============================================
Opera Mort (FR)
Ongoing collaboration between Jo Tanz (Fusiller) and Laurent Gerard (él-g): abstract and other-worldy electronics. Cold fever- syrupy proto-techno improvisations. Electronics visitations, synthetic love, trances tunnels, processed evil vocals, raw broken beats, from FRANCE. Recent LP on Alter (Luke Youngers' imprint) got high praise from all over:
Soupy, unsettling explorations with wobbly basses, cooing synths and percussion that chatters more than grandad’s dentures after a sneaky rub of whizz (Factmag)
…True electronic alchemy, two minds synched to the same code/language and sharing a taste for unique, visceral electronic timbre... improvisations bristling with a nervous energy, finding a concentrated sweet spot between raw, hands-on experimentation and sophisticated, dynamic production. To decide whether it's techno, free-improv, avant-garde or whatever would be to miss the point; it's all of them and then some. (Boomkat)

Pizza Noise Mafia (BE)
The duo of TG Gondard and Matthieu Levet playing cold, minimal, machine funk and intoxicating analogue acid sounds. Demonic "real people" dance from Brussels, setting even the chilliest the dancefloor on fire. Feet from the floor.

Gueule Populaire (AUT)
Viennese performance group consisting of Margaret Unknown and Rosi Rehformen. Working with a variety of groups in the local and international scene both artists have had their share of non-idiomatic improvisation and have shifted their focus from a mere single-dimensional sonic performance to a broader definition of the performative practice, extending their momentum of influence by engaging sound, movement, theatrical elements, contracted/extended time sequences, and altered states of being.
