variety of musical backgrounds, including activities with the likes of faust, Vladislav Delay Quartet, die ANGEL, Schneider TM, Piratezombiedog, Monno, The Still, and Hi-Speed Dubbing, their premise is to boil down stylistic concepts to their essence by playing adventurous, energetic, and time-transcending music without a safety net, while paying extra attention to communication among each other as well as to the individual subconsciousness. An angular, futuristic tension runs through krautfuzz, spanning fuzzed-out neo-psych rock, abstract, heavily processed minimalism and pure noise. Its open fringes allow for the implementation of occasional, non-typical musical elements in the studio as well as surprise guest performers at live shows such as André Vida or J Mascis, who usually join in the second set of the evening.Special Guest: Organza RayOrganza Ray are Hilary Jeffery and Eleni Poulou, working together since the spring of 2022. Early improvised soundtracks to spontaneous storytelling have transformed into future folk songs. Their work includes collaborations with many other musicians and artists, live and in the studio, connecting pathways of knowledge through sound. Their primary form of artistic practice is a form of musical conversation which they have evolved together and with others over the past two years. Their music is contemporary in the real sense in that it connects to many different styles and forms of music. Both Jeffery and Poulou have an immense experience of playing music in many contexts from new music to rock, improvised music to art installations. This broad palette provides a deep creative source which they crystallise into their own distinct and recognisable music. They are actively discovering shimmering entrances and underwater arches. 400 years of long notes, open bags and dancing butterflies. Eleni Poulou has recorded and toured worldwide with many groups including The Fall and Shizuo, and is currently working with Wolfgang Seidel, Bomb Sniffing Dogs, and as ULR with James »Jeanette« Main. She hosts regular radio shows such as “Elope” on Cashmere Radio and “Kastra” on Movement Radio, and has appeared on Montezpress Radio, Rinse France, RTM FM, Noods Radio and NTS with Ono Tesla. Eleni also DJs, writes poetry, creates sound collages, composes music and makes zines with like minded artists such as Theresa Patzschke. She is one half of NOHE NOSHE together with Petr Step Kišur and is part of the Berlin art collective Honey Suckle Company. She formed Organza Ray with Hilary Jeffery in 2022, her most recent solo album is “Karta” which merges Greek Pontic music with other sounds and beats.

Hilary Jeffery has performed internationally in many settings including theatres, museums, jazz clubs, cathedrals, night clubs, festivals, dance studios, bars, cinemas, galleries, streets, forests and mountains. As well as composing, Hilary plays trumpet, trombone, tuba, piano, electronics, and sometimes sings. In addition to Organza Ray with Eleni Poulou, his current projects include the brass trio Zinc & Copper, Etude (Ensemble Treffen Um Die Ecke), an ensemble dedicated to the music of Philip Corner, and Mullet – a modern jazz band with Tobias Delius and Charly Birkenhauer. The sense of silent space he experienced during a journey to the Sahara Desert in 1990 is a central and sustaining influence on Hilary’s work.Live Visual by iLanIlan Katin is a Berlin based artist who currently makes non-figurative drawings, occasionally collaborates with musicians doing live visual performances, and sometimes ventures into the creation of installations.Eine Veranstaltung von amSTARt
