Konnekt is honoured to welcome the four-piano duo of the legendary Charlemagne Palestine and Belgian pianist Seppe Gebruers for an exceptional evening at the Fonderie Kugler. These two musicians from very different backgrounds have come together around their passion for playing on several pianos and unusual tunings. Palestine, a minimalist maximalist, and Gebruers, a jazzman who breaks conventions. Two pianos each for the 'shaman' and the 'teacher', tuned classically and a quarter-tone apart respectively. A magical, breathtaking immersion in sound.

A participative sound experience during a grape-picking session

Konnekt invites its audience to take part in a moment of listening, in a pro-active situation during a grape-picking session.

The three artists, Antoine Läng (voice and accessories), Anouck Genthon (violin) and Romane Chantre (percussion), offer an acoustic performance that invites you to discover the vineyards and the work of harvesting through sound. This creation leads to attentive listening to the environment, natural sounds, coming from machines or produced by the gestures of work. It stages and in sound the relationship that a winegrower maintains with nature in his activity, as well as the repetition of the gesture, omnipresent in his work.


Two sessions: 10:15 a.m. to 12:15 p.m. and 1:15 p.m. to 3:15 p.m.

For this concert at Le Groove, Matmos will present music from their latest album Regards / Ukłony dla Bogusław Schaeffer ("Regards / Homage to Bogusław Schaeffer") recently released on the Thrill Jokey label. A playful and facetious fusion of scholarly music and electronic pop, all the sounds here come from samples the duo created from the electroacoustic works Polish composer Bogusław Schaeffer made at the influential Experimental Studio of Polish Radio in the 1960s and 1970s.

Known for their captivating and mesmerising live performances, we can't wait to see what the duo has in store for their first appearance in Switzerland in 15 years. Their accomplice, the programmer and musician Jeff Carey, will be in charge of the broadcast.

A rich evening in prospect as there will also be, in addition to Matmos: Owelle (electronic setup), Nicolas Field/Jeff Carey/Thomas Florin (hybrid electronic-acoustic trio) and HTN-Brainwaves (DJ set).

The Collectif Nocturne with support from Konnekt present a new event that honours this emerging and futuristic scene that mixes jazz and electronic music.
If each musical genre is a language, the artists of this evening are certainly polyglot. The experiments of Zerolex Trio, equipped with a saxophone, a double bass and electronic machines. Then the connivance of the synths and drums of the Belgian duo Lander & Adriaan. An irresistible call to dance!


Production: Konnekt x Collectif Nocturne


𝗟𝗮𝗻𝗱𝗲𝗿 & 𝗔𝗱𝗿𝗶𝗮𝗮𝗻
Lander & Adriaan is a Belgian duo consisting of drummer Lander Gyselinck (Stuff.,Beraadgeslagen,LABtrio) and Adriaan Van de Velde (Pomrad, Mauro Pawlowski, J. Bernardt).
Their shared penchant for digital synths and 90s alternative dance brought them together for the first lockdown in 2020 for some fiery jams. After a series of successful gigs, they recorded an album in the summer of 2021, which was released in the spring of 2022.
They mix, merge and distort Chicago juke, Detroit techno, UK Funky and rave music with the diversity of jazz; they take you into a world of unabashed pleasure, assumed weirdness and pure excitement. They call it 'Post Nudism Rave'. Others call it free rave or sophisticated rave. What is certain is that their music creates an imaginary world that has as many fairy meadows populated by goblins as it does dark underground tunnels filled with slimy aliens and stinking trolls. You'll experience the quantum chills of interplanetary ambient drones, soft frenetic percussion, sweet pulpy melodies, soggy bass lines, all delicately woven into a raw, oozing music that calls for dancing!


𝗭𝗲𝗿𝗼𝗹𝗲𝘅 𝗧𝗿𝗶𝗼

Already noticed for his first records on Eklektik and Cascade Records, Zerolex has also proven himself as a band with Cotton Claw (Laureate Fair, Prix Chorus and Inoui PdB, Opération Iceberg, Eurosonic). Since the EP "Touché-Coulé" in 2019, Zerolex has been exploring a new playground, and has taken the form of a trio, with Claudio Ibarra on double bass and Chromé, on saxophone and composition, now accompanying him on stage.
With its jazz and electronic influences, Zerolex now leaves more room for harmonies and choirs, combining the warmth of analogue synths with the organic sounds of traditional instruments. The release of the single "Le Temple / Le Nectar" on BMM Records in 2021 marks the tenth year of activity for the Bisontin producer, who is always eager to take new directions.

Re-Ghoster Extended - Mill

arrow-right Read more

Re-Ghoster grew out of a chance encounter between Anglo-Swiss percussionist Nicolas Field, Italian tape & electronics wizard Valerio Tricoli and Swiss pianist Thomas Florin in Geneva in 2018. They quickly discovered a like-minded longing to experiment and distort sound textures in new ways, to explore compositional concepts by using improvisation and the impulse of the moment. They decided to let their strong personalities clash. Re-Ghoster was born and as a trio, they released a first album – ‘Or Not All’ - in 2019.


Embracing Re-Ghoster as a constant evolutionary process and always on the lookout to extend the potential and creativity of the project, the trio invited American trumpeter Nate Wooley and Anglo-American vocalist Fritz Welch - two major artists of the experimental scene - to join them in 2021 on the occasion of a tour in Switzerland and the UK with venues like Cave12 in Genève and Café OTO in London. This quintet format was baptized Re-Ghoster Extended. In 2023, Re-Ghoster Extended will record a new album and they are invited by Swiss Festival Archipel for a special creation.


To conclude their reunion at Festival Archipel, the quintet – with Jérôme Noetinger replacing Valerio Tricoli for this occasion - will perform exclusively in MILL on Saturday, 8 April 2023. Expect acoustic instruments being fed to tape, magnetised, digested, re-eaten, reworked and regurgitated again by the machine. Expect ghostly bursts and roars emerging from nothingness. Expect chirps and shrills exploding in tension with each other. Expect a quest into the depths of sound by a quintet of extraordinary experimentalists.

Dreaming with the lights on (2023) - Commissioned by Archipel Festival

Improvisation from Extended-Impressions


On the border between written music and improvisation, Re-Ghoster deploys its sounds on a double trajectory, that of acoustic instruments put under tension in a medium replicated by that of a tape recorder, an imperfect echo whose voice whispers and remembers these past moments. A five-person conversation crackles and blows, from which one struggles to distinguish what is haunting and what is haunted.

This concert is also an opportunity to discover Nicolas Field's new piece, Dreaming with the light on, commissioned by the Archipel festival.

"Spatial Practices and Compositional Approaches - Introduction to the Artistic Work with the Icosahedron Loudspeaker IKO".

Gerriet K. Sharma

The workshop will provide an introduction to the functionalities and spatial-compositional possibilities of the IKO loudspeaker.
This instrument bundles sound beams to such an extent that reflecting surfaces can be used as virtual sound sources.
This allows a completely different orchestration and excitation of the architectural space than with conventional multi-channel loudspeaker systems.
By this IKO can produce sculptural sound entities that can hardly be described with the conventional and traditional vocabularies of music and sound composition.

Furthermore, we will discuss and experience the differences between concepts of absolute and relative spaces in compositional practices.
Hence, in regard to the field of so-called spatial music and spatialisation of music aesthetic concepts and artistic utopia will be addressed and compared with scientific interests, academic agendas, and constraints of engineering.
The workshop will address questions of improvisation within spatial audio environments, the situation of the body of the performer in regard to AR and VR phenomena, architecture as a critical part of compositional practices, questions of instrumentality, sculpturally and verbalisation in loudspeaker environments.

www.gksh.net


The IEM icosahedron loudspeaker is one of currently five comparable loudspeaker systems in the world, originally developed for acoustic measurements or holographic sound projections in the laboratory.

Successive research into the apparatus setup for artistic purposes had been pursued at the Institute of Electronic Music and Acoustics (IEM) Graz by a working group of four engineers and composer Gerriet K. Sharma between 2014 and 2019.
"Orchestrating Space by Icosahedral Loudspeaker" (OSIL) was a unique artistic research project and was supported by the Austrian Research Fund (FWF) under an excellence funding program (PEEK).
By means of beamforming, the loudspeaker is able to project sound beams in different directions and to generate, superimpose, and stagger fields with the wall reflections, which create three-dimensional auditory impressions in perception.
Unlike conventional room sound reinforcement systems for concert halls, the loudspeaker works with reflective surfaces, orchestrates the room from a central point and can be adapted to different room situations.

Schedule : 10h-13h, 14h-17h for the 2 days

Fee: CHF 100.-

CtrlKey, play me ! Geneva

arrow-right Read more

Konnekt is constantly looking for new ways to improve the tools available to musicians and sound artists. Konnekt has recently and enthusiastically initiated the CtrlKey electronic instrument development project, in partnership with sound artist and developer Jeff Carey. This tool is an extension for acoustic instruments such as piano and percussion, reacting to the slightest sound changes produced by the instrumentalists and then generating a whole range of sounds and textures. The system uses the SuperCollider program, which processes the sound picked up by contact microphones, and transforms it in different ways.
CtrlKey thus puts electronics in direct contact with the instrumental gesture. The logical continuation of this project is the application of this instrument in various musical contexts. CtrlKey will follow a long-term development, notably with a networking system for remote use.

CtrlKey, play me! will take the form of a double concert presenting a working stage of the CtrlKey project, following a working residency.

  1. CtrlKey (USA-CH):
  • Jeff Carey (electronics)
  • Thomas Florin (piano and clavichord) and - Nicolas Field (drums and electronics)

Re–Ghoster is a thrilling trio comprised of pianist Thomas Florin, drummer Nicolas Field and the fascinating Revox monster Valerio Tricoli. The acoustic instruments are fed to tape, magnetised, digested, re-eaten, reworked and regurgitated again by the machine.
The result are ghostly bursts & roars emerging from nothingness. Roaring stridences, shrieks chirps & shrills explode all in tension with each other.
For the release tour of the new record "Or not all”, Re–Ghoster invites trumpeter Nate Wooley (USA) for a quest - as mystical as it is turbulent - into the depths of sound. This is a re-listening of the acoustic sounds, partly sieved by the electronics in a hybrid spatial continuum. A frictional, nervous symbiosis, full of jolts, but also abrasive and/or restrained fluidity. A very exciting interaction at all times, looking towards possible futures filled with low masses, giving birth to dense sonic textures shifting and/or overplayed in a ghostly union.

Geneva Based pianist Thomas Florin seeks through this solo album a hybrid between minimalist music and avant-garde jazz.

« (...) Here he is again, always alone, with his only piano (...) And here the pleasure is quite intense to hear this proposal, certainly much wiser than the previous one, but tinged with a diversion through parallel universes. On a par with these improvisers masters, but never quite returned from his more extreme previous experiences.What remains here of Florin's first trip is what he experimented with expressly: to make the instrument speak for itself, to make it resonate freely, to explore its timbres. » Jacques Mühlethaler
