SHAPE+ supported Tarta Relena’s music emerges as a dialogue between the rich vocal traditions of the Mediterranean and the subtle whispers of synthetic nuance. Layered harmonies and sonic experimentation uncover new resonances in age-old melodies, drawing on diverse vocal techniques—flamenco’s raw intensity, the precision of lyrical singing, and the fluidity of jazz. Folklore is treated as a mutable and living tradition, unconfined by historical boundaries; melodies from the oral traditions of Sephardic Jews, Sappho’s poetry, and medieval hymnody are reinterpreted, suffused with a shared, time-transcendent language: grief and joy, divinity and earthliness, dissolving into a singular resonance.

A multisensory experience that smears the lines between concert and performance art, Berlin-based music ensemble 33 emerged as a collaborative force between artist-filmmaker-musician Alexander Iezzi and experimental composer-performance artist Billy Bultheel. The duo craft a mutant vision blending experimental soundscapes with classical elements and draw from an eclectic mix of musical collaborations for an immersive installation-like spectacle. Enveloping audiences completely, the duo weave together rapid-fire techno with dark industrial textures and baroque vocals.
