Brand new to DCWS is Vei Scale, an Athens based sonic cross-experimental project, a compositional approach to connection between electronic sound and contemporary poetry. Combining the sounds of Ioannis Gardiklis with the texts and vocals of Yoma Μοt, they share their need for experimentation and poetic sensibility rendered on a common ground.

Ioannis Gardiklis is a sound artist, composer and electronic music producer. His main interest is on the range of visual and performing arts, composing music as a mean of communication with different art forms and exploring the relation between technology and music. His compositions are based on natural, analog and digital sounds and his solely musical projects are under the name 'Electrohead'. Yoma Mot is an interdisciplinary artist and a product designer; contemporary art and labor, artistic research and critical design are the fields she mainly focuses on. Text is another medium she uses to express the dialectic form of contemporary art, for the past 3 years, she continues to write and publish her works.

In 2019, Ioannis and Yoma exhibited "Non Space Timeline", a time-based installation comprised of an audio and interactive performance. Throughout the year the team exchanged lyrics and tracks followed by numerous studio hours and acts. Later changing their project name to 'Vei Scale' in 2020. They describe themselves as an audio project enterprise than a band as each venture differs from another.

What they do is rather improvisational, collecting recorded and written ideas and then mix them together, using either music or text to depart from they are synchronising in the meantime with a specific idea, an archived text or a feeling that spreads out. This immediate connection is what they enjoy the most. Each song comes out with its own narrative story. Vei Scale's debut album is all about this; each single track is transposing a diary piece on its own.

Ioannis and Yoma have unveiled their new single entitled “Let’s”, which they produced. Accompanying the release is the music video, directed by Themistocles Lambridis. “Let’s” is taken from their fore-mentioned album, which is coming out next month on 12" vinyl by their label, Thinkbabymusic Collective.
