Dj Xavier Morel (FR/UK)
Music and art can very much touch us with the essence of symmetry, balance, fluidity, cohesion whilst their counterparts: dis-juncture, chaos, inertia, provide the tension that makes for the through line: Story.
No wonder then that Xavier Morel, a verteran and simply awesome producer and dj speaks in such terms. In these days where the distinction between artist and playlist are becoming less distinct, the essence of audio art is becoming distilled in it's import.
"The most important concept in music is not the way you play your tracks but the story you make with them! Mixing and music is my passion and my career. I hope to carry and share this as long as possible!" - Xavier Morel
Xavier Morel's love of electronic music started on a faithful day in '76 when he won Kraftwerk's Radio Activity single at a winter fair.12 years later he was mixing at underground parties in the suburbs of London when one day he decided to go traveling. Amazingly he found his way onto a billing at Kho Phangan's infamous New Years eve parties and then made his way to Japan. Since then Xavier has toured his sound all around Europe, Asia, Australia, the U.S.A and South America. From the late '90s, Xavier produced several tracks on various projects, mainly with Juno Reactor from 1996 to 2008, Prime Suspect, Section X, Eat Static, Fuel, Carcharodon, Megalodon. In 2009 he worked with Virgil Enzinger on the ‘VX’ project and debuted their album ‘Fiction’ of deep dark moody techno on the German label Nachtstrom Schallplatten, He then since collaborated with The Delta and Thomas P Heckman, and is now is now focussing all his effort and studio work with Shane Berry into their H229’ project with three EP’s already released on Nachtstrom Schallplatten & Australian label, Machine. featuring remixes from Bas Mooy, Mike Parker, Linas & Vincenn. In 2019 Xavier completed a real deep slow burner of a remix with Shane Berry for UK Techno legends 'Empirion' under the XMSB moniker. His production have seen success with the likes of Speedy-J, Dave Clarke, The Advent, Eric Sneo, Felix Krocher, Arne (aka Extrawelt) etc. praising their releases.
VJ MANDALA (Adem Jaffers)
During a photography gig during the late ’80s, Adem was first introduced to analogue/digital video art during Future Films production of the ground-breaking music video clips for MaxQ, then soon after for Third Eye. That inspirational creative cultural impetus saw Adem pursue experimental digital art with a fervour, initially via the legendary Amiga-500 computer and analogue video-feedback.
Expanding his visual repertoire to incorporate lighting and laser; fusing these mediums into dynamic illuminated projection designs for the Psy-Harmonics, Every Picture Tells a Story and Earthdance raves, the Big Day Out, Earthcore and Rainbow Serpent bush doof festivals, internationally at Infinite Frequency (LA) and Tsunami (NYC) parties; and more recently a residency as Laser op at the established Machine monthly techno night.
With a propensity toward [the] cutting edge, Adem’s works embody and explore exo/esoteric concepts within the psychedelic, spiritual, scientific and political-cultural paradigms that the highly influential Cyber and Rave culture had embraced.
In collaboration with Cyber Dada, Adem was a seminal figure in the creation of the underground Cyberthon live electronic video-art broadcast events held at the RMITV studios and at TVU’s pop-up warehouse TV broadcast space during the early to mid-’90s. Cyberthon's mastered recordings have been digitised into the ACMI archives.
From the mid to late nineties Adem also ventured into commercial art as a 3D animator, then specialised as a Compositor for TV series, TV adverts, music videos, documentaries, feature film as well as periodic web-based media and gaming for Unreal Pictures, Liquid VFX and other studios.
In the last decade, Adem has continued to VJ for live acts such as Taipan Tiger Girls, Monolake and Digital Primate/ Christopher Coe. A recent highlight in collaboration with Projection Teknik; Creating the 360-degree animation presentation of Ideation - which was projection mapped over the Victorian State Library’s La Trobe domed reading room during White Night festival.
