Boris Hauf and Jeremy Woodruff Quintet

BORIS HAUF – ELECTRONICS

“Don’t you lie awake at night wishing that Philip K Dick had written music to accompany his vision of dystopia? All that time he was working in a music store and we only get books… Well luckily, Mr. Boris Hauf has supplied us with the next best thing: The great anti-anti-utopia is here.” – Mark McLaren

Tonight we will also be showing music-videos of Vienna based video and sound artist billy roisz and dieter kovacic – in town to premiere their new film at Berlinale ’23.

Jeremy Woodruff Quintet is:

Frida Beck, Trumpet
Nils Marquart, Trombone
Jeremy Woodruff, Bari Sax and interviews
Peter Nitsch, Bass
Hans Otto, Drums

Jeremy Woodruff’s compositions for this ensemble feature a highly American idiom but with extremely unusual twists and turns:
these highly melodic investigations of alternate realities, often veering into unusual metrical combinations and a harmonic approach reminiscent of things you didn’t think could ever be musically possible again after about 1923. The somewhat simple melodies are a reactionary gesture to a glut of sanctimonious political, conceptual and technological artistic pretensions with which we are relentlessly confronted. Recorded interviews on personal lives maybe punctuate the deep sense of loss of our communal human future that the music is just able to hang by a thread of remaining sanity in order to communicate.
