← MIRA Digital Arts Festival 2026

Temporary centres ringing electric guitar against analogue and digital synthesis, moving from sparse resonance into buzzing arpeggios, dense low-end and abrupt rhythmic weight. Expect a continuous live build shaped by smoke and Andrea Familiari's lighting rather than a track-by-track recital.

More about Grand River

Grand River is Dutch-Italian composer Aimée Portioli, based in Berlin and working between electroacoustic composition, installation and experimental electronic music. Her catalogue connects Donato Dozzy and Neel's Spazio Disponibile with Editions Mego, Caterina Barbieri's light-years and her own single-instrument label, One Instrument.

A story

Growing up at the foot of a mountain beside a river partly inspired Aimée Portioli's Grand River name.
