TASKMASTER is a solo harsh noise project currently based in Montreal, QC. TASKMASTER has been active since 2005; has released on labels such as Troniks, Harsh Head Rituals, Trash Rituals, rundownsun, Militant Walls, Absurd Exposition and White Centipede Noise, etc.
Kahraba (previously “sotemm/ⲥⲱⲧⲙ”) is a demonstration that music and performance has no barrier for entry. With a focus on No Input Mixing Board (NIMB) techniques and brandishing a worn-through hand-me-down mixing board, Michael Boulos has cut their teeth over the last two years facilitating, attending, and performing experimental and noise shows in and around Ontario and Montreal. With an understanding and appreciation for the performance of noise and experimental music, Kahraba consolidates what appeals to Boulos the most. The result is a focus on ebs, flows, hums, pulses, blares, and shrieks.
