Live techno trio Elektro Guzzi will be releasing their latest album Triangle, on the 18th of March via Palazzo. On the LP, listeners will find the dynamic ‘Spiral’ track as well as the previously released ‘Prototyp’ and ‘Okra’ singles. Recognized for their skills, Elektro Guzzi won an EBBA Award in 2012 for their LP Parquet. They have performed on the stages of Sonar Festival, Eurosonic, Mutek, Fabric, Berghain and are currently looking forward to their upcoming European tour. The trio has received support from Resident Advisor, Red Bull, The Quietus, Electronic Beats, Pop Matters, Clash Magazine, Fact Mag, Mixmag Brazil and Inverted Audio to name a few as well as airplay from Worldwide FM’s Gilles Peterson, BBC 3’s Chris Elcombe and FM4.
Performing live techno on instruments, without the use of computers or live loopers, the Vienna-based trio Bernhard Hammer (guitar), Jakob Schneidewind (bass), and Bernhard Breuer (drums) truly overcome the boundaries between analogue and digital.
Their unique, energetic live performance creates an unparalleled appeal – where you see how every sound is created, right there, on the spot merges the worlds of punk, hip hop and electronic music, to create their own truly unique blend of live techno. The trio are inspired by the likes of Jeff Mills, Basic Channel, James Holden and Underground Resistance. In turn, Elektro Guzzi’s sound calls to mind the likes of Surgeon, Octave One and Richie Hawtin.
Elektro Guzzi’s sound is like an electronic beast, created by mankind but taking on its own primal instincts as it quickly develops and matures. A terrifying precision creates a hypnotic embrace that lures the listener in. Protector of the cutting edge and predator of all things normal, Triangle is the next piece in the evolution of music.
Speaking of the album, Elektro Guzzi tell us: “With Triangle, we have managed to concentrate on the core competence of Elektro Guzzi. To generate the energy of techno live with bass guitar and drums. No overdubs, no cuts, everything is created in the moment.”
