BABAU is the duo of Luigi Monteanni and Matteo Pennesi. They’re both also founders of Artetetra Records, a tape label concerned with the latest developments in the concepts of digital folklore and transglobal exoticism during late globalisation. BABAU is best defined as a pastiche combining the fascination for World Music 2.0, Fourth World and Mondo Voyeurism with the latest abstractions in computer music’s compositional techniques – in their words, quinto mondo music. Over the years they have played festivals such as Club To Club, Fusion, Saturnalia, Outernational Days, Mondo Muzak and Camp Cosmic, and have collaborated with Kiosk Radio, NTS, Sun Araw, Senyawa and many others.
