∆ Bakantez formed in 2022 as the solo electronic project of Chicago based experimental composer Hanna Elliott, former member of the industrial duo HOGG. Over the years of creative development, Hanna has retained consistent themes of libidinal physicality, tactility, and tumultuous introspection. Her project Bakantez sonically consists of electro-acoustic sampling, sequencing, synthesis, and processed vocals reminiscent of sound collage, minimal wave, and noise. Her new work uses home-made objects that translate movement into tools for sonic manipulation.

∆ Sarah Lutkenhaus uses modular synthesis, field recordings, and vocal improvisation to build layered compositions. The work explores emotional extremes, physical limitations, and vulnerability of the human experience in modern daily life.

∆ Carolina Arroba is an Ecuadorian musician, producer and performer, based in Chicago IL. In activity since 2002, performs her music in several formats. Her close bond with minimalism led her to develop a Live P.A. exclusively played on hardware, project which is within what is known as Techno-tinged; which uses melodies recognizably, exploring the relationship between the body nature and machines. Also are these synthetic pads, since a measure loudness female sensitivity, generates atmosphere of sweetness in the media ranges. The sound foundations of the project are the result of experimentation in machine hardware synthesis and textures, micro percussion and powerful rings of drum and bass. In permanent activity within the electronic music scene overseas.

∆ Margaret’s Apartment is the solo electronic endeavor of multi-instrumentalist Kristin Meinke. With influences like Chris and Cosey, Carl Craig, and Eliane Radigue, Meinke layers solid beats and kinetic riffs while her vulnerable vocals peek through. The result is cinematic, a little dark and often danceable.
