We’ve experienced her projects as feeling out liminal sounds; serenely staunch IDM, acidic boppers and tinkling jingles to have you twirling into the early morning. You may have crossed paths with her music under the guise of B(if)tek […]

Liquid Architecture and Perth Festival present a lens to Asia-Pacific’s unrulier sound currents. The program traces a line from conceptual composition to scorched-earth noise praxis to the outer edges of contemporary rap. From Yogyakarta arrives Aditya Pandu Wijaya, a key figure in Indonesia’s noise vanguard and the force behind Bergegas Mati, his harsh-noise vehicle known for its eroding, heat-warped extremity. Pandu’s networked practice spans global collaborations, split releases, raw-collage digital art and his cassette-driven imprint Gerpfast Records, which has quietly become a clearing house for scenes that refuse to align – shoegaze, hardcore, metal, electronica and the vast detritus between. […]
