  Adelino Valente

  Abul Mogard is the alter ego of Italian musician Guido Zen, known for his evocative albums and immersive live performances. Based in Rome, he has appeared at prestigious festivals and venues, including Berlin Atonal, Poesia en Voz Alta (Mexico City), the Centre Pompidou (Paris), Centro de Cultura Condeduque (Madrid), Auditorium San Fedele (Milan), Le Guess Who? (Utrecht), and the Southbank Centre (London). Commissioned by the Organ Reframed festival, Mogard composed a piece for pipe organ, electronics, and trombones, performed at Union Chapel (London) with the London Contemporary Orchestra. His work also extends to film, including soundtracks for Duncan Whitley’s ‘Kimberlin’ and ‘Phoenix City (2021)‘, the latter commissioned by the Coventry Biennial. The BBC has featured his music multiple times, with Mary Anne Hobbs praising his remixes for Carl Craig and Fovea Hex (feat. Brian Eno), listing them among her favourite tracks. Mogard’s music has found its place across creative fields, from film and television to fashion, contemporary art and advertisements. Recent releases include ‘Impossibly Distant, Impossibly Close’ with Rafael Anton Irisarri and ‘In uno spazio immenso’ with Grand River, alongside collaborations with KMRU, Colin Potter, CoH, and Cindytalk. His new album ‘Quiet Pieces’ will be released on his imprint, Soft Echoes.
