‍Dekalb Works is the collaborative project of Austin Peru (Vision Fortune) & Daniel Creahan (Sweat Equity / Alien D). Born out of a shared deep sociological interest of dialects and cultural frameworks, and the effects these have on meaning within modes of speech, the pair here delve into the dialects of their own beginnings, mining US/British regional accents and weaving these situational scenes through a textured, intentionally disjointed, hand made soundscape of bass tension and fleeting, glistening melody – adding additional layers of emotion and meaning to everyday observations of language.

totaleee is an open and fluid composer's society that encompasses the collective electroacoustic works produced by affiliated artists from and/or based in Naples, or who have a special connection with the city.

‍

At the time of writing, totaleee consists of Giuseppe Pisano, Andrea Laudante, and Paolo Montella. This installment of totaleee is the result of the first structural collaboration between these three artists. Their efforts, already linked by a series of encounters in various constellations (OEOAS, La Bestia Carenne, Ka’e), have now found a new form as a stable trio, composing acousmatic works and performing sets of noise-driven, non-idiomatic electroacoustic improvisations. 

‍

Together, they are working to develop an approach to composition that relies heavily on an ongoing dialogue about form, structure, and materials to enable a method of collaboration that is both philosophical and artistic.
