Jaxa

Matias Hancke

BIO

Jaxa is the pseudonym of an Argentine composer based in Berlin who finds the custom of writing biographies in the third person peculiar, especially considering that they are likely self-written by the composer.

My work spans diverse musical genres, encompassing traditional instrumental music and electronic compositions.

Born in Buenos Aires, I initially studied Music Composition before undertaking postgraduate studies in music in London. Adopting the name Jaxa for live coding, an activity I have started three years ago, my performances make use SuperCollider to explore synthetic textures, emphasising the role of noises and rhythmic components.
