About the Performers

Finnish artist, Vladislav Delay is at the forefront of international electronic music. Part ambient, part percussive, Delay's music is infused with an elegiac quality. Aural fragments loop and overlay creating clouds of granular, occasionally corrosive sonic textures. Delay also records and performs as Luomo.

UK musicians, Ben Edwards and Douglas Benford are Tennis They exploit the dynamics of echo and delay to produce a sound which is both ghostly and organic. They have toured Europe, playing on occasion with Delay.

New Zealand musician, Rosy Parlane produces full and intricate soundscapes which are innately musical, involving and affecting. Parlane also runs the label Sigma Editions, which released Vladislav Delay's first album, Ele.
