about

Based in the US since 2002, Andrea Pensado uses voice and electronics to create her highly idiosyncratic brand of experimental music. A harsh, cut-up sound profile, mixed with the strong emotional component of her music, generates a deeply personal sonic language which inevitably gives rise to intense responses in the most diverse audiences. Pensado exhibits staggering control in her work, utilizing Max MSP to map synthesis parameters into performance gestures. Her music contains an obscured discipline amidst the seeming chaos. Or, as Peter Margasak of the Chicago Reader writes, “…Pensado has an impressive control of her tools - she can suggest recklessness while knowing exactly what she is doing…” This interplay of entropy and order creates a beautiful system of tension and release in the music which can leave an audience awestruck and completely enveloped.
Pensado performs extensively in the US and abroad. She also produces Sonorium, a series of experimental music based in Salem, MA.

---------------------------------------

Jaw Surgery is the harsh noise project from Chester Masangya, based in Rizal in the Philippines. The project blends distortion, feedback, delay and clutter into a cacophony of fear and insanity. Masangya has been one of the most active experimental musicians in Southeast Asia in recent years. He has participated in numerous noise / industrial / experimental projects, including Coalminer, Fossa Magna, Fleshcarver, and many others. He has also collaborated with musicians all over the world, such as Torturing Nurse, otay:onii, Richard Ramirez, Toshiji Mikawa, Maurizio Bianchi, Ethan Lee McCarthy (Many Blessings), Hasegawa Hiroshi (Astro), and Dominik Guerin (SPK). Masangya's music has been released on labels such as Steinklang in Austria, Karma Detonation Tapes in Taipei, Grubenwehr Freiburg in Germany, Damien Records in the US, and WV Sorcerer Records in France.
