discovery
the compromise is not possible
is the title of an hour-long composition written for female voice, drums, electric guitar and organ by Slobodan Kajkut, an independent contemporary composer from Serbia. It premiered in 2005 in Graz as a commissioned piece for "Hörfest", a festival for contemporary music.
Written to be performed at churches only, it is a combination of traditional contemporary composition techniques with Rock and Heavy Metal: Harmonies, rythmic changes and silence meets distorted guitars, feedback orgies and drums inspired by Speed and Death Metal.
Three years after its premiere at St. Andrä Church in Graz, it was reperfomed by the same musicians at the same location and recorded and released as a double LP by the austrian independent label Wire Globe Recordings.
For all of you, who wonder who Slobodan is: "The Striggles" - rings a bell? he's part of them, among other bands like "Jubbooko sa Negrass", "Mizar" and "Betty Blue".
On november 4th 2009 "the compromise is not possible" will be performed at the parish church (Stadtpfarrkirche) of Linz at 20:30.

biography:
Lives and works in Vienna and Linz.
Started using recordplayers as live-instruments in the late 90s after some intense years playing
electric bass in the fields of crossover-rock.
the birth of the improv-duo "das fax mattinger" - together with Alex Wallner on guitar -
and moving from Linz to Vienna right after the millenium-turn pushed the active and passive
experience with "new" music in all terms.
First onstage-confrontations with e.g. Arnold "noid" Haberl, dieb13, Noel Akchote,
Michael Fischer, Hannes Raffaseder were established, gigs at several venues and festivals followed,
including Kaleidophon/Ulrichsberg, Konfrontationen/Nickelsdorf, Turning Sounds/Warsaw,
Transart/Bolzano, Komponistenforum/Mittersill, Phonotaktik/Vienna, Saptamana Muzicii
Contemporane/Bucharest, etc.
After years of playing solo and as part of small- and medium-size ensembles,
the introduction to the world of contemporary composer bernhard lang opened the
doors to concert halls, highlighted by the successful performance of the
music-theater-piece "i hate mozart" together with klangforum wien, dieb13, vocal ensemble nova,
which is documented on a 2-SA-CD and 1-DVD-Box on Col Legno.
Latest solo-release is a five-inch
diy-vinyl-cutout on entr'acte (London). A Berlin-edition of 20 unique "copies"
will be presented and available at Akademie der Künste during the T.I.T.O.-residency.
Other (Co)Releases include CD(-R)s, Cassettes and Vinyl on labels like Longbox Recordings,
shameless, Transacoustic Research, Klanggalerie, Einklang Records.
Current projects range from a pseudo-acousmatic shadow-play,
the trio "b:f:n" (w/ cordula boesze, noid) to the prog-rock-outfit "dada boeff komplex".
