[關於藝術家]
POGO
電子音樂家 / VJ
Pogo(原名Nick Bertke)是來自澳洲伯斯的國際知名電子音樂家及VJ。他的作品風格獨特,多從電影或電影特定的場景中錄取聲音,然後將聲音排序製成新的音樂,深受歡迎。
在短短幾個月內,Pogo在youtube的11段影片已有超過一千四百萬人觀看。他在youtube的頻道亦有超過五萬人訂閱,成為網上最多人訂閱的獨立音樂人之一。迪士尼、彼思動畫製作室、歐普拉秀哈波工作室、本田、富士汽車、Showtime、巴塞爾邁阿密藝術博覽會及紐約古根漢美術館等都曾經探尋Pogo合作製作作品。Pogo雖然在youtube深受讚譽,但他的作品在Last.fm可供下載,並有超過一千六百萬人聽賞。
Pogo是首位與主流製作室合作製作混合音樂的VJ。他在彼思的第一個計劃Upular的觀賞速度是彼思本身的頻道的兩倍,Upular在一個月內獲得一百五十萬人觀賞,並得到華爾街日報的讚譽。

iii是一個充滿叛逆個性,以採樣為本,顛覆音樂體系為樂,且沒有固定成員的筆記本樂團。他們不但四出盜聲,演出時,更不時相互採聲或監守自盜。
iii熱愛廣東流行曲及所有低俗的曲子及被遺忘的流行偶像。但視乎情况而定,他們也不一定只演廣東流行曲。

[About the artists]

POGO
Electronic musician / VJ
Pogo (born Nick Bertke) is an internationally renowned electronic musician and VJ from Perth, Australia. He has gained popularity for his unique work recording small sounds from a film or a specific scene, and sequencing the sounds together to form a new piece of music.
In just a few months, Pogo has developed youtube footprint of over 14 millions views with only 11 videos. He has over 50,000 subscribers, making him one of the most subscribed to independent musicians ever online. He has been sought after and done work with Walt Disney, Pixar, Oprahʼs Harpo Studios, Honda, Subaru, Showtime, Art Basel in Miami, The Guggenheim in NYC and many others.
Although gaining recognition through Youtube, many of Pogo’s tracks are available for download at Last.fm where examples from his combined discography have been heard over 1,600,000 times.
Pogo is the first VJ ever to strike a long term movie remixing deal with a major movie studio. His first project from Pixar entitled Upular, outpaced Pixarʼs own channel views 2:1, garnering 1.5 millions views in less than a month and was praised by the Wall Street Journal.

iii is a sample-based laptop group who works on the idea of genres bending. With no fixed members and always in flux, members of iii not only sample from their source materials, but also sample one another and re-sample themselves on stage.
iii loves canto-pop and all kinds of outdated cheesy tune and popular icon. But depending on the occasion, one might also spot them playing something else.

HKNME 水果和蔬菜樂團!
準備以水果和蔬菜的聲音帶給大家從未有過的的驚喜。擴大、扭曲、剪切、擠壓和敲擊!

The HKNME Fruit and Vegetable Orchestra was founded in 2010. Prepare to be surprised by the sounds of fruit and vegetables in a way you've never experienced before. Amplified, distorted, cut, squeezed, processed and hit!

Asia’s first fruit and vegetable orchestra plays music exclusively on organic instruments: carrots, cucumbers, watermelons, apples, coconuts, bok choy and ... durian even? Searching for an affinity of the organic and digital worlds, ever wondered what Steve Reich would sound like on watermelons, or what 'improvised carrot' is?

This performance at K11 will be fun for young and old and is a platform for experimentation and fun. FREE FOR ALL.
