Banabila & Van Geel Live @ AudioArt, Kraków 2016

MEAKULTURA: Michel Banabila i Oene van Geel z Rotterdamu zaprezentowali łagodne połączenie brzmienia altówki i elektroniki w klimatycznej szacie orientu. Akcydentalnie pojawiające się arabskie melodie ludowe, nadawały kompozycji enigmatyczny charakter, a jej poszczególne fragmenty nawarstwiały się i rozdzielały tak, by solistycznie traktowana altówka znalazła się na pierwszym planie.

Atonal 2016

After the premiere at Cafe Oto where we presented our vinyl reissue from The Original Recordings from 1986 at Astral Industries in February, this time The Chi Factory played at the wonderful Atonal Festival in Berlin, to present the Bamboo Recordings by Koos & Hanyo. We had a lot of fun and got nice response. The Kraftwerk building is really impressive.

We don't have the instruments from the old days anymore, like self made stuff, log drums, found objects, an old Teac recorder, and more, but we performed in Berlin with 3 members of the original Chi set up; Hanyo on drums, bass, Rhodes, and vocals, Koos on his bamboo flutes and on clarinet, and me with a laptop. I was a member of The Chi Factory from January 2016 until December 2016.

The concert was an experimental mixture of jazz, contemporary, traditional music and ambient, using acoustic instruments , field recordings, many voice samples and electronics. Thank you Atonal!
