SUDDEN INFANT
Born 1965 in Basel, Switzerland. Currently based in Berlin, Germany

Joke Lanz is one of the most prolific and profound artists working in the border zones where performance and body art meet Improvisation and Noise.
In his Sudden Infant guise, Lanz creates a unique blend of physical sound poetry and epileptic noise bursts, using contact microphones, loops, tapes etc. The result is an extreme form of musique concrète that juxtaposes spasmodic gibbering with a battery of disorienting electronics.

Free studies in Performance Art, Noise music, Turntablism.

The Music is as minimal or back to the roots as it get’s, just from another angle of view, his music is very direct and comes along with at least 20 Tons of wierdness and RawPower. For this new album he collaborated with the One and Only Roli Mosimann who is one of the CO Founder of the New York No-Wave Revolution in the early 80's worked together with the Swans , New Order, Marilyn Manson or the Young Gods and Recorded that Album as a Trio together with Christian Weber (bass) and Alexandre Babel (drums) Joke Lanz is Doing the Elecronics and Loopings , and the Result is one of Voodoo Rhythm's most Brute and Destructive record ever.
