Vahid E. Hosseini (b. 1984, Tehran) is a Berlin-based composer and performer. His work bridges Persian and Western traditions, exploring the paradoxes between the two within contemporary music. Hosseini studied with leading composers across Europe, and his pieces have been performed by ensembles such as mdi ensemble (Milan), Stuttgarter Philharmoniker, and Zagros Ensemble (Helsinki). He has received international prizes including Premio Alberghini (2019) and Premio Magone (2020).

Idol Worship [Experimental, Folk, Drone]
Idol Worship is a trans-Atlantic experimental duo of Severin (voice, viola, guitar, electronics) and Yetzer Hatov (accordion, balalaika). Severin, an ex-DJ and Appalachian-born artist, brings neofolkloric noise and liturgical rhythms, while Hatov draws on Klezmer traditions and folk instruments. Together they merge drone, post-punk, and devotional sound into experimental rituals that link the past with the present.

Angstresonanz [Drone / Noise]
Angstresonanz (“resonance of fear”) is a project created by Dabria and Katharina. Their performances blend the prolonged funeral sound of trumpet-like siren drones, crackling noise walls, and ghostly singing. The project draws on emotional burdens and frustrations, while also seeking beauty and creation in the awareness and reflection of one’s inner nightmare.
