MY DISCO is an Australian music group that was formed between long term collaborators, Rohan Rebeiro, Benjamin Andrews, and Liam Andrews in 2003. MY DISCO are renowned for their minimalist approach to dark and heavy instrumentation.

MY DISCO will be joined by Adam Gołębiewski. Involved in experimental music, free improvisation and free jazz, Adam has performed and recorded with Yoko Ono, Thurston Moore, Fred Lonberg-Holm, Ken Vandermark, John Edwards, Mats Gustafsson, Alex Ward, Mazen Kerbaj, Sharif Sehnaoui, Peter Evans, Agusti Fernandez, Tim Daisy, Michael Esposito, Mike Majkowski and others.

This performance is supported by the Adam Mickiewicz Institute. 

Kali Malone (b. 1994) is an American-Swedish composer and musician based in Stockholm. Her compositions implement specific tuning systems in minimalist structure for pipe organ, choir, chamber music ensembles and electroacoustic formats. Kali’s music is rich with harmonic texture through synthetic and acoustic instrumentation in repetitive and extended durations. The music emits distinct emotive, dynamic, affective hues which bring a stunning depth of focus. 

Malone has released several critically acclaimed albums, notably The Sacrificial Code (Ideal Recordings, 2019). She has performed extensively at Musica Festival, Berlin Atonal, Moogfest, Kanal Pompidou, Intonal, Presences Electroniques, Le Guess Who, the Meakusma Festival, and Sonic Acts. Kali’s 2020 commission projects and residencies included Ina GRM, Berlin Monom & Funkhaus, The Richard Thomas Foundation, MACBA, and Orgelpark. She collaborates and performs with various artists, including Drew McDowall, Caterina Barbieri, Stephen O’Malley, Ellen Arkbro, Puce Mary, Zach Rowden, Leila Bordreuil and Lucy Railton. In 2016 she co-founded the record label and concert series XKatedral, together with Maria W Horn, in Stockholm. 

Conservatory trained composer, vocalist, and pianist Marina Herlop has been releasing music since 2016; with miu, her latest single and first release with PAN, her production applies the same approach of channeling her environment however with an expanded set of tools, extruding and reconfiguring new uncanny dimensions.

Experimenting for the first time with konnakol syllables and Karnatic rhythms harnessing the processed human voice and electronics, miu can be treated as a hazy mirror reflecting contorted desires. The Barcelona-based artist invites the listener to step into her otherworldly dreamscape, falling down a sonic rabbit hole into a garden of forking paths; this seductive parallel reality is amplified in the visceral natural depiction of a cow’s birth in miu's accompanying music video. 

Drawing on a deeply informed sound practice developed by fascination with dhrupad, long wire instrumentation, drone music, and phenomenological spectralism. Channeled through several years collaboration and inspiration via the composers Alvin Lucier & Phill Niblock, as well as his own work with mythical heavyweights Sunn O))), Stephen here presents a long form piece of microtonal, physical sound presented in more intimate and closer spaces.

Few groups in history, recent or otherwise, elevate mood to such singular, smoldering supremacy as the Australian duo of Jonnine Standish and Nigel Yang aka HTRK [‘Hate Rock'].

Across nearly two decades of work, wounds, and world tours, their sound has shape-shifted between densities and intensities, noise and nakedness, but never wavered in its delicate poetic gravity.

Lyra Pramuk fuses classical vocalism, pop sensibilities, performance practices and contemporary club culture in what can best be described as futurist folk music. Her debut album Fountain was released in 2020 on Bedroom Community.

Fountain plays with the perception of music, rhythms, speech, body, and the relation between technology and humanity, exploring a post-human, non-binary understanding of life and the fragile ecosystems it depends on. 

Kenyan by heritage, but born and raised in Kampala, incredible rapper MC Yallah has been on the hip-hop scene for nearly 20 years.

A combination of conscious and futuristic hip-hop, grime, punk and trap, her signature style is the rare, rapid and tightly controlled flow delivered in one or more languages (Kiswahili, Luganda, English and Luo). Fierce and intense, the lyrics draw from real-life experiences and often address women’s issues spreading a powerful message of integrity and self-determination.

Creating innovative club productions drawn from the complex rhythms of grime, footwork, and contemporary rap, Sinjin Hawke and Zora Jones craft dazzling visual environments packed with future facing music.

From boundary pushing interactive experiments to acclaimed visual albums, the pair's eclectic music is supported by enthralling projections accompanying Hawke and Jones’ high-definition club tracks - many of which make you feel like they’re moulding themselves into different shapes in front of you. 

Slikback and Weirdcore present their new Unsound-commissioned music video VOID.

Slikback (real name: Fredrick Njau) is an experimental music producer from Kenya mainly focusing on noise, bass and rhythmic elements. He takes elements from different genres like trap, techno, gqom and more to create his own unique blend. 

London based “Weirdcore's" work is the result of years of experimental design and animation work that pushes the boundaries of consciousness and visual interpretation. Adopting a method used more often by artists and music producers rather than by visual directors.
