John Macedo is a sound artist from London. He has incorporated everything from acoustic instruments and environmental sound to analogue and computer synthesis, into compositions, live performances and sound installations. He has a pluralistic approach that focuses on movement, subtle detail, and capturing and generating unrepeatable/unpredictable sound events.
Kostis Kilymis is an artist focusing on feedback systems and representation in musical performance and artistic practice. His main instrument is the mixing board through which he captures and manipulates electroacoustic phenomena, pre-recorded material and electronically generated sound. He has been an improviser, performer and collaborator (with Lucio Capece, Nikos Veliotis, Leif Elggren, Sarah Hughes, Stephen Cornford and Phil Julian amongst others). He curates the Organized Music from Thessaloniki label.
Louie Rice works with electronic and acoustic systems utilising the physicality of the medium, signal chain and spatial context to create disruptive audio material with a tendency towards a cold reductive aesthetic. He runs the experimental music label Hideous Replica and co-programmes an event series called Hideous Porta.
