"Ingrid Schmoliner (* 1978 in Villach) is an Austrian musician (singing, piano) of New Music and Jazz - which also touches improvisation and volkmusik. Life and Work

Before her classical studies at the Kärntner Landeskonservatorium in Klagenfurt, Schmoliner had a piano interest in improvised, experimental and contemporary music. Further, she was trained in classical singing but also in jazz singing. As a gastsolist, she sang at the Graz opera in the opera Buio by Hannes Kerschbaumer. The composer Denovaire wrote the Solostimme for her as an altist in the Muata Erdn choir.

Together with Pascal Niggenkemper (double bass) and Joachim Badenhorst (saxophone), she released the album Watussi. In the Trio Taro (with Matthias Erian and Martin Schönlieb) she recorded the CD flaechten (Ostblock). There is also a composition for piano solo by and with Ingrid Schmoliner on record and two albums of the trio Para with Elena Kakaliagou (horn and voice) and the contrabassist Thomas Stempkowski. She also worked with Xu Fengxia, Clayton Thomas, Marco Eneidi, Daniel Lercher, Susanna Gartmayer and Frantz Loriot.

He is also active as a music teacher. She also teaches in the disciplines of overtone singing and yodeling. She has also devoted herself to "researching pianos and the ideal wood preparations for years."

Schmoliner received the promotion prize for music in Carinthia in 2013."

Bilgehan Ozis is a Berlin-based musician and mix engineer whose work spans a wide range of genres — from jazz and indie to classical, fusion, avant-garde, folk, and electronic ambient music. As a solo artist, he releases music under the moniker Offseeds on Yatak Records.

After graduating from MIAM in Istanbul in 2002, he began working with local rock bands, folk musicians, and pop artists. As Istanbul's club culture expanded, he found himself increasingly drawn to electronic music and jazz. This evolving interest led him to explore and create sounds across a variety of musical styles, contributing to projects that spanned genres. In those years he released music under various aliases through compilations and collectives.

In 2010, he relocated to Berlin, where he expanded his practice to include recording and mixing for film, alongside producing albums. His collaborative work includes projects with artists and musicians such as Ali N. Askin, Ensemble Musikfabrik, David Moss, Hannes Strobl, Meritxell Aumedes, Johannes Malfatti, Elena Kakaliagou, Ingrid Schmoliner, Boris Hauf, and Ali Perret, among others.

Since 2024 he has been mixing in Dolby Atmos, expanding his practice into immersive audio production.
