Orryelle Defenestrate-Bascule
Orryelle Defenestrate-Bascule is a ChaOrder Magician and Baphometic avatar somewhat obsessed with physical reification and Malkuthian manifestation. While s/he does enjoy shamanic and astral journeys via various trance techniques (occasionally inc. extreme entheogens such as Ayahuasca or fly agarics), s/he is not content to just travel to other dimensions, rather enjoying bringing back aspects of them to the physical plane.
S/he is thus constantly reburbishing hir Temple, that is the physical form seen as a malleable tool: Physical mutations as magickal acts (chakra piercing and weaving, Tattoo Tarot Tantra, etc.), Body Art in extremis, Sex Magick and Environment Sculpting.
As a vessel for these processes and others, hir Metamorphic Ritual Theatre Company presents public rituals aiming to transform rather than merely entertain the audiences – who thus be-come the initiates, sometimes being led through environmental installations (such as Labyrinths woven through the woods) while interacting directly with other characters.
Such ritual theatre is infused with universal symbology gleaned from Orryelle’s studies of alchemy and comparative mythologies (especially Norse, Egyptian, Hindu, Mayan and Greek).
Oryelle’s appearance at Esozone is courtesy of R6XX.
Hecate
“There is no greater single force of personality in the scene than Hecate” – XLR8R
As Head Mistress of Zhark International, she has been responsible for relentlessly fostering and producing the most evil breaks and noise since 1996. Besides being named “most prolific female producer” in hard electronic music, she has broadened her scope of damage to genres including Death and Black Metal in recent years, most namely with her collaboration with Austrian Metal demons – Belphegor. The past year has seen her tour the world with the most sinister and intense performances to date. Shows all over Europe, Japan, South America, Mexico, and America have left audiences enthralled and begging for more of her sadistic audio debaucheries.
Cult of Zir
Ogo Eion
Since 2005, Ogo Eion has carried the standard for Portland’s booming noise scene. Most notably through the recurring Cacophony series and his early career at lamented underground art lab Martial Arts Gallery, Ogo has brought together three generations of experimentors whose incestuous and promiscuous collaborations are gaining notoriety overseas. His primary musical output lives under the names of Disjunct and Exquisite Corps, and he returns from a brief trip to Oakland with a mission and a new passion for Death Trance.
