Afgang 2025: Petr Balhar

A LARGE ACOUSTIC ENSEMBLE BEING LIVE SAMPLED AND PROCESSED.

FROM A TINY SWEET MELODY PLAYED ON A BASS CLARINET TO A BRUTAL NOISE TECHNO. 

DECIMATE EVERYONE WITH LOVE, HATE AND EVERYTHING ELSE IN BETWEEN AND BEYOND HAPPENING IN OUR LIMBIC SYSTEMS.

LISA is a convergence of anchor points in my musical life: the mainstream pop I listened to as a kid, the jazz that defined my teenage years, and my current influences - Surrealism, Dadaism, collaging, field recordings, and the creation of noise through dense sampling. 

„LISA is more an impression of a person than an actual one. 

They’re being distorted, warped, altered, manipulated — by someone else.

There are voices everywhere.

Disorientation and sensorial overload. A struggle to confront what lies outside, where nobody knows the whats or the whys.

LISA tries to push through it all with simple melodies, pop chords, and Berlin-style free improv."
