A program of all Australian works for combinations of acoustic and electronic instruments, performed by Decibel. This program showcases a number of works from Australia from early electronic experiments of Percy Grainger, to works by ensemble members. Fusing guided improvisation and new classical approaches, Decibel have a unique combination of composers, sound artists, performers and programmers that contribute to a developed and refined music making. The have developed new approaches to composition and music interpretation using networked tablet computers and electro acoustic techniques.
Since their formation in 2009, Decibel have commissioned over 15 new Australian works, making them one of Australia’s leading interpreters of Australian new music. They celebrate Australian works past and present, and in particular the works from their home city of Perth, Western Australia.
Decibel is a new music ensemble devoted to performing works that explore the nexus of acoustic and electronic instruments. Pioneering unique electronic score formats and giving electronic music instruments a voice in the acoustic space, Decibel also arrange electronic works for live performance. Decibel’s annual program 2009-2010 won the 2011 AMC/APRA Art Music Awards Inaugural Award for Excellence in Experimental Music. In 2010 they released their first album “Disintegration: Mutation” on Canberra (Aus) label hellosQuare and in 2012 release an album of Alvin Lucier works on New York label Pogus. They will be launching their new LP, Stasis Estatic, during this tour.

An evening with the legendary Polish Radio Experimental Studio PRES! Lecture with projections of long-unreleased original masterpieces composed in the Studio between late 50-ies and early 80-ies by Krzysztof Penderecki, Eugeniusz Rudnik, Bohdan Mazurek, Boguslaw Schaeffer and KEW. Four sets of live music consisting of new versions, improvisations “on” and “for” as well as variations on the same pieces of masters of today's contemporary music: Phil Durrant, Thomas Lehn, DJ Lenar, Mikolaj Palosz, Eddie Prévost, Maciej Sledziecki, John Tilbury. Polish Radio Experimental Studio was established in 1957 by Józef Patkowski and was among the first institutions of that kind in the world. Its extensive use and experiments with scores, acquaintance with animated movies and non-dogmatic creativity sheds a new light on the history of electronic music. What is it from today's perspective? A reservoir of techniques? Aesthetic genre? A new "schizofonic" way of listening?
