about

Minute hearing. Open-ear sound surgery. Patching. Detecting and connecting. Dispatching. Padding and leaving. Foraying and bursting out. Moulding to break the mould. Unsoiled and peculiar.
Klammer & Gruendler form their highly intelligent sound pieces out of exorcised ghosts, the souls of good-tempered, stretched forms of electro-acoustic and digital-improvised music, ironically subduing new music’s controlling gesture. Their audio is elaborate, precise, impulsive, puzzled, border-crossing and startling. Reinventing itself radically and intensely, thus leaving the potential bleakness of conceptual music behind.
More than ever, the duo’s actual digital live processing is designed for interaction, modulation and restructuring. The “Klammer-Gruendler Interface” transforms its individual parts in real-time, broils its modules, condenses the parameters and scatters the variables. We request concentrated concentration, aggressively and calmly. Marcus Maida

Klammer & Gruendler have been working on the implementation of their “New Improvised Electronic Music” for over 20 years, creating pieces like Razionalnik - first multilateral telematic midi concert -, Im Trockenraum – Austrias first earphones concert for 100 earphones -, RGB – synchronizing two ensembles (Berlin/Graz) via TV pictures, numerous sound installations, music for theatre and radiophonic pieces.
