Kodek

Performed at the opening of festival on September 6, 2012


KODEK or Raivo Vainovskis is a nugget of gold in Latvia’s underground electronic music. Creating sounds that do not fit in any of the known genres, KODEK brings in music his own urgencies, surprising with his attitude towards accepted norms – during his performances he usually provokes listeners to re-examine their ideas of what is “normal”. Equipped with the typical punk attitude and extravagant musical instruments (including the one-time popular pocket game consoles Game Boy), Kodek destroys the harmony of melody and rhythm.
