Tongue in the Mind
Tongue in the MInd er kærlighedsbarnet mellem den grænsesøgende DJ og forfatter Juliana Huxtable og metalmusiker og komponist Joe Rinaldo Heffernan aka Jealous Orgasm. Projektet begyndte i New York City i starten af 2010’erne som fritflydende improviseret performancekunst, men har gradvist udviklet sig til heftig, højkonceptuel prog-metal med spoken word og elementer af klassiske arrangementer. Sidste år sluttede producer Dylan Shir aka Via App sig til Tongue in the Mind for at føje ekstra dybde og dansegulvsmystik til bandets støjende, ornamenterede lyd i form af svimlende samples, elektroniske trommer, synths og sekvenser.
Tongue in the Mind er umulige at kategorisere i deres kompromisløse tilgang til musikken. Ikke desto mindre har deres dragende energi bragt dem til nogle af verdens mest prestigefyldte scener, herunder Performa 15 på MoMA, Primavera Sound og Rewire Festival. Nu er turen endelig kommet til ALICE!
Otay:onii
Med en kunstnerisk praksis, der strækker sig over musik, filmkomposition, performance og installationer, udforsker den kinesiske berlin-baserede kunstner Otay:onii aka Lane Shi grænserne mellem lyd og følelser. Hun har i den grad vakt opsigt på den internationale avantgardescene med sine performative og musikalske værker. Her navigerer hun fra humoristiske indslag til de barske realiteter for immigranter fra tredjeverdenslande og rodfæstede østlige perspektiver, som hun deler med den vestlige verden i et forsøg på at bygge bro over kløfterne. Otay:oniis performances er rå, provokerende og smukke, når hun udfolder sin vokal i usandsynlige eksperimenter.
Otay:onii har tidligere beriget publikum verden over med koncerter på festivaler som CTM og Roadburn, og opsigtsvækkende performances på institutioner som Harvard University og Ming Contemporary Art Museum. På ALICE udfolder hun materialet fra "True Faith Ain't Blind", et album, hvor klassisk musik og metal smelter sammen i intense kompositioner for klaver og vokal, og hvor der åbnes op for en lytning uden forudindtagelser. Glæd dig en en unik aften i selskab med en af de mest interessante stemmer på avantgardescenen lige nu.

“W.C. is crushingly eerie, leaving you at the mercy of Otay:onii's tone as she draws
melody from the muck” – NPR

of many axes along which Shi situates her sound and themes” – Pitchfork

In English:
All boundaries dissolve when NYC’s Tongue in the Mind (Juliana Huxtable, Joe Rinaldo Heffernan, and Dylan Shir) explores the intersection of high-concept prog-metal, spoken word, and dancefloor mysticism at ALICE this April. Opening the evening is the Chinese Berlin-based artist Otay:onii, delivering intense compositions that blend metal, piano, and experimental vocals in equal measure.
Tongue in the Mind
Tongue in the Mind is the love child of boundary-pushing DJ and writer Juliana Huxtable and metal musician and composer Joe Rinaldo Heffernan, aka Jealous Orgasm. The project began in New York City in the early 2010s as free-flowing improvisational performance art but has gradually evolved into bold, high-concept prog-metal infused with spoken word and elements of classical arrangements. Last year, producer Dylan Shir, aka Via App, joined Tongue in the Mind to bring extra depth and dancefloor mysticism to the band’s noisy, ornate sound, introducing dizzying samples, electronic drums, synths, and sequences.
Tongue in the Mind is impossible to categorize, embracing a fearless and uncompromising approach to music. Nevertheless, their captivating energy has landed them on some of the world’s most prestigious stages, including Performa 15 at MoMA, Primavera Sound, and the Rewire Festival. Now, they’re finally coming to ALICE!
Otay:onii
With an artistic practice that spans music, film composition, performance, and installations, Otay:onii, aka Lane Shi, explores the borders between sound and emotion. Her performative and musical works have generated significant attention on the international avant-garde stage. Here, she navigates everything from humor to the harsh realities of third-world immigrants, offering rooted Eastern perspectives to the Western world in an attempt to bridge divides. Otay:onii’s performances are raw, provocative, and beautiful, as she unfolds her voice in unlikely experiments.
Otay:onii has captivated audiences worldwide with performances at festivals like CTM and Roadburn, as well as at distinguished venues like Harvard University and the Ming Contemporary Art Museum. At ALICE, she will present material from "True Faith Ain't Blind" – an album where classical music and metal intertwine through intense compositions for piano and voice, inviting listeners to experience music without preconceptions. Look forward to an extraordinary evening with one of the most intriguing voices on the avant-garde scene today.
