HAI by BITOI

BITOI (Bass Is The Original Instrument) is a band consisting of an electric bass and a small choir. Following a select series of live performances including Intonal Festival in Sweden, BITOI are now releasing a much-anticipated first single, HAI, on 09.09.

BITOI are exploring the limits and possibilities of the voice and the electric bass. Their lyrics are based on the phonetic pronunciation of bird sounds. The composer, Cassius Lambert, had a book about birds on his bookshelf titled “Europas fåglar i färg” (Europe’s birds in colour) which includes phonetic interpretations of the sounds these birds make. These bird sounds formed the foundation of the BITOI world. Cassius is also working with an extended electric bass neck to allow quarter tones, a musical interval of half a semitone.

BITOI is:
Cassius Lambert - Bass
Alexandra Shabo - Voice
Anja Tietze Lahrmann - Voice
Lise Kroner - Voice

BITOI (Bass Is The Original Instrument) is a band leaning on tradition while exploring the outskirts of our capabilities as musicians and composers.

BITOI is Cassius Lambert on bass, electronics, and composition, and a choir consisting of Alexandra Shabo (SE), Lise Kroner (DK), and Anja Tietze Lahrmann (DK).
