ANEZ - experimental electronic duo

ANEZ, founded in 2011, is a Berlin-based experimental electronic music duo of Hungarian musicians and sound artists Anesz Szalai and Zoltán Demeter. It explores the connections between the musicality of sound design atmospheres and the mysteries of the soul. Both artists have a background in music theory, classical, jazz and electronic music, from which they have developed a specific musical language system. Working in the intersection of music, sound, light and other complementary art forms, they collaborated with painters, writers and contemporary dancers over the years.

Plural, their latest project, is a musical dialogue and live sound design performance, where the duo creates a unique, improvisational composition each time. Their musical interaction is translated into the language of light by their collaborative partner and creative coder Zsolt Török.

Anesz Szalai is a Hungarian singer, composer and music teacher based in Berlin. Her work explores the boundaries of the human voice and its function in composition and performance.

Since her childhood she studied classical singing, and holds a degree in jazz singing and performance.

In 2011, she started her main project ANEZ, the experimental electronic duo with Zoltan Demeter.

Diving into the Berlin scene of improvised music and discovering the possibilities of altering human voice in real time, inspired her to develop a unique musical language.

Zoltan Demeter - musician, composer and sound designer - studied jazz and electronic music composition in Hungary. Besides ANEZ, he's working as a sound engineer and media technician in Berlin. Triggered environments, visualization, randomness vs. structure, and the technical aspects of merging art forms are his focus of interest.
