Nicola L. Hein (*1988 in Düsseldorf)
Nicola L. Hein is a guitarist, composer, philosopher and soundartist. As a guitarist he is mainly concerned about the search for new sounds on his instrument. He plays electric and acoustic guitar with or without preperations and tries to find new ways of playing the guitar within the context of Free Improvised Music and Jazz. He plays the guitar with his hands and plectrum but also with a lot of different objects: screws, rulers, iron wool, violin bow, abrasive paper, magnets and many other objects which are part of his musical vocabulary. The result is his very own world of sounds, which is using the rich potential of the guitar as a creator of sounds. The manual creation is a very important character of this sound world, which never gets distorted by the use of electronic effects.

Casey Moir (SWE/AUS)
Casey Moir is an improviser that explores the extended properties of the voice. She is intrigued by unconventional sounds and textures and incorporates these into her music with determination and subtle precision. She combines the acoustic voice with the use of carefully chosen pedals and percussion objects to elongate, layer and/or embellish a piece or improvisation. She is also an avid composer, who interweaves compositional aspects with free improvisation.
