EuroNoize is a live music event modelled on the Eurovision song contest, but featuring a cast of DiY, alternative and underground subpop bands. Taking place on May 23rd 2019 at the Scala in London, it features musicians from across Europe who will perform one new song in front of a live audience.
Kunsthall Oslo is part of the Euronoize network and we’ll be cheering for the Oslo representatives Golden Core.
Please join us for a live streaming broadcast hosted by the excellent bar No. 53 so you can cast your vote from afar for your favourite performance of the evening in case you can’t make it. EuroNoize is a celebration of the obscure, the niche and the uncategorizable, music that runs deeper than national borders. It represents the secret international fellowship of punx and weirdos stretching from Russia to Ireland.

DIY artist, Keyvane (his real name) mixes folklore and technologies,
occident and orient, surf music and bellydance, swing and heavy metal
in crazy live acts, not too far from trance. With a guitar, a keyboard and a
few sensors, he travels from the west kingdom to the Turan, spreading the
words of his illuminated ancestors.
Golden Core is a Norwegian-Icelandic metal duo based in Oslo, Norway. They play a mix between different genres, all though stoner metal and doom are their main influences. Golden Core has been compared to bands like Neuroses, Kyuss, Mastodon and Mayhem.

In 2015, tab_ularasa released Ragni Giganti, his first and “official” LP of but it would be ridiculous to call it a debut. tab_ularasa, aka Luca T., originally from Tuscany, produces sound pollution with this alias, recording cassettes and CD-R at a pace as if he must record everything that comes into his mind so as not to forget it.
E-P-P consider themselves a Travel Agency. They have been credited for making numerous travel arrangements throughout the years, and their main goal is simple – to create the perfect environment for tourists. E-P-P works as a duo consisting of Katie Woznicki and Vladimir Nikolic. They make short electronic jingles in the format of commercial adds with no products to sell, all with an analogue synth, a simple sampler and a rhythm machine.
Johnny the Horse (Czech Republic)
Johnny the Horse’s shape-shifting lo-fi sleaze, occasionally a one-man band and at times a four-member ensemble, is a test of good taste, pairing scuzzy proto-punk guitar with objectionable and irresponsible lyrics. Known as the bon vivant of the Prague art-club scene, Johnny (a.k.a. Jan Vytiska) has until recently been primarily known as a fine artist with peculiar sense of humour (drawing on distinctive themes from Wallachian folklore and combining them with metal and horror aesthetics).
