bAgg*fish (Netherlands/Argentina/Austria)

bAgg*fisH is a duo playing free improvised music, flowing between electro-noise, contemporary music, postmodern jazz, free punk and soundscapes. Michael Temai described this adventurous duo as: “Atmospheric, unpredictable, and sonically dense, the duo bAgg*fisH journeys into the cosmos of improvisation. Austrian musician-composerMichael Fischer and dutch-argentinean drummer Marcos Baggiani create their own sound world by entering into a virtuosic musical dialogue in which anything can happen… and it does.”

Michael Fischer (A): tenor saxophone, feedback_saxophone, violin
Marcos Baggiani (NL-AR): drums, small instruments

From these –and more elements they created, and are creating a unique, exploring sound. Dutch national newspaper de Volkskrant reviewed their last album with 5 out of 5 stars.
