THE ART SCHOOL UNION

Svartvit is a Dutch harsh noise project that was started in 2008 by sound artist Kevin Jansen. Through the years the project has evolved both in presentation and sound. Starting of as a very monotonous study in textural noises it has turned into a direct channeling of anger, frustration and the questioning of modern day society through sound & performance. Svartvit takes influences from a wide spectrum including but definitely not limited to; Vienna Aktionism, socio-political topics, underground punk music, Russian constructivism as well as his contemporaries like Sword Heaven, The Rita, Prurient & Vomir. The result is a very personal and emotional presentation of a troubled mind, overtaking and often physical. Everything is presented with a down to earth approach that takes its ethics from a background in DIY punk culture & anarchism.

Releases have appeared on labels all over the world on both CD and Cassette, some Vinyl is planned for the near future. Through the years Svartvit has built quite a reputation for himself. Aggressive and spectacular live shows that aren’t to be missed, appearing all over Europe, keeping up with a quite fanatical touring schedule.

EX-SERVICEMEN
Elusive experimentalists dwelling in an interzone between dub and Throbbing Gristle-era industrial, Ex-Servicemen's live performances generate soundscapes born of post-industrial geographic displacement and cognitive schisming. The drugs are cheap and everything is on fire.

SPECULUM
A new project from Andrew McQuaid (A View From Nihil), channeling blanket-mono channel meditative drone via the edge lands of Tarkovsky's Stalker. This new project is informed as much by Malevich's Suprematism as Andrew's previous immersion in Harsh Noise Wall though preferring volume and texture to distortion abuse.
