Artist bio
electronic composer ◦ sound curator
Vlady Che (b. 1995) a classically trained musician from Kyïv, Ukraine, whose individual musical path was initiated in 2016 by repudiating the strictness of conservative music frames. While performing under a set of aliases — ϙue, dj chlorophyll, Vlady is currently a part of the following formations:
- Biorhythm (est. 2019, UA): a multidisciplinary art collective and psychoacoustics research lab
- In 2022, joined Bassiani (GE) team in its ICKPA festival offspring, where he curates and programs the festival’s stage of avant-garde electronics
- VIRA | dd/mm/yy (est. 2023, PT): action platform, educational & charity events series in support of Ukraine’s resistance
- Sounds Afield: an Erasmus+ project for European community radios
ϙue — being the main solo project — carries a spiritually-driven approach, which seeks to explore the concept of ego death and delve into the depths of consciousness through deep listening and human self-reflection. The diligently crafted soundscapes serve as a vessel for a profound exploration of the pre-natal human period, touching upon human trauma, transporting to a safe harbour of a primordial soundscape.
Transcending the natural and artificial, simultaneously embodying the genre of massive minimalism and defining contemporary Post-Ambient, ϙue delivers a conscious and panpsychistic experience. Each sound resonates with a delicate balance between vulnerability and strength, luring into the unknown and back again, comforting with the coldness of intimacy and the vastness of self-awareness.
Throughout the years, his creative collaborations span musical, sound art, and multidisciplinary creative projects.
