Spectro Duo – Trailblazers Tour

Spectro Duo’s musical focus is on drone, noise, beat phenomena, glitch, field recording transformation, microtonality and non-European modalities. As an ensemble driven by artistic expression and social awareness, they aim to inspire audiences with diverse, captivating works and introduce new ways of looking at society and our world. The name of the tour, «Trailblazers», encapsulates the musicians’ experiences as immigrants travelling between different countries and finding a creative base in Norway.

Spectro Duo invites you to the first concert of the tour, which will take place on 15 February 2024 at 19.00 at Kulturhuset Boksen in Oslo! The ensemble will promote their first EP «Travelers» – which will be available on Spotify and Bandcamp from the day of the concert – and play it live for you together with the piece «Inevitable Disintegration», which was already premiered at Oslo’s Tøyen Kirke last September! Look forward to a lot of drones, noises, microtones and field recording sounds!

Based on their experiences as newcomers since moving from Tehran to Oslo at the end of 2019 and their direct encounter with the new country during the pandemic lockdown, the Spectro Duo has created an electroacoustic triptych with two interwoven intermezzos. «Travelers» consists of the compositions Pathway, Stowaway and Lost and uses material from field recordings made on 17 May 2020 during Norway’s National Day celebrations. They are about finding one’s way in new communities, unfamiliar customs and dealing with changes brought about by the sounds reinterpreted by the ensemble. «Inevitable Disintegration» was premiered on 1 September 2023 during VoxLAB’s VårFEST in Oslo at Tøyen Kirke. With this work, the duo explore the themes of transformation and resilience, delving into the essence of change and its profound impact on the human experience.
