For Occulto Fest he will show his more psychedelic and obscure side.

Boring Machines ///// distro @ OF 2012
I could now start telling you a beautiful story that starts with a minitour from Locarno to Hamburg through Berlin, and ends up in a Penthouse in Marzahn. But Occulto Fest is starting in less than 72 hours and I will save the details for another occasion. Boring Machines is the one man label founded by Onga in 2006. In few years it has published almost 40 releases (both vinyls and CDs), almost...

** HMWWAWCIAWCCW? ** European Tour and more
I practiced a lot while preparing Occulto Fest with Du Champ and now I can finally say it clearly and fast even after a couple of beers:
How much wood would a woodchuck chuck if a woodchuck could chuck wood?
They are currently touring in Europe, they’ve already been in Luzern, Strasbourg, Bruges, and very soon we will welcome them in Berlin, where they’ll perform twice

Hunt me tender ///// Fabio Orsi and Valentina...
The first time I ever met (and heard a great live by) Fabio Orsi I gave him a copy of Occulto Issue Zero and then I ran away. A week later he visited my studio with his friend and collaborator Valentina Besegher, a video artist and graphic designer. Since then me and my partner in crime Du Champ have been fancying about inviting them to perform together. The chance finally came and we are...

SUN WORSHIP
Sun Worship channels almost distant howls from the void since early 2010, thriving in and from the netherworld between nothing and everything. Nihilism as an irrational and desperate urge to exist and create, the celebration of contradictions in general and particular, post fucking black fucking metal, et al. Played with a bunch of different bands the last few months.
