Biografía
Named after an archaic local electronic components store, the project’s title is also a phonetic echo of the Hebrew word ‘Kishoof’ (כישוף) meaning sorcery. The enigmatic duo take the practice to heart as they conjure up technology, magick, nostalgia and primordial/ futuristic elements into their sonic artillery; with bone-piercing vocals, lucid melodies and compositional approaches derived from early electronic music and musique concrète, they introduce the aesthetics of Power Romantics: a dichotomy between captivating sublime harmonies and uncontained chaotic elements. This extreme dynamic range reflects the complexity of the environment which brought it to life, particularly the volatile nexus of spirituality and violence which is the holy city, Jerusalem.
