ANEZ — 2012 to 2026
A complete archive of ANEZ work across music, performance, installation, and collaboration.
Berlin & touring
A musical experiment to create living pieces in real time, using only one human voice as the source of sound. The two artists engage in a musical and reactive engineering process, finding the thin line where sound becomes meaning.
Collegium Hungaricum Berlin — Long Night of Sciences, June 2024
A live performance in collaboration with Zsolt Török, who performed on the touchscreen sampler developed for the Robert Gragger Retu(r)ned installation — turning archival material into live sound in real time.
Collegium Hungaricum Berlin — July–September 2024
A sound and archival installation created by ANEZ and Zsolt Török (creative coder). The work brought the voice of Collegium Hungaricum's founding director, Róbert Gragger, back to life using restored wax cylinder recordings from 1924 — feeding them into a self-developed sampler accessible via a custom touchscreen interface.
Zönoteka Gallery, Berlin — Vorspiel / Transmediale, 25 January 2024
A live performance created in collaboration with Zönoteka art gallery and Zsolt Török (creative coder), presented as part of Vorspiel — the city-wide programme running alongside Transmediale festival in Berlin.
Forspiel Festival — Berlin
ANEZ's first fully improvised concert, recorded live at Forspiel Festival in Berlin. Sound-driven giant TV lamps from the 1960s, controlled entirely by the music being made. A turning point toward the work they make now.
Collegium Hungaricum Berlin — February 2022
An improvised sound performance on BAYZ speakers — a 360° speaker system developed by Hungarian engineer Zoltán Bay. A spatial listening experience designed around the architecture of the room and the physics of sound.

Amp Cafe, Tokyo — March 2014
The final stop of ANEZ's Tokyo Tour. Amp Cafe — an art gallery and intimate performance space — hosted one of four concerts during the tour. During the performance, artist Mehico painted a large psychedelic work live on canvas behind the duo. Booked by Takeuchi san, video by Kouhei Nagamune.
October 2014
Alongside the album release, ANEZ built a 3-metre tall A-frame paper sculpture — inspired by the form of the Megyeri bridge in Hungary but entirely its own object. Aluminium rods spike outward from its front and sides, each acting as a touch-sensitive conductor connected to a sampler loaded with song material. Anesz performed by touching the rods, turning the sculpture into a playable instrument and collapsing the roles of artwork, stage set and musical interface into one.

Szkéné Theatre, Budapest — November 2013
An experimental dance performance in collaboration with PSIX Project. Anesz performed on stage alongside two professional dancers, wearing a self-developed sensor-wired dress that translated movement into sound. Music composed and performed live by ANEZ.
April 2013 — Chi-Recordings
ANEZ's debut album released on Chi-Recordings. The English-language version of MAVANAMA — the record that introduced their sound to an international audience.
October 2012 — with Eszter Márfi (piccolo flute) & Fanni Edőcs (cembalo)
A chamber music reimagining of ANEZ's experimental pop pieces, performed with classical musicians. Anesz designed handcrafted paper costumes worn by all performers, and created porcelain puppet-inspired makeup for the project — collapsing the boundary between music, costume design and performance art.
February 2012 — Self-released
ANEZ's debut self-released album. The beginning of everything.
