On Sunday 11 January 2026 Cloud presents for the first time with BEAM SPLITTER !!!
BEAM SPLITTER - Audrey Chen (US) and Henrik Munkeby Nørstebø (NO) -
is a duo for amplified voice, trombone and analog electronics based in Berlin, Germany.
BEAM SPLITTER have been touring globally since 2015, playing over two hundred concerts in a wide variety of spaces and contexts, bringing their own brand of highly amplified dialog, which is as intimate as it is equal amounts raw and entirely exposed. They join together their two individual voices into a distinct language that delves beyond the borders of the corporeal elements of un-processed voice and trombone, while utilizing analog electronics to offset their hyper extended physical play.
Their latest duo album "SPLIT JAW" was released on Nat Baldwin's Tripticks Tapes in 2023. This bite size format packs an entire universe of their crafted sputter, breath and glitch inside its forty-five minute magnetic tape loop. The album is one third introspective Berlin studio production and the rest, live from a splintering concert given at Wels Unlimited Festival in Austria, their last concert of 2022 where audience and the duo alike giving it their all center of room, split open like hollow bones head to clavicle, muscles twitching and air spewing, breaking ground and mending it with alien hums.
BEAM SPLITTER have taken part in larger commissioned works at the Teatro Colón, Buenos Aires and largely conceptualized a theatrical adaptation of MEDEA in front of the Olympic Stadium in Kiev, Ukraine (for butoh dancers and musicians) produced by the Ukho Agency.
Festival/venue performances include Sonoscopia (Porto), National Museum of Natural History (Kyiv), Issue Project Room (New York City), Festival Music Unlimited (Wels), Avant Art Festival (Warsaw+Wroclaw), Mayhem (Copenhagen), Trigger (Shanghai), Nameless Sound (Houston), Zebulon (Los Angeles), Gogolfest (Kyiv), Kongsberg jazz festival, Simultan festival (Timișoara), Morph*ne Raum (Berlin), The Lab (San Francisco), CCRMA Stanford university, Asphalt Festival (Düsseldorf), Fylkingen (Stockholm), Tiehua Music Village (Taitung), Teatro Colón (Buenos Aires), Audio Foundation (Auckland), Météo Mulhouse Music Festival
Since 2020, Audrey and Henrik have been organizing DEDICATED PLAY, an ongoing concert series and collaborative artistic project. While spinning a thread through the larger story of migration across continents/oceans and establishing the concept of home in shared relationships, they are seeking to bring together the commonalities of these experiences and express this communication in sonic language and music. In the past two seasons, they have worked and recorded with: Mo’ong Pribadi, Hyunhye Seo, Elaine Mitchener, Mariam Rezaei, Pat Thomas & Orphy Robinson (Black top), Carla Boregas, Mauricio Takara, Mieko Suzuki, Pak Yan Lau, Eivind Lønning & Espen Reinersten (Streifenjunko),
Hugo Esquinca and Yara Mekawei
