Aldana Duoraan & HMOT
Aldana Duoraan is a Khomus (mouth harp) player from the Sakha Republic and now based in Prague. HMOT (aka Stas Shärifullá) is a Quraysi (flute) player of Eastern Siberian Bashkir origin, based in Basel. With their traditional instruments and a computer, they create ‘resynthesised’ experimental music from North Asia.

Born in South Carolina and based in Berlin, this folk-alchemist creates a unique and irresistible wall-of-sound with trombone, circular breathing, a few banjos and a lot of electronics.
