KRIEGLSTEIN: Processing Hiob
The album is a rhythmically experimental reinterpretation of Bernhard Lang's opera Hiob. Krieglstein transforms clusters and minimal techniques into electronic soundscapes somewhere between club music and the avant-garde. The result is challenging and fascinating—an invitation to transcend listening habits.

Music: Rainer Binder-Krieglstein, inspired by Bernhard Lang's opera Hiob
Mastering: Bernd Heinrauch
Photos and Videos: Christine Winkler
Spatialisation: Eichamt

FF2P | ROMANOV | LAIN IWAKURA

FF2P, Romanov, and Lain Iwakura come together for a live set where vinyl meets live synths and drums, with Lain in charge of spatialisation. FF2P is the vinyl-only collaboration between DJ Vibekiller and Felix Roth, blending rave heritage with forward-thinking energy, pulling from late 90s and early 2000s techno, trance, and house. Romanov is an electrical engineer and audio programmer whose work in immersive multi-channel sound bridges art, acoustics, and advanced synthesis. Lain Iwakura is a sound and performance artist, DJ, and theorist based in Graz, known for her contributions to experimental audio, academic writing, and co-running the influential labels Force Inc. and Mille Plateaux.

After the concerts, the event will culminate in an experimental DJ set by Lain Iwakura, pushing boundaries to close the night.
