FEATURING

Ottaven (from Italy) with Psychedelic Desert

OTTAVEN
Audio solo research / impro / broody & droony ambients

Ottaven is my solo audio project and i'm born in Italy. I started to play bass guitar around 2000 in a punk band called With Love and we toured several times all around Europe, once in Usa and once in Japan. For us the "punk" idea was related to freedom and impact, so step by step we kept on developed our sound, changing, trying to move in different directions and slowly discovering the pure impro. Sounds are everywere and my mission is to construct and de-construct my live sound composition as the mostly natural experience as i can. It can be violent and it can be gentle: it's a physic research and a mental exercise connected to the time and i prefer sounds to words.

Psychedelic Desert is an improvisation band formed in Osaka, Japan in 2004, Their psychedelic music has been described as mind expanding, primal and meditative.
