"Danish trance-noise duo H E X teams up with Japanese modular-wizard DORAVIDEO (aka. Ichiraku Yoshimitsu) on their joint debut-album "Multi" which releases April 21st. After meeting at a venue in southern Japan in 2019, a future collaboration was planned.
Due to the madness of the corona-pandemic the first exchange happened in 2022, where H E X and DORAVIDEO recorded Multi and toured Denmark and Germany on a string of powerful trio shows enhanced by DORAVIDEOs intense laser-setup.
Multi is packed with mind-boggling free-form pieces spanning from noise-infested trance to abstract almost architectural sonic collages. H E X and DORAVIDEO weave the physicality of punk with the open-ended wastes of improvised noise. Instruments mutate and transform into a hivemind of intimate electronic madness and fiercely cascading pulses. Influences span far and wide from techno to dark ambient, post-metal to free-jazz, with a steady, beating heart for the cyclical and the occult."-Wetwear
