Some of the most gifted and creative electronic music artists have performed at Semibreve, an annual festival hosted in Portugal. We have seen the spellbinding performances of Grouper, Alva Noto, Avalon Emerson, Actress, William Basinski, Suzanne Ciani, Caterina Barbieri, Alessandro Cortini, Laurel Halo, and Oliver Coates, who are among the festival's finest performers.
Audience members were in awe of Grouper's mesmerizingly gorgeous music, and Alva Noto's experimental and minimalistic sounds pushed the envelope of electronic music. Actress's glitchy and surreal beats fascinated the crowd while Avalon Emerson's eclectic mix of techno and house music kept the crowd dancing. A surreal environment was produced by William Basinski's ambient soundscapes, and Suzanne Ciani's iconic Buchla synthesizer performance was an unforgettable experience. Complex and fascinating modular synth compositions by Caterina Barbieri were paired with deep analog synth sounds by Alessandro Cortini. One of the festival's highlights was Laurel Halo's creative, genre-defying music, and Oliver Coates' cello performances gave the electronic music lineup a special, emotive touch.
Semibreve continues to bring together some of the most creative and skilled performers in the electronic music field, giving its audience a one-of-a-kind and life-changing event.
