Collider er en drøm af et band, en kompleks forening, fyldt med revolutionære tanker, røde forelskede kinder og masser af håb. Med hektisk stil, skiftende arrangementer og et fænomenalt kreativt overskud, tager de lytterne med gennem deres musikalske ungdomsoprør – med retning som en supernova. Den naivistiske lethed i vokalerne ligger som en tåget kærlighed ovenpå bandets aggressivt præcise sammenspil.
Colliders nye EP hedder ”Excessively Worthwhile” og viser en tydeligere og mere kondenseret side af bandets sangskrivning efter debutalbummet “-><-”, der udkom i 2019 og blev modtaget med åbne arme. Sangene er født ud af Colliders sprudlende og charmerende univers, hvor den tidligere udgivelse var maksimalistisk sammenhængende værk, er der i den nye musik skåret ind til benet. Det hektiske er byttet med en oplevelse af et band, der hviler mere i sit eget udtryk, et band der tør finde ind til kernen af sin sangskrivning. Hver sang på ep’en er afbalanceret og følsom på sin egen måde. Det vidner første single ”Figuring”, som er en energisk og længselsfuld twee-pop genistreg.
Collider blev grundlagt af Mikkel Fink, Johan Polder, Troels Damgaard-Christensen og Marie Nyhus Janssen i 2015, efter Troels introducerer Marie til sine barndomsvenner. Synergien mellem dem boblede, da de sammen flyttede ind i en trashy, gul lejlighed i København. På baggrund af den adrenalinpumpende atmosfære og det akutte fravær af tryghed i begyndelsen af deres musikalske rejse oplevede bandet en altomvæltende impuls, som ledte frem til deres første pladeudgivelse.
abji_hypersun
abji_hypersun er et alias for Simin Stine Ramezanali, billedkunstner og trommeslager bosat i København, som er også er medlem af trioen SLIMo og medstifter af pladeselskabet og musikplatformen UUMPHFF-music.
abji_hypersun blander fragmenter af d’n’b, breaks, shoegaze og narrativ historiefortælling. Klassiske persiske musikinstrumenter omstemmes, og stemmer og beats lægges lag på lag for at skabe følelser af skønhed, morsomhed, uhygge og larm, et sted mellem drømme og mareridt.

Experience a sonic bouquet of thousand vivid colours when dreamy Copenhagen experimentalists Collider hit ALICE with clashing mixtures of complex spontaneity, naivistic yet agressive precision, and many shifting arrangements beyond the conventions of shoegaze, indie pop and progressive rock.
In 2015, Mikkel, Johan, Troels and Marie created Collider together, after Troels introduced his childhood friends to Marie. The synergy of the four members came to life as they decided to live together in a tiny, kind of smashed, yellow studio space in Copenhagen. Within the confronting atmosphere and urgent lack of comfort they experienced in the beginning of their musical journey, the band discovered a boundary-pushing drive that eventually led them to their first album release.
Structured out of a stream of consciousness approach, the album was developed through a collaborative investigation between experimental rock, and the folk music Marie brought with her from the duo Kirsten and Marie.
Meanwhile, the band had also become a staple in the Copenhagen underground scene, welcomed for their clashing mixtures of complex spontaneity, naivistic yet agressive precision, and many shifting arrangements. Over time, Collider has evolved a unique and collage-like approach to composition that goes beyond the conventions of shoegaze, indie-pop and progressive rock.
Their latest release is still grounded in the explosive energy that Collider is known for, but presents a more figurative and coherent approach to songwriting. Collider is based in Copenhagen where they are signed to Escho.
abji_hypersun
abji_hypersun is the moniker of Simin Stine Ramezanali, a visual artist and drummer based in Copenhagen. Known from the trio SLIM0 and co-founder of the music platform and label UUMPHFF-music.
abji_hypersun mixes fragments of d’n’b, breaks, shoe-gaze and narrative story-telling. Untuning Persian classical instruments, multiple voices and beats they move in between feelings of beauty, the funny, the scary, the loud (something in between nightmares and dreams). Through this, they tour the notion of sounds out of tune.
Their music has extracts tropes drawn from the operatic and theatrical. New interpretations of the love song, hyper-gratitude, anger and mourning XXL are central subjects in their composition and lyrics.
This experimental approach in composition comes from a drive for giving life a soundtrack, and a belief in music being the most precise language to use for this.
