With Sub_Bar, Eufonia launches a pioneering series of events exploring music, subfrequencies and the haptic sense.
Ignored by compositional practices, our sense of "touch" is home to our deepest memories and most instinctive reactions, talking a language of pain and pleasure, traumas and comfort, summer and winter. What happens when we stimulate it with music? We invited hearing, hearing impaired, and deaf artists to create original works using only subfrequencies, more specifically, frequencies between 30hz and 150hz: their compositions will be played through a powerful subwoofer system, transforming M.OU.CO into a musical pressure room, for a unique listening experience that activates the whole body.
Electronic music heavyweight Byetone, founder of the renowned label Raster Media, Deaf Rave mastermind dj Troi Lee, and subfrequencies expert Stefanie Egedy, are some of those responsible for composing these unique Sub Works, alongside other international diverse artists coming from sound and silence. These shows will be supported by “Blink Time”, a performance about time, mass and scale by Sub_Bar resident and Eufonia co-founder Atelier Francesco.
