Hugo Esquinca, Adam Campbell, Svartvit, Kamloops, Awenydd & Hesker

On the 22nd of november Charnel Ground returns to Resistor in Leiden for an evening of noise, tape manipulation and heavy electronics.

Hugo Esquinca (MX)

Hugo Esquinca’s work is a multi-layered crust, intentionally obfuscated through excess, deliberately hard to peel. Whether by testing the listener’s ability to process sonic density and amplitude, or by pushing down on the functional event horizon of whatever system he utilises (from computers to trusty cardioid microphones), Hugo’s live recordings, site-specific installations and recorded pieces are a constant celebration of that in-between, dream-like grey area, and the collapse that comes with it.

Adam Campbell (UK)

Adam Campbell is a Scottish musician based in Berlin who works with improvisation, feedback and non-linear systems. With Tristan Clutterbuck he runs Fancyyyyy, a record label and publisher of cybernetic music instruments. Ongoing projects Ego Depletion with Fritz Welch and Butter with Tina Krekels and Grant Smith.
