KOTRA - DISSILIENT
NS27
CD

a new album by Dmytro Fedorenko aka KOTRA has a new turn in his sound
investigations. The new album actually based on his precise digital noise found-
sound we heard in STIR MESH album and Fourfold Symmetry (together with Kim
Cascone, Andreas Berthling and Andrey Kiritchenko) project released by Nexsound
in 2002. DISSILIENT is more improvised, more structural complex, more powerfull and
more fascinating. DISSILIENT means starting asunder; bursting and opening with an elastic
force; dehiscing explosively; as, a dissilient pericarp. Dmytro was born in 1977. Studied mathematics
at National University of Ukraine and classic guitar at music school in Kyiv. Started making music in
1994 as bass player in jazz-noise band. In 1996 Dmytro found noise duo Zet and made a series of performances
with independent visual artists and videomakers in Kyiv. During 1997-1998 Dmytro participated in several video-art, net-
art and interactive workshops in Soros Center for Contemporary art in Kyiv. In 1998 after Dmytro left Zet he started his
solo project Kotra. Since that time Dmytro released 6 full length albums, has worked with Andrey Kiritchenko, Kim Cascone
and Andreas Berthling, Kotra's tracks were released on different compilations in Europe, USA and Ukraine. Dmytro also made
music for miscellaneous interactive cd-r, web and video projects together with Akuvido group. Those projects took part on such
