"Black Summer Blues vs II"

From Shopping With Violence

Chra is the alter ego of Viennese author, DJ, music addict and radio/TV presenter Christina Nemec. After a period experimenting with low frequencies and noise effects, Chra started to work on more club-friendly Minimal beats. Now she plays with sinewaves processed through a tape recorder and analogue and digital tools, sonically alluding to landscapes, territories, silence, extraordinary and extreme situations, challenges and post-industrial sites. As well as being a member of groups like SV DAMENKRAFT, Thermo-Fill and The App, she has made performance works with Lydia Lunch and runs her own label Comfortzone.
