As a composer and harpist she performs under the moniker rouge-ah and in ensembles like the duo II/III, the fluid Zhlehtet and the experimental quartet Sujevera. Her artistic and creative strategies are built around her intermedia works involving feminist theories and practices. In 2018 she released her last full-length album “bare” at Kamizdat.

In the composition námunámu she puts herself in a role of a mineral cluster, which is being attacked by a foreign organism trying to fragmentize her uniformity.

► Lip Rouge · PLY ◄

Lip Rouge is an experimental music duo by Karmen Ponikvar and Eva Mulej. They explore sounds with analog synthesis, voice, recorder and different instruments. Their inspiration are early electronic music, vocal innovations and made-up stories. With creating soundscapes they form a music vocabulary of sonic frequencies and altered sounds.

The composition PLY combines field recordings, voice in relation to effects and analog synthesis. It is a sonic response to the reflection on colonies as multidimensional phenomena.

► Kristina Kočan & Samo Šalamon · tiger ◄

Kristina Kočan (1981) is a poet and translator. In 2016 she received a Ph.D. in contemporary American poetry at the University of Maribor, Slovenia. A year before she began intensely working with musicians, writing lyrics for a Slovenian band Brest and dedicating herself to her performance projects. In 2018 she recorded her first album titled “im|pro s|prehod”. Samo Šalamon (1978) is a renown Slovenian jazz guitarist, composer and a recording artist. He has recorded more than 200 original compositions and released more than 22 albums.

The song “tiger” is taken from Kočan’s collection of poems “selišča”. The poems touches the European colonization of the United States: Tyger was the ship used by the Dutch captain Adriaen Block during his 1613 voyage to the East Coast and the present day Hudson River.

Natja Janžekovič is a violinist, keyboardist and vocalist, known for her musical tandem with the do-it-yourself singer-songwriter Tovariš Strmoglavljen.

► Kikiriki · Naval Cry ◄

Kikiriki (Nina Farič) is a noise artist playing experimental freestyle noise of all kinds. She uses different DIY gadgets such as synths and micro theremins. She has released numerous albums of studio and live recordings.

The composition “Naval Cry” illustrates the colonization of lands, where their natural balance is disturbed by entering the territory. Population, animals and nature in general suffer under occupation. The first association is the sea, through which intruders sail and disturb the natural order of things and living beings, so the song also includes sounds that illustrate the cry or call of a whale, human singing and in some places threatening sounds that break the silence. The song has been released on a split cassette with Neo-Cymex titled “Sonic Interaction with theremins”.

► beepblip · Anthive ◄

► Kezz · Odide ◄

Kezz (Tamara Ristić) is a producer, composer, DJ, live looping artist and music performer from Serbia, based in Ljubljana, Slovenia. She performs solo with her voice, loop machine, keyboard, sampler and acoustic instruments, mixing the line between a performer and a DJ. In July she will release her third album Elektroizvorika.

“Odide” is a song inspired by migration, the phenomenon of disappearing and sprouting new groups of people and new relationships. At the same time the title is a word play: “Odidi” means go away, but “Odi de” in old Serbian also means come here.

► Kikimore · Živa (Mix) ◄

Kikimore (Katarina Legat Blomstedt, Staša Guček, Sara Pegam) is a collective of sound researchers walking the line between noise and ambient electronic improvisation, constructing new soundscapes each time anew. They emphasize the collective creation and group learning based on the principles of DIY and DIWO – do-it-yourself and do-it-with-others. With their recording Živa (in original 52-minutes long piece) they are expanding their ethos from soundmaking to recording and postproduction.

About Access Frame:
The series of compilations titled Access Frame aim to present a wide spectrum of local alternative music (with emphasis on electronic and experimental music) that has found its safe haven on the internet. The never before encountered entwinement of technology, society, making music and ownership rights has been causing a serious conflict between free culture and the outdated and exploitative concepts of copyright. Adhering to the spirit of free access, online labels are the first in the struggle for equal access and a more fair copyright (facilitated by the introduction of the Creative Commons license).
