Obi Blanche:
Experimental electronics, guitars and broken vocals from Finland. Dirty transistor distorted electronic beats and squealing no wave guitar destruction are mixed together in his personal take on melodic popular music. Building his DIY guitar (known as RAKE), with the guidance of Dutch inventor Yuri Landman, has been the culmination of the research towards his sound: perfectly imperfect and raw. Guitarist at Thomas Azier, formerly Anika (Stones Throw) and Norman Palm (City Slang).

Kristina Tica [Tiz-za]:
playing a self-built bass called BRAKE by Obi Blanche. She hails from the Belgrade underground and brings minimal, but heavy on the low-end bass lines mixed with her worn-out baritone voice. Her years of knowledge of a variety of music influences her playing, check her playlists.

Muri Anda:
guitar, saxophone, vocals, electronics/ antifascist-impro-noise-jazz-punk/ is a Linz-based artist, noise maker and bird nerd Muri Anda moves freely through underground ecologies of sound, conceptual work and improvised performance. Her work is grounded in dynamics and momentum, in the interaction between the organic and synthetic, in deconstruction and re-creation — a sonic cycle of chaos, order, and chaos again. Her performances are a visceral blend where free improvisation meets punk, meets obnoxious noise, always searching for new forms to emerge from the remains.

Reinhard Zach:
armed with an acoustic travel jazz drumkit, an electronic drum pad, and a monophonic synth he has proved to be able to provide tight rhythms to different styles and improv until the morning. He's able to lose himself behind the set and often connects to his animal side (The Muppets). In the evenings he plays melancholic songs on his viola and cello.
