Double Affair is coming from Bratislava. The project was brought to life sometimes during 2004 by vowelly challenged composer Jozef Vlk who is sculpting, composing and arranging all of the songs. His former long-standing one-man-band and alter ego Doublefair booked by various experimental venues at home and abroad was oriented especially for solo laptop-electronic showings and performances, more experimenting with sounds and structures, using new technologies, filtering, processing and guitars. After years of performing in groups of contemporary music /vitebsk sucks, sleepy motion, teapeak and collaborations with various artists/, beside producing and directing his theatre company and years spending at his private black hole studio /producing soundtracks for various theatre and contemporary dance troups/, he decided to admit the idea to collaborate with other musicians again in Double Affair.
Sharing the same interest in technology as well as having similar taste in making music was decisive in forming the flexible band experimenting on the edge of electronics and acoustics. This helped shaping a yet more diverse, warmer and dynamic sound and create even more fragile, non-fixed and opened electronic compositions and improvisations. Characteristics elastic concepts, noisy minimal textures, processed electronic experimentation with inherent acoustic tickling of accompanying instruments into a shapes, songs or fragments.
Inherent level, where the sonic structures are rising is the intuitive work with the sound shapes. Sampling is even no more repetitive instrument – in the sence of morphing of any sound input. The purpose is to create retarded sound structure composed from componental layers and finally rise the result affected like song or sound construction.
Expressions of live double affair are conditioned with the state of things where the work of the group is occuring – it’s the work in permanent progress. More or less, it stays on its electronical and experimental principles.
