Schwarz + Janek:

The fascination of expanding music into noise/sound and vice verse creates a content which doesn't need harmony or melody or groove to be transported. This describes best the musical dialog between Robert Schwarz (electronics) and Klaus Janek (doublebass/electronics).

Klaus Janek, classical and jazz trained, worked over a decade on acoustic solo doublebass, then he started to explore the combination of acoustic sound creation and loop/fx real time composition. He is touring worldwide and works in soundcreation for media (arte, zdf, 3sat) and architecture. www.klaus-janek.de

Robert Schwarz works in Vienna as an artist and composer. He studied architecture and computer music in Vienna and soundart at the Berlin University of the Arts. His installations are mostly spatial
translations of ideas into sound. Compositions, attached to objects and spaces as well as customised loudspeakers are essential elements of his works.

The live performance is a way to sensibilize for pure "sound" without traditional harmonics by sculpturing it in order to attain a spectral morphology in the space.

After starting his musical examination with turntableism and different percussion instruments, he studied electric bass at the Prayner Conservatory and took part in the lively jazz scene in Vienna, playing bass in various ensembles.

What´s the meaning of a red blue and yellow coloured plastic dolphin in a musical context?

2 kHz, is an electroacoustic music performing duo, formed in 2009.

Lead by a structural approach and a main conception for each performance, the live shows combine narrative and improvisational aspects. Pre-recorded sound samples referring to specific thematics are being transformed and spatialized, as well as adopted sound-"objects", often extracted from "everyday life", are subject of interaction between the two performing artists. Creating various sound environments, the musical result ranges from heavy textures to fragile gestures. The perception and the meaning of noise and sound is new in each place where music is projected. Loudspeakers are the actors, that are directed by sound during the live performance.

One of 2 kHz´s tape compositions is available for listening on http://www.elakwien.at/music.html
