Hassan K. [Lille]

electro - rock - bolywoodcore Hassan K is the solo project of Franco-Iranian artist Keyvane Alinaghi. A sound artist and DIY tinkerer, hacker using free software. On stage, he performs a unique and extreme live experience, bordering on trance.

He crafts and repurposes traditional instruments (a microtonal guitar enhanced with sensors, a robotic santoor, an electric zurna) to get as close as possible to the audience and create compositions at the intersection of mystical Persian rituals and contemporary music. Bollywoodcore, oriental surf music, hindustrial techno… a blend of swing, cyber-metal, electronica, harsh noise, and rock in opposition, amplified by the sounds of Iranian spiritual knighthood.
