2M2, created in 2016, is a swiss-chinese duo of experimental, improvised noise music, a duo led by the swiss drummer Maxime Hänsenberger and the chinese electronic noise musician and performer Mei Zhiyong.
2M2 plays loud and intenses performances. Their acts are a confrontation between sonic explosions made by loud monolithic multi-frequencial electronic walls of harsh noise sounds and a heavy textural acoustic drumset with lots of free jazz and grindcore materials...
After a first tour in Switzerland and France (2017), then a second one in China, Hong Kong and Japan (2018), the project put out a release on tape with two recorded live acts from their chinese tour. In winter 2019, Mei and Maxime spent also some days in a studio in Switzerland after playing gigs around to record new materials. They're actually working on it for a next release.
Mei Zhiyong is born in 1984 in Shangdong, China, founder of Fuzztape label and member of Nojiji noise group. Mei Zhiyong is one of the most important international noise experimenters and hardware noise instrument DIYERs in China. He is also active in independent film and photography. Mei Zhiyong considers noise as the carrier to break all the rules. Only impaling into nothingness can make you get rid of the contradiction between voice and body, and between body and mind. Strong physical action and the obsession of electronic / industrial pieces modification make each of his live performance unique.
Mei Zhiyong has toured in Europe, Japan and China several times since 2014. He is now becoming the new blood of the noise and the experimental music scene in Asia.
Maxime Hänsenberger, born in 1988, is active in several musical scenes for more than fifteen years. He started to play music in different bands in the metal/punk/grindcore scenes and went later into Jazz and improvised music. While he’s still involved into these previous mentioned scenes, he's also a part of the experimental, noise, improvised and free music.
His actual main projects are Convulsif, Nostromo, Exorbitant Prices Must Diminish, Secrétariat. He also regullary does/did collaborations with differents artists/projects like Insub Meta Orchestra, Mumakil, Steve Buchanan, Anton Ponomarev, Antoine Chessex...
Svartvit (NL)
Harshnoise
Exploring the boundaries of sound since 2009. Svartvit sculpts corporeal sonic landscapes that pulsate with raw intensity. Through extensive manipulation acoustic sounds are held captive in the liminal space between their point of origin & grotesque indecipherable slabs of distortion.
