Simultan is a collaboration between Werner Dafeldecker and Simon James Phillips.
Phillips creates an array of sounds from the piano as the original source. Dafeldecker then carefully gleans his selection from this material and processes it via analogue tape loop machine, creating small structures which in turn feed the impulses of Phillips – a methodical entanglement. Their live process is one of careful offering, discernment, and reflection - creating a sonic environment of acoustic/electro-acoustic sounds, rich with timbral and structural nuance.
Simon James Phillips: Australian pianist currently based in Berlin. Although classically-trained, his work primarily involves improvisation and experimentalism, and is greatly influenced by electronic music.
Werner Dafeldecker: Austrian composer, double bassist and guitarist, born in 1964 in Vienna, Austria.
