ANDARTA + ILIA GOROVITZ + CHI HIM CHIK

Door: 20:00
ARDARTA + ILIA GOTOVITZ + CHI HIM CHIK

Andarta com from Jerusalem and play noiserock with a punk attitude and an industrial influence. Orbiting and residing in a murky engine oil bunker scented with sweat and the aura of disgust/ contempt, illuminated by the flickering back light of a broken strobe is where you’ll find, or possibly run into for this low slung drop tuned sludge, that easily and heavily reflect upon the current times with the same angst as early Swans and the formidable Melvins albeit the comic strip humour of the latter.

Ilia has been busy with recording music and perfecting his live set which consists usually of acoustic drums, found objects like bicycle wheels and metal parts and electronics. With his live setup, Ilia uses his drums not only as an acoustic instrument, but also as a controller to manipulate the electronic and processed sounds. with this method, Ilia tries to fuse the acoustic and electronic worlds and create a symbiotic relationship where the electronic sounds are affected by his playing and vice versa.
