About XYZ Sound Collective
XYZ Sound Collective is composed of international artists working and experimenting with spatial sound, a movement in music that originated in parallel with the first electronic music back in the 1950s. The movement became characteristic of the direction of artists who still today use the revolutionary technology to focus on new ways of experiencing sound.
At XYZ Sound Collective, it is especially the spatial experience of sound that is worked with, and although the collective's artists express themselves in different ways, it is always with an interest in the interaction that occurs with the audience when the sound is made present and bodily.
XYZ Sound Collective performs both together and separately, but is based in Copenhagen, where they are behind their own festival LYDFELTER. Here, members of the collective perform with the aim of giving the festival participants unique sound experiences and pushing the understanding of what sound can be. The festival's universe is easily accessible and engaging - both in a figurative sense and quite concretely, when the audience, for example, is invited in and becomes a co - creator of a sound work.
XYZ Sound Collective, as it looks today, was started back in 2018. The name refers to the mathematical terms for depth, length and breadth and emphasizes the sound collective's common vision to spread the knowledge of a more three-dimensional experience of sound.
