Wolf Eyes & DJ Nigga Fox

(USA & Portugal) 
* World premiere
A surprising (?) encounter between Michigan’s noise institution and the beat prodigy from the Príncipe label, in a first and exclusive performance showcasing the outcome of an artistic residency conceived in collaboration with Galeria Zé dos Bois. Despite their distinct backgrounds, one can discern a shared intuition for venturing into uncharted sonic territories, each starting from their respective “genres” - an intuition that here finds the time and space to bloom into a mosaic made of seemingly disparate pieces in pursuit of meaning. Especially because, and despite how unlikely this alliance might seem, there is absolute belief in these values, not only given the work already accomplished (Wolf Eyes’ hundred-plus releases over nearly three decades, and Nigga Fox’s ongoing reinvention from “O Meu Estilo” to “Chá Preto”), but also due to the immense potential glimpsed with each step taken by these artists. A potential which is here amplified by their generational, geographical, and social differences, all converging in the search for a new plane of existence. It’s hard to imagine being more expectant than this.
