Valerio Tricoli, Sky H1, Hex

Italian electronic composer Valerio Tricoli debuted with the lengthy pieces of Did They? Did I? (Bowindo, 2003) and A.M.A.R.Y.L.L.I.S. (Lalia, 2007). After several collaborations, including Coi Tormenti (2010) with Antoine Chessex and Forma II (2011) with Thomas Ankersmit, the compositions of Miseri Lares (2014) bridged musique concrete and ambient glitch music in a way that somehow evoked radio plays.

Painstakingly assembled from a multitude of audio sources, Miseri Lares provides exhilarating and, at times, harrowing experience. In The Eye Of The Cyclone is a terrifying vision of life from the afterlife, like being able to listen to the world from inside a tomb.

Having previously collaborated with producers and collectives such as Bala Club and Creamcake, Brussels-based SKY H1 has since performed at the likes of multi-media 3HD Festival and Amsterdam’s Sonic Acts to high acclaim for her distinctly forward-thinking sound.

Drawing from a background of widely-varying musical tastes from Ambient to Grime, her own work is an amalgamation of emotive compositions of orchestral Elysian synths, often displaced with sparse percussive elements.

London duo Charlie Noon and Tom Field (a.k.a Hex) have announced the release of an upcoming EP set to land via Mute subdivision; Liberation Technologies.
