Ontervjabbit performing on the 2012 edition of Noise Festival in Ljubljana.
Ontervjabbit is a joint effort of Neven M. Agalma (also the name behind Dodecahedragraph and a member of Cadlag and Sevenborn And Rasturen) and Domen Učakar (head of a solo project Lifecutter and a member of Icarus Down and Neon Spektra). The pair, both well versed in handling their own projects as well, joined forces some time at the beginning of 2012, after Neven had made a remix of Neon Spektra's track "Volkovi na plano" which ignited an interest in a collaboration even more. An opportunity to play at Noise Festival gave them even more initiative to start working on their own material.
They describe themselves as two subjects dismantling, symbolizing, experimenting, clashing and moulding the material into the "O-V-J schemata organism". Their notable live appearances include supporting Oneohtrix Point Never on his Ljubljana gig in Klub K4, participation in the 2013 edition of Club Marathon and numerous local and international noise shows and festivals. They have established a strong connection with some of the Italian noise artist and their recordings have been very favourably reviewed in local and international media, especially Kevin Carnaille (Have Faith In Sound) and Rabbit (Indie Rock Mag & Des cendres à la cave) from France.
Neven is also one of the initiators of the first editions (and hopefully the following ones) of Zasavje Noisefest International which took place in June 2014 for the first time. It featured many international noise artists and was set in an abandoned mine facilities in the town of Trbovlje.
Ontervjabbit also sporadically appear in the guise of Ontervjabbit vs. Pharmafabrik (they are joined by Simon Šerc of Pharmafabrik Recordings in this project).
