SUTEKH HEXEN (USA)
There are in the abyss architects building great temples - spaces accessible to those who have the mind and fortitude to transgress the seen and pass into the unseen. There are those who know foundations, and those who further know adornment, where the subtle and the profound gnash their teeth. Amid splinter and nail, among cavern and spire, we find the black temples of Sutekh Hexen. Here, finely woven shrouds of static hang from clattering bones. On blinding pyres, offerings convulse, open into screams. The labyrinth collapses as soon as its center is found, and when you are offered this chance to catch your breath - take it. You will soon find yourself blindfolded, fingering crossroads, filthy with the marks of shadows older than the sun.
But savage territories yield, ultimately, to a grace of their own, discernible to the eye refined. Herein lie the guts of Sutekh Hexen's power. These are ruins reimagined, anarchic entities restrained -- though they twitch in their bindings and blister beneath our gaze. A way has been cut, yet we see that it is faceted, that it will never betray anything so evident as a single path. As bottomless as the abyss is, neither does it have a crown. The empyrean here is severe, the pits heaving and rich. The greatest subversion affected, then, by Sutekh Hexen, is the making unknown of the known, of offering a body upon which you may scratch and scratch until your nailbeds bleed and still believe you're digging at something holy.
And for all that is here profane, dead sacred are the rites of each of these offerings. These are no self-referential mirrors intended to seduce the ego. Instead, each demonstrates, unflinchingly, an encounter with those rare entities that have the power to haunt the haunted. Slippery are these altars, like honeyed knives to bone.
Grind that ear upon the temple door, and hold your teeth in your head. This exorcism's going to find its way back in. Receive it. Let it leave a mark.

CURSE ALL KINGS (GER)
Curse All Kings is the solo offering from COMMON EIDER KING EIDER's B.S.s... Four meditations using rock, stick, dirt, antler, viola and voice create offerings aimed at the negation of life captured by domestication through capital. Feral spirits are summoned, channeled, and unleashed on a world of concrete, control, and grid in the hopes of reclaiming our dreams, our connection to the earth, and our wildness. Curse All Kings is an anarchist and animist manifesto.

MARCO MALDARELLA (ITA)
Il suono distintivo di Marco come produttore musicale fonde musica ambient, techno psichedelica moderna con influenze tribali profonde, creando esperienze sonore immersive che trascendono i confini convenzionali. La sua ricerca personale esplora la relazione simbiotica tra ritmo visivo, dettaglio e il linguaggio in evoluzione dell'arte visiva, influenzato dalla tecnologia e dalle sottoculture: un'esplorazione continua della sinestesia, integrando vista e suono in un modo che riflette una dedizione al minimalismo estetico, combinato con un astrattismo caotico post-internet.

CRIME & THE CITY SOLUTION (AUSTRALIA)
Formed in Sydney by Simon Bonney at the age of 16, Crime & the City Solution’s early performances from 1977-1979 had a big impact on key figures of the early Melbourne art-punk/post punk scene. In 1984, Bad Seed Mick Harvey shipped Bonney to England to form the London based Crime with their friend, the brilliant and ever influential ex-Birthday Party guitarist, Rowland S Howard, his brother Harry Howard on bass and Epic Soundtracks on drums. Two years on, having toured Europe, the UK and US and released several EPs and an album, this lineup reached its zenith in a historic swansong performance in Wim Wenders’ cinematic masterpiece ‘Wings of Desire’.
Following the Berlin incarnation, encapsulated in Shine, The Bride Ship, Paradise Disco and the live album, The Adversary, it would be 20 years before the band, then based in Detroit, would return with 2013’s American Twilight: “as much an elegy to the American Dream that’s turned into a global nightmare as it is a damn fine rock & roll album” -The Quietus
Core members Simon Bonney and Bronwyn Adams recently returned with Crime’s sixth studio album the killer, recorded in Berlin by the second incarnation of the band to be based in the German capital.

APOLLO BROWN (USA)
Simplicity is genius. Great artists can make the ostensibly impossible seem effortless. It’s in this rarefied air where you’ll find Detroit’s Apollo Brown, constantly conjuring fresh innovations out of a tried-and-true formula. For the last decade, the Mello Music Group artist has singularly re-defined and expanded the foundation of what boom bap production can sound like in the 21st Century.
This is the tradition that Apollo Brown triumphantly upholds: the head-nodding, screwface-inducing, soul-replenishing lineage of Preemo and Pete Rock, J Dilla and Large Professor, Mobb Deep and DJ Muggs. He makes music for old and young heads—bone bruising beats that summon visceral images of back alley brawls in ’81, pool hall melees, and metropolitan griminess. An East Coast sound with a midwestern mentality, channelling the marrow-freezing chill of the wind fleeing Lake Michigan.
