Oren Ambarchi

Australian guitarist Oren Ambarchi's signature Hubris project, presented at Monheim Triennale II in 2025, explicitly eschewed vocals, and revolved around how gradual changes in dynamics and tempos can be sensed among five guitarists: Jules Reidy, Phillip Sollmann, Fredrik Rasten, Marcus Pal and Ambarchi with contributions from Konrad Sprenger's computer programming, Johan Berthling's electric bass pulse, dual drummers Will Guthrie and Andreas Werliin in addition to Mats Gustafsson (flute and bariton saxo) and Sam Dunscombe on bass clarinet.
