Les Biologistes Marins)
Les Biologistes Marins is a project that fuses music, water, and video material. Driven by the curiosity of Beatrice Miniaci (classical flutist and performer) and Anton Sconosciuto (drummer, producer and composer).
Their work explores the intersection of sound and water narratives, probing how artistic creation connects to contemporary issues such as sea temperature rise, water consumption/waste, and noise pollution.
What began as a musical exploration based on improvisation from water-source videos has quickly evolved into a multidisciplinary research, examining their relationship with water and the meditative, dream-like state unique to improvisation that music and water can bring.
Their aim is to relinquish self-consciousness through an intimate reflection on our connection to water, capturing this research in sound. Long-evolving sessions of improvisation
Manu Louis
Belgium born, now Berlin based, he studied composition with legendary composer Fréderic Rzewski, electronic music on the internet, and dancing during his concerts.
A Passionate singer, and knob agitator, he also plays the guitar in his own unique punk jazz way...
Equally at home working with electronic dance, classical or jazz musicians, Manu has performed his stuff from completely acoustic solo up to 200 wind players and everything in between.
In his music style doesn't exist. He mixes things that cross his path, and creates new adventures of provocative and decontextualized juxtapositions. His general blueprint remains the same throughout, but the ingredients he uses vary; from dissident chanson française, genial dilettante, avant-garde composers, new beat, old hits, art-pop & hard bop.
Under his name, Manu has released three LP's and several 7" on Igloo Records, Le Pacifique records and New Pangea. Recent years saw him perform his electronic solo shows more than 500 times in Europe and Asia (including: Bimhuis [Amsterdam], Fusion Festival [Lärz], Tremor Fest [Acores], La Casa Encendida [Madrid], PopKultur [Berlin], Tsutavo o Nest [Tokyo], DDC [Beijing] and Contrapop [Ramsgate]). Travelling with a village of electronic instruments, and video projections from pop stars to animals, he delivers passionate performances that switch gear into impromptu discotheque.
With Sylvain Chauveau, he co-founded Zero Carbon Records (an impossible label converted into 'no oil/no electricity' tours). With Mary Ocher, he has co-curated the Underground Institute Festival (Berlin). And with Adrien Lambinet, he co-directed 'Music for Trees', a tribute to Garrett List.
