HEX VORTEX 
HEX VORTEX is the brainchild of Berlin's NOISE TESTAMENT festival creator, known for his booking activities as OBNOXIOUS OUROBOROS. After having played guitar and bass in a dozen bands from 1995-2020 he moved to the Harz Mountains right before the pandemic started, spent countless walks thru the mountains and sleepless nights to come up with the idea, the sound and the setup of HEX VORTEX. Using his musical experience of three decades and improvisational talent to record everything live on the spot onto two tracks and ever evolving his authentic style of heavy psyched out ritualistic industrial dub, harsh brain melt drone, weird electro kraut and hard hitting rhythmic freeform noise.

David Wallraf 
David Wallraf works with noise in Hamburg. The resulting audio works explore the acoustics of the uncanny: Field recordings, electromagnetic waves and obsolete audio technology are woven into soundtracks for the nightmare of ‘capitalist realism’. Wallraf's works are released internationally. In February 2025, the album Crudelta Necessaria is released on the Berlin label Karlrecords, and around 80 records have been released since 2013.
In addition to concerts and various collaborations (currently with the Korean noise artist Jena Jang), David performs live soundtracks to surrealist silent films. Following the works of Luis Buñuel, Maya Deren and Jean Genet, a soundtrack for Sergei Eisenstein's Battleship Potemkin is planned for 2025.
