Pierre Borel and Hannes Lingens met in Berlin in 2006. Their work as a duo is a playful dialogue about resonance
and the extended sound possibilities of their instruments.
In 2010, they went on a Japan tour where they collaborated with Tetuzi Akiyama, Aya Tanaka, Madoka Kouno
and Peter Kutin. In 2011 they made an acoustic version of Pierre Schaeffer's pioneering Musique Concrète piece
«Études aux chemins de fer» for the Reheat festival in Austria. They toured in Russia in 2012 and their track
ANEMIC CINEMA was included in the compilation "Echtzeitmusik Berlin" (Mikroton).
Pierre Borel and Hannes Lingens are also part of the Jazz / Free Jazz group "Die Hochstapler"
with Louis Laurain and Antonio Borghini. With Derek Shirley they formed the trio OBLIQ which performed with many
guests musicians and dancers and released two albums on Umlaut and Another Timbre.
