Rashad Becker created a new composition titled Krieg, commissioned by INA grm. The piece premiered at INA grm’s festival Présences électronique on 15 April 2022.
Rashad Becker is a composer and musician residing in Berlin. His compositions are multi-plying narratives populated by a collection of sonic entities, some pleasant, others timid or agitated, and others ready to give up their places. Often, there is a tragicomic touch, like a cartoon version of a requiem for a dream, or a fertility dance from another dimension. Rashad is primarily active as a solo artist, but can be found in a series of ongoing collaborations alongside Eli Keszler, Moritz von Oswald, and as a member of Moleglove. Other, more sporadic collaborations include Okkyung Lee, Andre Vida, Ashley Paul, and Valerio Tricoli.
