Berlin-based sound artist Carsten Nicolai—a.k.a. alva.noto—has established himself as a leading figure in the realm of electronic sound and visual design, using art and music as tools to create a microscopic view of the creative process.
Nicolai has performed and created installations in many of the world‘s most prestigious venues including The Guggenheim, the San Francisco Museum of Modern Art, NTT Tokyo, and the Venice Biennale, and is a featured artist on the Raster-Noton label. For this concert performance he will be joined by two other Raster-Norton recording artists, CM von Hausswolff and Bytone.
Nicolai, whose work has been referred to as “posthuman funk,” plays freely with the rules of tonal physicality. Using looping oscillators, tone generators, and modem sounds, he heightens the time and space aspects of tones so that pure electricity actually becomes audible. Clicks and glitches are not used as ornamental additions to his compositions, rather they constitute essential elements. These sound sources are then applied to the rhythmic groove of Hip-Hop and R&B, producing an utterly unique sound. Nicolai ignores the limits between genres and brings experimentalism one step closer to the clubs. As the New York Times said, Cartsten Nicola “makes you think about the future of music.�
