Artist
KRIS VANGO is currently based in Berlin and was born in Sydney, Australia, they have an extensive background in various multi-disciplinary artistries including graphic design, illustration, UX, video work, sound production and more recently alternative healing techniques including Tibetan sound bowl therapies, yoga teaching and astrology. They have collaborated with Berlin-based artist Lyra Pramuk and have just finished producing the next EP for fellow Berlin based Australian artist Mikey Woodbridge. Kris Vango's vision is to map and document our solar system through narrative sound, dedicating an album to each planetary body. Sonically, KRIS VANGO traverses a cross pollination and re-evolution of club music’s sonic textures, with a re-connecting of the Shamanic origins of uniting collectives into a shared experience–utilising genre and collaboration as tools to explore varying planetary landscapes. In live performance, Kris constructs a sonic journey that often feels like a tour through the cosmos, intentionally blending sounds of each planetary concept piece together with live instrumentation and voice manipulation; injecting falsetto harmonies seamlessly into contrasting abrasive beats and slow paced ambient meditations. Following on from debut pieces, ‘Ard’ (Earth/Golden Ratio Frequencies Label) and ‘Mother Moon’ (Moon/NVMPHS), in 2020 Kris is set to release Ravi (SUN), an album constructed from field recordings sourced though extensive travels in sun-soaked India, cent
