100110 : SOUND-ODYSSEY



ENG:


Are we on a voyage through a remotely obscure galaxy, or did we dislodge to the deepest of slumbering rainforests?

Or the opposite?



SOUND-DUO 100110 is manipulating their instruments –

two electric typewriters – in ways you never heard typewriters sound before.


---------------


The sound-duo 100110 was formed in spring 2012 as an artistic collaboration. What started as a side-project to experimental sound-trio Triumph-Adler evolved into becoming "..one of Swedens most interesting combinations of sound-art, electronic impro, or whatever you call it.." (review in swedish by Thomas Millroth on sound of music) and in October 2012 they released their first EP 001 as well as taking a mini-tour, with Ljudodyssé (Sound-Odyssey) performing in Gothenburg, Sweden & London, UK.


The foundation for 100110:s sound are two electric typewriters & effects, and out of this frame they create sprawling suggestive & meditatively noisy. The slow builtup and wide outstretched compositions expand the conscious beyond the constraints of the physical space and bring the listener on a voyage through unexploited soundscapes.


SILWEX HOUSE: In the end of October 2012 100110 spent a few days in London, working on site-specific compositions in a decayed industrial building steps from Brick Lane and Shoreditch High Street station. The compositions where improvised and accompanied by the humming sounds of the trains passing on the tracks outside – and an electric guitar was used as an unexpected guest-appearance.

The Silwex House Sessions will be released later this winter.

Thomas Millroth, review EP001 (in swedish)

sound of music





”The Swedish duo 100110 makes music exclusively from electric typewriters, but in a way that evokes avant-garde composer William Basinski’s urgent and unsettling “The Disintegration Loops” more than a cacophony of key-slapping. “They sort of create a drony, atmospheric soundscape,” Surak says. “They utilize typewriters in a way that creates sustained tones, and different timbres and colors.”
