Giles Reaves

Though his music is of the progressive electronic variety, this keyboardist and percussionist got his start through country music channels. While living in Nashville in the ’80s, Reaves hooked up with producer Marshall Montgomery and ended up working as his assistant engineer. Eventually Reaves’ own music caught the ear of MCA producer Tony Brown, who signed the synthesist up to the company’s Master Series label. Reaves recorded two solo albums and one collaboration with Jon Goin before a tightening in the music market forced MCA to let go of artists on its instrumental sub-label. In 1993, Reaves released Sea of Glass through Hearts of Space Records, which was his biggest hit yet. He also took on production gigs through Nashville, working on recordings by artists like Lisa Germano and Bedlam. He also joined Spacecraft and worked with Tony Gerber through the ’90s until the release of his next solo album, 2001’s Sacred Space.



Satoi

Satoi is an electronic music artist from Helsinki, producing ambient and techno, quite often creating in between the two genres. His sets are full of warmth in darkness, not unlike a melancholic hug. In this event he will play an ambient set full of atmospheric hope for a better future.

Antti Koukonen (FIN/DK) & ​​Rasmus Fisker (DK):​ INDUSPHERE

Rasmus Fisker (DK) & Antti Koukonen (FIN/DK)  ​
INDUSPHERE

A multi-channel sound installation based on field recordings
Exhibition open: June 11-15, 2018, 14:00-18:00.

Supported by Nordic Culture Point.


INDUSPHERE is a multi-channel sound installation based on field recordings from the urban and industrial sites of Aarhus, Denmark. The presented recordings function as documentations of sounds, both hidden and unconcealed, found in various locations in the rapidly developing harbour site and in the city centre; areas where human operations extensively shapes Aarhus’ sonic environment and acoustic ecology.
The installation includes different length loops and is constructed in such way, that the sound material creates a constantly changing sonic environment in the gallery’s space consisting of sound objects and ambiences.



RASMUS FISKER (DK) is an experimental electronic musician and composer from Aarhus, Denmark. His intuitive approach to music is prominent in his collaborations as the outcome often varies in constellation, genre and aesthetics. It is an urge to disappear into sound that drives his creative working process that functions as a personal output for both, abstract thoughts and concrete ideas.
Fisker creates music that explores the ever expanding possibilities of computer music. Since his debut as Sykofant at the 2010 STRØM festival Rasmus has been developing his sound, using a growing collection of recordings, effects and synthesizers. He is dedicated to exploring music with the intuition of a musician and the curiosity of a scientist. Rasmus loves detail, small breaks and weird timbres. Using a vast array of sources, he creates experimental, narratives for the ear.

ANTTI KOUKONEN (FIN/DK) is a Finnish field-recordist, soundscape composer and electronic musician. His artwork is mainly based on field recordings, which he modifies and combines with electronic sounds in order to explore the communicational potential between these elements, and reflect his emotional responses to places and situations. Through the special interest in creating abstract / surreal and atmospheric soundscape compositions, Antti’s distinctive artistic expression migrates between the extensive universes and aesthetics of soundscapes and musique concrete as well as anecdotal and ambient music.
