OREN AMBARCHI <http://www.orenambarchi.com>
Oren Ambarchi's works are hesitant and tense extended songforms located in
the cracks between several schools: modern electronics and processing;
laminal improvisation and minimalism; hushed, pensive songwriting; the
deceptive simplicity and temporal suspensions of composers such as Morton
Feldman and Alvin Lucier; and the physicality of rock music, slowed down
and stripped back to its bare bones. From the late 90's his guitar
abstraction and extended technique have led to a more personal and unique
sound-world incorporating a broader palette of instruments and
sensibilities. Ambarchi has performed and recorded with a diverse array of
artists such as Fennesz, Charlemagne Palestine, Sunn 0)), Thomas Brinkmann,
Keiji Haino, Alvin Lucier, John Zorn, Merzbow, Jim O'Rourke, Keith Rowe,
and many more. His latest release is Quixotism which was listed in The Wire
magazine's top 50 releases of 2014.

PITA <http://www.editionsmego.com>
PITA is the pseudonym of Editions Mego founder Peter Rehberg. Perceived as
one of the pioneers of synthetic music, PITA ushers now the next phase of
his sonic exploration, returning as a solo act after almost ten years of
silence. His approach hasn't changed much though – it's the ongoing search
of a radical maniac driving us to the shores of experimental electronics,
maybe best to be described as visceral synthesis, fishing in the ambient
depths of techno. He is fusing distorted electricity with abstract beat
patterns and glitches to some form of extreme computer music. As head of
the influential Editions Mego family of labels, he has released albums by
internationally renowned artists like Fennesz, Kevin Drumm, Emeralds,
Florian Hecker, Bernard Parmegiani, Russell Haswell, KTL, Akos Rozmann,
Donato Dozzy, Mark Fell...

BILL KOULIGAS <http://p-a-n.org>
Bill Kouligas is a musician, designer and dj. He is founder of the record
label PAN, which recalibrates perceptions of the avant-garde and electronic
dance music. Bill’s insistence on following his own path and passion has
won acclaim from thinkers, collectors, and dancers alike, and puts his
vision at the forefront of the electronic vanguard. After many years of
performing and producing experimental music under different aliases this
will be an all new live electronic set.
