Petra Hermanova - Dronefolk / Sacred/ Autoharp
Petra Hermanova is a Berlin-based singer and composer working with the autoharp, voice and pipe organ. Her solo debut In Death’s Eyes (2023) drifts between song and heavy distorted drones, utilizing techniques from both folk and sacred traditions to grapple with the spiritual and earthly dimensions of devastating loss. In Death’s Eyes received international acclaim and several award nominations including the Czech Grammy.
Since 2023, she has performed extensively solo and with ensembles in churches, contemporary art venues, monuments, and theatres. She recently composed music for the documentary film Lapilli, which premiered at the Karlovy Vary IFF. In 2024 she was a resident of SHAPE+ Platform. Prior to her solo debut, Hermanova toured internationally with previous projects including extensive sound and visual collaborations with Jon Eirik Boska as well as her critically acclaimed band Fiordmoss.

VÍZ - Industrial / Folk / Giallo Horror
VÍZ is the avant-garde solo project of Hungarian Transylvanian multidisciplinary artist Réka Csiszér, in which she delves into the depths of Eastern European melancholy, blending post-industrial textures, ghostly glossolalia, the darker shades of Hungarian folk, and audiovisual noir.
Csiszér’s work is profoundly cinematic — Lynchian disorientation in time and space emerges from the very first sonic clues. The compositions of Mihály Vig for Béla Tarr’s films, Eastern
European folk horror, and noir aesthetics are key references to unlocking the sealed universe of Csiszér. On her latest record 'Danse des Larmes', that was recently released via Athens based
cult label Heat Crimes; dense electroacoustic textures melt into gothic vocal lines, forming a non-existent giallo soundtrack.
VÍZ’s live act has been described as eerie and captivating—oscillating between avant-garde sci-fi opera and ritualistic incantations, where Csiszér’s haunting vocal performance immediately calls to mind shadow-pop icons like Diamanda Galás, Julie Cruise, and Lisa Gerrard. The experience is visceral — one you can breathe, touch, and lose yourself in completely.

Marc Melià - Electronic / Ambient / Minimal
Born in Majorca, composer and producer Marc Melià is known for his ability to find beauty and emotion within the circuitry of his synthesizer, employing a minimalist style.
Currently based in Brussels, he has spent the past decade composing, collaborating and producing for a diverse range of notable figures in the French music scene, including Flavien Berger, Roméo Poirier, Françoiz Breut and Lonely Drifter Karen among others.
In an era of digital technological abundance, Marc Melià embraces constraints, often crafting his albums and performances around a select few options. Yet from these constraints emerges a stunning universe, brimming with rich textures and elegant harmonies. For his debut album, he exclusively utilized a Sequential Prophet. With his third LP, Pièces Monophoniques, set for release on Vlek in May 2025, he returns armed solely with an analog monophonic synthesizer and handcrafted MIDI sequences recorded directly onto a single stereo track. These recordings aim to reveal beauty within the confines of simplicity and limitation.
