As a consequence of the widespread situation with corona virus, the concert on april 10th has been cancelled. We’re working on alternative dates and are hoping to give more information about that as soon as possible. 

Døre kl 20 / koncert kl 21

Et sted mellem ældgammel buddhistisk chant, strubesang, performancekunst og mørk ambient skaber russiske Phurpa særegne og dunkle ritualer.

Alexei Tegin har i mange årtier huseret i den russiske undergrund, hvor han har arbejdet med alt fra avantgarde-jazz til Swans-inspireret industrial. Men med projektet Phurpa er han for alvor nået ud til et bredere internationalt publikum. Bemærkelsesværdigt nok med et moderne take på ældgamle buddhistiske vokaltraditioner, der går under navnet Bön. 

Selveste Sunn O))) fik i 2015 ørerne op for Phurpa og inviterede dem med på tour. Måske ikke overraskende, for selvom førstnævnte har udgangspunkt i ekstremmetal, mens sidstnævnte arbejder med gamle rituelle chants, så er der oplagte sammenfald. Ikke kun interessen for dybe droner, men i høj grad også den kutteklædte scenefremtoning, hvor grænsen mellem koncert, ritual og performance udviskes. Sunn O)))s Stephen O’Malley udgav da også Phurpa-albummet ‘Trowo Phurnag Ceremony’ på sit eget label. 

De seneste år har Phurpa betaget publikummer til en lang række store festivaler som Primavera, CTM og Krake med et udtryk, der både appellerer til lyttere af mørk ambient, doom metal, meditationsmusik og strubesang a la Huun Huur Tu. 

Bön-traditionen, som Phurpa bygger videre på, kan føres tilbage til ældgamle tantriske praksisser bygget op omkring langstrakte messende forløb og strubesangsteknikker. Phurpa inddrager ligeledes traditionelle tibetanske instrumenter, men blander disse med moderne elektronik og hjemmebyggede metal-instrumenter. Resultatet er mørkt, mystisk og dragende. En oplevelse, der nærmest opsluger lytteren i en trancelignende tilstand. 

For at bygge den rette, mørke trancetilstand op medbringer russerne det tyske projekt Vū, hvis kompositioner blander stemme, percussion og elektroniske klangflader til at fremmane en lignende ritualistisk atmosfære. Vū vil optræde i en særlig konstellation med Berlin-baserede XMTR - et eksperimenterende audiovisuelt projekt, som gør brug af field recordings, droner og circuit bending. 

In English:

ALICE proudly presents a night of modern Bön with the ritualistic Russian group Phurpa.

Phurpa are a musical collective and performance group – a darkling clan of ritual musicians upholding performative practices from one of the oldest Buddhist traditions from Tibet. Their 'singing' technique is intensely specific: a tantric, gutteral song from the depth of the throat. Spawned by the mind of Alexei Tegin, Phurpa brings the sacral Bön´s chanting tradition to the modern electronic scenario, through the use of the old tibetan chant´s technique, as well as the use of some proper tibetan´s sacral music instruments, like tibetan trumpets and percussions. The leitmotiv of Phurpa´s music art is always the same: bringing the Bön tradition to the experimental music panorama, through a dark, heavy and extremely engulfing aura, which emanates from their live´s aesthetic as well. 

Along for the night they’re bringing the German project Vū that will perform together with audiovisual project XMTR. Vū embraces a corporeal approach to the composition by using his voice and playing percussions, achieving a ritualistic and meditative sound. Part of the visual art collective mraak, XMTR presents different sound experiences through field recordings, drones, granular texturization, diy synths and circuit-bent radios.
