Haou Nebout is an electroacoustic trio based in Bologna (IT), featuring Biagio Cavallo (laptop), Andrea Fabris (drums, live electronics), and Riccardo Tesorini (synthesizers, samplers).
The group explores the intersections of non-idiomatic improvisation and new territories of sound research, developing a sonic landscape where the archaic meets the post-human, and apocalyptic imagery evokes a return to the origins. 

’Haou Nebout’, as described by the ancient Egyptians, was a mysterious archipelago of islands located in the heart of the ocean. This mythical, submerged place – much like Atlantis – was home to the “Sea People”, who were then forced to a perpetual wandering. 

Drawing on this ancient myth, the trio Haou Nebout imagines a future of rebirth where the remnants of post-capitalist civilization, submerged and swallowed by the mud, re-emerge as fertile ground for a new beginning. In this dystopian vision, among the wreckages and fragments of a decayed technological world, the group finds its identity. They imagine an anthroposphere rising from the ruins, where buried electronic instruments are rediscovered and transformed. Music becomes a ritual, a foundation for rebuilding community and culture, rekindling a deep connection with nature and fostering a sense of belonging in a shattered world. Here music transforms into a new language: an immediate, collective, and shared form of communication. 

The debut album Haou Nebout is a compact, violent and urgent work. The sound materials were selected from a single improvisation session recorded by Gustavo Petek on May 18, 2024, at the Château Rouge in Vienna.
