Two visionaries of electronic music together live, an AV reflection on nature, modular synthesis and enveloping generative art, and shades of deconstructed IDM and digital frequencies

CoH meets Abul Mogard _IT / RS·SW / Houndstooth
Fabled electronic music visionaries CoH and Abul Mogard form a supranatural alchemy of discrete analogue material and digital energies in their extraordinary debut for Houndstooth. Stemming from a chance meeting at festival in 2019, the first collaboration of Russian musician, sound artist and engineer Ivan Pavlov (CoH), deeply respected for intensely curious original solo work and in SoiSong with Psychic TV/Coil’s Peter Christophersen, and Italian artist Guido Zen (Abul Mogard), pioneer of late 90s electronica, focusses stunning new perspectives on the artist’s respective, fiercely singular and widely adored bodies of work.

Joakim Second Nature _FR / Tigersushi
Second Nature is a project about our relationship with nature. How do we perceive and represent it in the Western world? Why did it detach from us and from culture? How can we create a new relationship with it in this era of major environmental challenges? It took Parisian artist Joakim five years to complete this album, mainly due to the extensive compilation of all the field recordings that inhabit this enveloping work of fauna and flora, in which he also returns to his roots of IDM, classical music, avant-garde pop and ambient. A psychedelic journey in a modern Noah's ark where a 3D soundscape, multiple videos, smells, and a vegetal set up blend together, blurring the line between the natural and the artificial.
