He developed a soft spot for early industrial textures and pioneering ambient soundscapes while cutting his teeth in cult industrial band NID (1995-2005). A mysterious and shadowy figure he has ended up assembling sounds of such chilling creepiness that it makes Aphex Twin’s Selected Ambient Works Vol. 2 sound like a collection of sugar-coated lullabies. The sound of b°tong feels a lot like an agonizingly slow crawl through a dark tunnel where the dim light at the other end never gets closer.

Levente Bod joined the band three days after, and they worked together until the end of 2004. Together they created the albums Horsehead Nebula, Anything Else The Madness and English Letter with audio collage techniques. The line-up widened with artist Zoltán Fekete joining for the debut concert. Zoltán was responsible for the visuals of our live acts. He played a few times with Rovar17 but soon left to form his own band. Nowadays Rovar17 is Kálmán Pongrácz’s solo project. Different kinds of collaborations with other musicians, visual artists, performers and theatres occur though.

Drawn around the manipulation of sound and voice, it created its first source in intimate myths and landscapes, studied and rearranged in unusual ways: manipulated recordings, concrete sounds, feedbacks, singing voice, speaking voice, sound poetry , whispers , repetitive series. The Golem Mecanique project is a flexible creature, aka Karen Jebane only master of this polymorphic puppet. The basis of the sound landscape is through recorded voices, transformed,destroyed and reborn voices in a constant research of talking to the private memories of audience. A weird story telling. From 2007, the project had walked through different forms and practices. First was the computer and the works on softwares as live or logic but with the time, the articial skin of the sound was frustrating. Then the project turns itself to analogic, lo fi device as walkman, tape recorder, field recording, manipulated objects and instruments. Always the voice at the heart of it. And now a work of reflexion about the score of Cage, Lucier, the collective wandelweisser. The new form wants to work on sound installation and how the perception and the manipulation of a device could enter the intimate mind and reflexion. Tell musical stories as we were ancient prophets, another language, another plastic art. The project had performed several times in France, Germany with the constant desire of an always new musical proposal.
