Tore Honoré Bøe / Kakawaka / + TBA

Tore Honoré Bøe

In addition to concerts on pure acoustic laptops with no additional effects, an intense listening experience that can be performed from a stage or in the room, Boe is doing “Music, even”, where he also include other instrumentation and prerecorded blocks of sound to present both new material and draw upon his entire solo soundarchive from 1984 to the present to recreate old material and mix it with new. Boe will even include material from albums like Siesta, Monokromosom, Confessions Of A Poolboy, Melting Snow and Viscum Album. Every set will be uniquely adapted to the situation. The concerts are intense, verving on the performative, as they are visual and tend to get physical.

“Boe is not unlike John Cage: a man of small sounds, but with the amplification used in rock concerts I am pretty sure this must have sounded massive. Musicboxes, piano bangs and obscured drones make up a great piece that receives a good applaus from the audience. Well deserved.” – Frans DeWaard, Vital Weekly 604 “The live part tug at the end of your conciousness, like happenings outside your field of vision, while the recorded parts provide a muzz curtain elegantly highlighting the tinkle and clunk of the assembled art kitchen.” – The Wire “The sounds posess a very natural inherent beauty, something that he is a very keen observer of.” – Roel Meelkop
