from Alternate African Reality – Electronic, electroacoustic and experimental music from Africa and the diaspora, released January 29, 2020
C-drík (Belgium-DR Congo)

Born in Zaire, Cedrik Fermont aka Kirdec is a Berlin-based Belgian-Congolese composer, musician, mastering engineer, author, radio host (at Colaboradio, Boxout.fm and Staalplaat) and label manager (at Syrphe) who operates in the field of noise, electronic and experimental music.
A former student of electro-acoustic composer Annette Vande Gorne (Royal Conservatory of Mons, Belgium), he is mostly self-taught.
In 2017 and 2018, he took part to the contemporary and live electroacoustic project Salims Salon directed by German composer Hannes Seidl and featuring Jacqueline George, Seth Ayyaz and AMET.
His compositions and installations vary from sound art and soundscapes made of found sounds and objects to more conventional “dance” music such as electronica or breakcore to radio projects. He has toured extensively in more than 60 countries in Europe, Asia, the Middle East, Africa and North America.
His main research focuses on electronic, electroacoustic, experimental and noise music from Asia and Africa. In 2017 he released together with Dimitri della Faille the book Not Your World Music: Noise In South East Asia, winner of the 2017 "Golden Nica" Prix Ars Electronica in the "Digital Musics & Sound Art" category.
He has been lecturing in various cultural centres, museums, schools and universities and gave some workshops and performances at the Internationale Ferienkurse für Neue Musik, Darmstädter Ferienkurse 2018.
He started to compose noise and industrial music in 1989, he is and has been a member of 17 bands, among them Axiome (with Olivier Moreau aka Imminent), Ambre (with O. Moreau and John N. Sellekaers), Tasjiil Moujahed (with Jawad Nawfal aka Munma), Marie Takahashi (Fermont/Takahashi duo), Elisabetta Lanfredini and Roberta Maddalena (Lanfredini/ Maddalena/C-drík trio) and collaborated with dozens of musicians and composers especially in Europe and Asia, as well as several theatre companies, etc.
