➡︎Electric Guzzi⬅︎
What happens when you put a metal and experimental guitarist in a band with a bassist from Red Bull Music Academy? In the case of the Austrians Elektro Guzzi, this constellation resulted in techno played as live as possible, with the contribution of looping machines.
Bassist Jakob Schneidewind, drummer Bernhard Breuer and guitarist Bernhard Hammer started experimenting with repetitive structures in 2004. Moreover, even live, they can present their sound in such a way that they can easily get a not-so-informed audience dancing within a few minutes. Their unique analog concept of dance music caught the attention of the Berlin label Macro, where after six years of existence they released their eponymous debut. This was followed by several other full-length albums as well as separate singles and EPs, hand in hand with successful performances at the festivals Roskilde, Melt! or Sonar. This year, the album Triangle was added to the band's discography. "On the new record we get to the very core of Elektro Guzzi. We create techno-live energy with bass guitar and drums. No overdubs, no cuts, everything is created in the moment," says the trio about their latest effort. And as is known, techno-live is the best live. All the energy from Elektro Guzzi's music is only amplified live.

➡︎1flfsoap⬅︎
Live drums with guitar and synths and a raw sound show the dark side of live electronics.
1flfsoap, that's an urbanized shohaj and a bored Brňák, who together create dance sets with an unpredictable ending. Two fighters (Michal Janík, Lukáš Palán), whose cycles were synchronized a long time ago, just using a midi cable. A duo that wants to banish the smell of electroswing from the cities!
