∆ PCRV is Matthew Taggart’s long running harsh noise project currently based out of Fargo ND. PCRV approaches harsh noise with a vengeance. Pummeling and Fast. Disjointed and abrupt. PCRV gets right to the point.

∆ Vertonen has been the solo project of Blake Edwards since 1991. recent work has focused on extracting as much possibility as possible out of outdated or damaged equipment (microcassette players, portable turntables, shortwave radio) in conjunction with high powered magnets or unstable contact microphones.

∆ J. Soliday is an electronic musician. A member of neural goldberg, Cleav’d Cleaver, xTAL fSCK, LORD MUTE, and various ad-hoc ensembles too numerous to mention. He can usually be found traversing the boundaries between free improvisation, concrete composition, and aleatoric noise.

∆ Instinct Control is a project of Ryan ⊥ Dunn primarily utilizing the unintended, soul-salvage of planned obsolescence through direct physical contact with the circuitry of tape players. Instinct Control considers instrumentality, expectations and the musician’s gesture—resisting the implied philosophies of settings, knobs, planned instruments, reveling in chance and dialogue, performing sound with an object that is fickle to changes in environment and performer.

∆ Onur Zlobnicki
Keven Michael-Onur Kalaycıoğlu-Żłobnicki’s compositions for modular synthesizer are structured within Quantum Entangled systems where Indeterminacy and Nonlinearity become favored as compositional and improvisational tools. Pieces are influenced by contrasting fluctuations of Harsh Noise, Drone, Musique Concrete, Algorithmic Composition, and Found Sound Manipulation violently coalescing into a primordial soup of distorted and dynamic orchestral inspired movements. Keven is the founder and designer of the, Chicago based, Eurorack modular synthesizer company, Żłob Modular, and guitarist/composer of Puke in the Icetray.
