Tetuzi Akiyama ,Gitarre & Elektronik ( Japan)
Tetuzi Akiyama is a highly unique and experimental guitarist heavily applying free improvisation and noise. Besides guitar, he also plays electronics, viola, and self-made instruments. Akiyama released his first solo album Relator [slub music] in 2001. Mixing feelings of country and blues with free improvisation, Akiyama began to perform solo with greater frequency playing both acoustic and electric guitars, turntables without records and other effects. Using a prepared resonator guitar with a Samurai sword, Akiyama recorded his second solo album Resophonie (a bruit secret, 2002) which can be described as sonic sculpture with guitar.
Akiyama is a frequent guest at international music festivals and in recent years has performed at What is Music? (Australia, 2002), Alt Music (New Zealand, 2002 & 2004), Amplify (Tokyo, 2002 & New York, 2003), Musique Action (France, 2003 & 2005), Musiques Innovatrices (France, 2003), Uchiage (Berlin & Vienna, 2004) and Instal (Glasgow, 2005).

Hervé Boghossian ,guitarist and electronic musician ( Paris)
Guitariste et musicien électronique, fondateur du label List, Hervé Boghossian combine sons acoustiques et électroniques afin de créer un espace où les sons se développent pleinement et révèlent leur nature fragile, libérés de toute hiérarchie. Son set live se compose d'une partie à la guitare retraitée en direct sur ordinateur et d'une partie sur laptop, toujours en travaillant sur une piste de guitare.
Born in Marseille (France) in 1973 and moved to Paris (France) in 1997. Founder of the avant-rock trio and then duo ION+ with jurgen heckel* in february 1999.
