SIMISKINA + XAVIER QUÉREL live at Punctum

Punctum presents Sonitus Night w/ Simiskina Xavier Quérel /NO/FR/ 08 / 03 / 2018 Simiskina is a duo consisting of two young players from the vibrant Norwegian scene for improvised music. In November they will release their first album on CD and vinyl on the Portuguese label Clean Feed. This entirely acoustic album consists of 10 minimalistic improvisations with multiple layers of ever changing rhythmic patterns, performed on prepared piano and double bass. For the release tour however, Simiskina will perform on electric bass, synthesizers and electronics, and they will team up with french film maker and visual artist Xavier Quérel, known from the audiovisual noise-collective Metamkine. Xavier is included within Simiskina as a sort of third musician, working with images instead of sound. When they perform, Simiskina and Xavier are together on stage, interacting as three equal voices.
