Rui Ho

Rui Ho is releasing EP In Pursuit of the Sun 逐日 on London’s Objects Limited on August 16, with preview track ‘Wings of Light’ premiering on AQNB today. The Berlin-based producer and Berlin Community Radio incubator artist alumni released another EP on the Lara Rix-Martin-run label last year, as well as a couple on Shanghai’s Genome 6.66 Mbp previously.

The record—which also features remixes by HDMIRROR, Louis Me and Bela—is inspired by the Chinese folklore of a giant called Kua Fu, who chases the sun from East to West before draining two rivers and dying of dehydration. This focus on deadly highs comes through in the upbeat and melodic urgency of tracks like ‘Acceleration’, ‘The Heat’ and ‘Ardour’ that are influenced by equally intense and ecstatic genres like trance, hardcore and jungle. Opener ‘Wings of Light’ is one of the most hopeful of the three, with its lyrical flutes and tuneful presets that run on a feverish yet hopeful pace.**

Rui Ho’s In Pursuit of the Sun 逐日 EP is out on London’s Objects Limited on August 16, 2019.

The third edition of The Wrong biennale opens online November 1 and is running to January 31, 2018.

The largest ‘decentralised’ digital art biennale, founded by David Quiles Guilló, brings together over 1,600 artists who are participating in both the virtual curated ‘pavillions’ as well as spreading out into offline locations called ’embassies’ which feature live performance, workshops, exhibitions and talks around the world. Some of these include large scale group exhibitions   c a r e x Clusterduck collaborative event at Berlin’s Panke.gallery with performances by Rui Ho among others, free_art_-_4RH1V35 at Zagreb’s Galerija Siva, SPAM POWER at Abu Dhabi’s AAD, Historia de Un Malentendido at Buenos Aires’ Espacio Pla, and GFX Free Error at Istanbul’s Space Debris Art to name a few. 

The project is open to participation and embraces an “instant radical inclusion trademark technique” with an open source team of over 80 curators. ‘Instant Radical Inclusion’ means “if you believe your art and/or your curating talent must be part of The Wrong, then for us it’s a must” and it accepts submissions up until the last day of the event.
