Formed in 2006 Bellows is the collaborative project by Italian electro-acoustic composers Giuseppe Ielasi and Nicola Ratti. Continuously drawing a hypnotic maze with albums on Black Truffle, Boomkat Editions, Entr’acte, Shelter Press, Latency and Ielasi’s own cult Senufo Editions, Bellows offers a unique and ever changing experience. Convoking a complex sound palette between acousmatic sound and fractal beats, ghostly melodies and analogue electronics, Bellows live is completely improvised music taking off from their approach to recording, radical and uncompromising in its choices but welcoming and often warm in its output.

Luciano Maggiore is a Palermo-born, London-based musician whose work is characterised by the use of speakers and analogue/digital devices (samplers, CD players, Walkmans, tape recorders) and which addresses the performativity of the musical act, the perception of it, and the obscurity that emanates from it. His interests include mechanisms of sound diffusion, performance, repetition, endurance, non-human animal languages, dance and folklore. With Louie Rice, he started NO-PA/PA-ON, a project that deals with performing score-based works, both acoustic and amplified.
