low tide digitals iii is the third and possibly final installment in a series of extremely fine-tuned pieces that mixes acoustic instruments and electronic elements in a subtle and unforced way. an album of sensitive, electronically-tinged free improvising, it's the work of two swiss based musicians, guitarist luigi archetti and cellist bo wiget. archetti was born in brescia, italy, in 1955, but has been a resident of zurich for more than 30 years. he's a multi-media artist, well-known for his work as both a painter and as a musician (he has received many awards for his paintings, drawings, objects and videos which have been displayed in exhibitions, galleries and museums around the globe). active in both free improvisation and experimental rock since the late 1970s, archetti joined the influential german psychedelic band guru guru in 1990 and he has since appeared on three new albums with them as well as on the live triple album "guru guru: 30 jahre live" issued in 1999. bo wiget was born in wattwil, switzerland in 1971 and studied classical cello in austria at the feldkirch academy. over the last decade he has worked with numerous improvisers including legendary swiss free saxophonist werner ldi, czech singer and violinist iva bittova and japanese guitarist taku sugimoto. wiget also works occasionally as an actor and was featured in the 1999 stage play "bambifikation", directed by niklaus helbling, which won the ibk prize in switzerland and first prize at the impulse festival in germany. bo wiget first played with luigi archetti in 1995 in the improv band affront perdu before the archetti / wiget duo was launched in 1998.
