Marina Džukljev and Raed Yassin return to Morphine Raum to further explore the possibilities of electroacoustic music, delving into new combinations of sound formulas and timbral textures.

Marina Džukljev – Serbian pianist, educator and active performer in the fields of free improvisation, applied, contemporary and classical composed music. She is particularly recognizable for her non-traditional approach to playing the piano and exploring its sonorous possibilities, using extended techniques of playing the instrument in an original and exciting way. The unity of wide spectrum of expressive elements can be heard in her music: abstract, experimental, free jazz - all are embraced by the heritage of history of pianism.

Raed Yassin has been a key member in the Lebanese underground music scene for many years. He is a member of several bands and groups, including “A” Trio, PRAED among others. As a double bassist, he developed a personal and independent extended technique, by employing different preparations and objects on his instrument. His interest here relies heavily on textures, energies and vibrations, the density of volume and sound, rather than conventional melodic structures. As an electronic musician he uses multiple synthesizers and electronic devices to create dense and textural waves of sound.
