Som tidligere medlem af bl.a. kultgrupperne Coil og Psychic TV har den elektroniske musiker Drew McDowall haft stor betydning for industrialscenen og New Yorks eksperimenterende musik. De seneste år har budt på flere soloudgivelser fra McDowall – nyligst albummet Agalma (2020, Dais Records), der bevæger sig væk fra industrial-genren, i retning at det storslåede og mystiske. Albummet er spækket med prominente gæster som Caterina Barbieri, Kali Malone, Robert Aiki Aubrey Lowe, Maralie Armstrong-Rial, MSYLMA, Bashar Suleiman og Elvin Brandhi.

Inspireret af det mystiske og det sakrale kombinerer McDowall modular-synthesizere med korstemmer, orgeldroner og strygere i hjemsøgende og spirituelle kompositioner. Brudstykker af instrumenter væves ind og ud mellem abstrakte samples og lydflader i desorienterende, hallucinerende stykker.

Vanessa Amara

Ud af manipuleret kirkeorgel og strengeinstrumenter har den tidligere danske trio og nu duo Vanessa Amara (Birk Gjerlufsen og Sebastián Santillana) siden 2013 skabt ren og rungende dronemusik, som bl.a. Fact Mag har skamrost og ganske rammende kaldt for “heartmaking drone”. Duoen er aktuel med deres fjerde udgivelse “Manos” på Posh Isolation, hvor de eksperimenterer med rå kassettebåndsloops og storslået instrumentering. Vanessa Amara skal opleves live, hvor de med inspiration fra ikoner som Lawrence English, Klara Lewis og Tim Hecker skaber et rum, hvor publikum indhylles i langsomme toner og et inferno af harmonisk forvrængning, der går lige i kroppen.

In English

Prepare for a dark and beautiful experience when industrial legend Drew McDowall (Coil, Psychic TV / PTV3) performs his majestic ambiance at Valby Kulturhus this May. The Danish Drone trio Vanessa Amara is playing a support set.

Being a former member of Coil and Psychic TV, electronic musician Drew McDowall has been important for the industrial scene and the experimental music scene of New York. He has released several solo albums during the years, latest Agalma (2020, Dais Records) - an album that reigns within the magnificent and the mystical. Its seven tracks include contributions from Caterina Barbieri, Robert Aiki Aubrey Lowe, Kali Malone, Maralie Armstrong-Rial, Bashar Suleiman, Elvin Brandhi and MSYLMA.

Inspired by the mystical and the sacral, McDowall combines modular synths with choir, organ drones, and strings in haunting and spiritual compositions. This music must be experienced live, and you shouldn’t miss the chance when ALICE presents Drew McDowall at Valby Kulturhus this May.

Vanessa Amara

Vanessa Amara is the alias for the Danish duo of Birk Gjerlufsen and Sebastián Santillana, who together create pure drone music with a deeply intimate core of manipulated church organs and flourishing strings. It is music, that Fact Mag quite apt has called “heartmaking drone”. The duo is ready with their fourth album on Danish label Posh Isolation. “Manos”, the most recently released, continues to explore the vast spectrum between divine instrumentation and raw manipulated tape loops, seeking to reach the innermost of their audience. As a live act, they construct a space where the audience is floating in an abyssal space of slow-moving tones and frequencies that builds into infernos of harmonic distortion not unlike artists such as Lawrence English, Klara Lewis, and Tim Hecker.
