"...seduces, scares and embraces you all at once..." (INTERNATIONAL DJ MAGAZINE)
"...a stunningly lush, pulsating slab of whispered electronica..." (FLY GLOBAL MUSIC MAGAZINE)
"...hybrid going on mutant..." (GUARDIAN UK)
COLLIDERSCOPE combine off-world, skeletal electronica, live vocals and surreal storybook animations in their ethereal live cinema performance and DVD "No Man's Land". With vocals in Burmese, English and an invented "No Man's language", Colliderscope explores the space between dreaming and waking, lost identities and found objects, where meaning is created from random events, and definition from the blurring of boundaries. Stylish, elegant and sinister, their alien lullabies envelop and mesmerize, warped beauty enfolding an unsettling and compelling “No Man’s Land”
Rated by the New Zealand Herald as one of the highlights of the Auckland Fringe Festival 2009, Colliderscope have stunned and captivated New Zealand audiences with their unique and powerful live shows, their set twisting and turning through pulsating slabs of whispered electronica, bent out of shape blues ballads and haunting cinematic soundscapes, all merged seamlessly with abstract animations to evolve into a multi-media artwork. ,br>
Their videos have been shown on the Arts Channel on Sky TV NZ, and on NatGeo Music in Italy., and a documentary feature on their work was screened on TV NZ's "Asia Downunder" series. Audio tracks have featured on compilation albums internationally (BBC DJ Charlie Gillett's "Sound of the World 2007" compilation) and for NZ Fashion week 2008,. and they have presented their work as part of the Artists Talks series at Auckland Art Gallery.
The audio album "No Man's Land" was released in 2007, and the DVD including additional unreleased material is coming soon.
