Marsen Jules

Marsen Jules is one of the aliases for the musical output of Martin Juhls from Dortmund/Germany. As Marsen Jules he concerns himself with compression of atmosphere and emotion in the most abstract sense, based on carefully selected sound fragments and quotations. Maybe one could think of ordinary sampling, but Marsen Jules processes another step further. Neither the sampled sound nor the Instrument itself is centered in his work, actually its the particular moment, where the authenticity...

Lionel Marchetti

Lionel Marchetti was born in France in 1967. His interest in music resides in the qualities of sound. He is one of a handful of artists who in the mid-to-late 1990s took electroacoustic music out of academic studios and into the free improvisation ring. A scholar who worked at the CFMI (Lyon) and GRM (Paris) studios and published a book on acousmatic composer Michel Chion, Marchetti developed a set-up of microphones and loudspeakers he uses on stage along with tape recorders, prepared CDs, motors and radios.

Drift (Oxford, UK)

Drift is a three piece band that features the iridescent voice of Comus vocalist Bobbie Watson, the sometimes shimmering, frequently incandescent guitar work of Rich Hamel, and the chest-collapsing lo-bass of Comus' woodwind player & percussionist Jon Seagroatt.
Their fractured songs dialogue and take issue with laptop-fired loops of percussion and electronica. A number of their songs appear on Bobbie Watson's 'Off The Leafy Pathway' album, available from Reverb Worship at http://www.reverbworship.com.

joseph scott

Fascinated with texture, modified timbres and ethereal stasis, joseph scott is a musician whose output consists of lo-fi live improvised drone-based music and, more recently, mid-fi songs informed by the aforementioned more avant-garde works. He has a rather idiosyncratic emphasis on creating an ecstatic but emotionally ambiguous musical moment and then attempting to sustain it with as little deviation from the work's 'musical heart' as possible. www.myspace.com/blossomandsurrender
