MoHa !

MoHa! play somewhat loud music influenced by incredibly varied sources. Some say the duo deal in sonic splatter, in a brew of improvisation, noise, computer music and probably some more. Others say it is reminiscent of the conversation your mate has at you on the weekend in a club when he’s had too much to drink and is telling you how great everything is at 100mph. Only instead of your mate it is actually R2D2, which leads you to believe maybe that someone did put something in your drink. In any case it is the work of two young men from Norway currently residing in Berlin. Anders Hana  on guitar, keyboard and a pallete of effect pedals, and Morten J. Olsen on drums and SuperCollider. Formed as a live project, their shows are a challenge to describe, and very hard to categorize. A broad spectrum of sounds and silences. Anders Hana's devastating punk/metal guitar is draped jaggedly over some of the finest drumming I've ever heard and then regurgitated from Olsen's laptop Two sides both compliment and confront each other, with sharp and mechanical movements on one, free flowing and unconstrained gestures on the other. Amongst their tightly synchronized riffs that seem impossibly mathematical and precise, there exists a looseness and nonchalance that stand MoHa! out as a band to watch out for.
