As a composer, musician, and sound artist, Mats Erlandsson is part of the vibrant and reemerging field of drone music in Stockholm, Sweden, and is associated with practices characterized by the extensive use of sustained sound.

Erlandsson studied composition in Stockholm, where he obtained a Master’s degree in Electronic Music Composition. In addition to his own artistic practice, Erlandsson is a studio assistant at the world-famous Elektronmusikstudion (EMS) in Stockholm.

Erlandsson presents his work both as a solo artist and in collaborations, notably with Yair Elazar Glotman. In 2018, artist and choreographer Erik Berg commissioned Erlandsson to score his latest work, Unfortunate Desires, which premiered in the spring of 2019.

Recent releases include Minnesmärke on Hallow Ground (2020), the collaboration Emmanate with Yair Elazar Glotman on 130701 (2020), Hypodermic Letters on Portals Editions (2018), 4-track guitar music on XKatedral (2018), Selective Miracles and Valentina Tereshkova on Posh Isolation (2016), and again in collaboration with Glotman, Negative Chambers on Miasmah (2017). Erlandsson has presented his work extensively, most recently at Présences Électronique organized by GRM in Paris, CTM 2019 and The Long Now in Berlin, Norbergfestival in Norberg, Sonica Festival in Ljubljana, and at various music and arts venues around the world.

The Colectivo Casa Amarela (CCA) and Rua das Gaivotas 6 began a partnership in 2021 that proposes a curatorial occupation of music. The formula is simple: every month, the CCA showcases a sound artist and their latest work.

The focus is on presenting the best of what is produced and heard in the electronic music and sound art scene, opening up space for the dissemination of Portuguese and international experimental music.

The concerts at JEJUM have already promoted premieres, unusual collaborations, unexpected twists, and double performances.

On the main stage at Rua das Gaivotas 6, appetites are whetted and listeners are left hungry.

For the hour of hunger. Preferably on an empty stomach.
