Unfall! Electro-Pop-Duo
The electronic musician duo consisting of Max Schweder and Martin Widyanata move between reduced 4/4 melodies and painful dissonances to produce deep-porn-pop. Live electronic saxophone as well as hard modulated vocoders play as much a role as classical sampling and looping.
Music is the strongest form of magic. Marilyn Manson
“Unfall!” draws on the rich heritage of two of music’s most visionary & experimental genres. The artists draw inspiration from these two musical worlds & mix tradition with modernity, improvisation with experimentation to create a new sound.
