\"\"<\/p>\n

Oker<\/strong> is an acoustic experimental quartet focusing on the amalgamation of improvised\u00a0and composed modes of expression.\u00a0Their music combines fine-tuned tonalities, deconstructed grooves,\u00a0acoustic noise\u00a0and other sonic\u00a0events, taking their rather conventional instrumentation as a point of departure. Textures in gradual change coexisting with responsive and spontaneous\u00a0gestures create a varied\u00a0but coherent musical ecosystem which can be airy or dense,\u00a0dry or blooming. A certain minimalist\u00a0or stoic approach to sound production is an overarching and recurring element in all of Oker’s music,\u00a0differentiating their sound from the majority of music in the field of improvised music or free jazz<\/span>.\u00a0Oker has toured extensively in Europe\u00a0and has released two records –\u00a0Husene v\u00e5re er museer,\u00a0<\/i>released on SOFA music in 2018 and\u00a0Susurrus, released on\u00a0<\/i>Shhpuma in 2021. http:\/\/okerband.com\/<\/a><\/p>\n

Wo f\u00e4ngt der Beat an? Diese Frage stellen sich die Schlagzeugerin Judith Schwarz und der Elektronikmusiker Arthur Fussy in ihrer Performance \u201eBeyond the Beat\u201c. Die Grenzen des Rhythmus auszuloten haben sie sich als Ausgangspunkt genommen und schaffen dabei eine sich immer wieder wandelnde Symbiose aus akustischen und elektronischen Kl\u00e4ngen. Weiters greift dieser Zyklus aus solistischen und kollektiven St\u00fccken Gedanken der beiden MusikerInnen auf, die sie schon lange in der gemeinsamen Arbeit begleiten. Wann erkennt das Ohr und das Bewusstsein ein Pattern? Wie abstrakt darf\/ kann es dabei zugehen, um den Zuh\u00f6renden trotzdem gen\u00fcgend Halt und Struktur zu bieten und Zusammenh\u00e4nge erkennbar zu machen? Ist Rhythmus auch Melodie? Wie weit reicht die M\u00f6glichkeit der Imitation und der Kontraste der Gegenpole Akustik und Elektronik? Welche Formate k\u00f6nnen sich bei der Verschmelzung dieser verschiedenen Klangqualit\u00e4ten und Spieltechniken entwickeln, um einen dramaturgisch ganzheitlichen Bogen \u00fcber die Performance zu spannen?
