At midnight on Friday the 18th of July at Teateret Vårt the stage is set for a live remix done "the Punkt way". Stefano and Holand have heard rumors about Endresens unique vocals as well as about the Punkt-duos equivalently unique remixing, and they look forward to having their own music treated in this way.
- It's a great honor to be invited to attend Moldejazz as part of Sidsel Endresen's Artist in Residence program, says Jan Bang to Moldejazz.no
- We have collaborated with Sidsel ever since we started in 2005, and the whole concept of live remixing has been developed in cooperation with her other, mainly Norwegian, musical improvisers such as Arve Henriksen, Eivind Aarset, Nils Petter Molvær, and Audun Kleive.
- Live remix has, ever since the start, been one of the main elements of the Punkt-festival in Kristiansand. The audio from the main stage is sent to another nearby scene/studio-hybrid (called the Alfarom, or Alpha Room in english) where the audience can hear a de/re-construction of the concert they just attended. In this intimate setting the music is sampled and processed by musicians and procucers - remixers in short.
- We look forward to, in cooperation with Sidsel Endresen, bringing the Punkt-concept to this years festival in Molde!.
