Bio
Electrosmog is one word we use in order to describe the sudatory music with which the illeist collective takes away the breath of its audiences. And it doesn’t come as a surprise that the trio’s ideal environment is the energetic-flashlight atmosphere of a club. On stage, the illeists evaporate massive bass sounds and pumping beats.
The musical core of the collective - vocals,electronics, bass and drums - is thereby regularly complemented by special guests, giving every performance an unexpected momentum. The music the illeist collective produces can be described as an electro-organic mix reminiscent of bands such as Soulwax, Digitalism or Chemical Brothers. Together with the lights and video installations by Pablo Weber the sound fuses to a fascinating multi-layered performance on stage.
