The performances this evening generate high-tension fields between the poles of structure and deconstruction – with ever increasing charge potential. That potential difference builds from Guido Möbius' loop improvisations, based on live sampling of varoius instruments, through Shenggy's cosmic vintage-noise to Michael Wertmüller's combination of precise and physically intense percussion combined with a digital soundtrack – until sparks start flying with the extreme noise layering of the trio Haino / Väisänen / Vainio. Between the rhythmic framework of the pulsating analogue synthesizers of the two Finns, previously known as Pan Sonic, and the harsh guitar improvisations of Japanese noise extremist Keiji Haino, lies absolute high voltage. Alongside lightning-like discharges, their sound tempest displays a highly complex inner life full of surprising and nuanced textures.
