Jason Van Gulick
For more than a decade, Jason Van Gulick has used his education as an architect to explode the foundations of drumming.
Since 2011 he has been working on the development of several drum and percussion solo pieces, building on the foundations provided by such luminaries as Fritz Hauser, Ninh Lê Quhan or Chris Corsano.
Through his projects, he affirms his place as a percussionist and thus as an autonomous solo musician.
The exploration of space by the diffusion of sound and locating the musician in relation to an audience, have become recurring themes in his projects. His background in architecture and as a performing arts technician have inspired and motivated his own artistic work.

EL SANTO (fr)
After building his bass harp in the hostile forests during years and years, the forgotten percussionist EL SANTO is back from the Mexican hell to yell, scream, cry and laugh.
Coming from the experimental rock scene, Julien Chamla studied jazz standards, composition, arrangement and orchestration at the American School of Modern Music.
From improvised minimal and repetitive music to massive and noise music, he later on developed an experimental vocabulary based on scratchings, roughness and tension, exploring a full range of frequencies. Eager to expand the possibilities of his instrument, he designed an electric bass harp and included it has a part of his drumkit.
He’s currently involved in VEGAN DALLAS , HIPPIE DIKTAT, HELVED RÜM, TRIPES , RITUAL EXTRA, SPEZIAL.
