about

Eisentanz is a musical artist that experiments with different materials and objects to create different sounds and rhythms. Eisentanz live performance include sewage pipes, his metal body drums and other objects that are each connected to a microphone. He wouldn't call his performance style "music" per se. He experiments with different materials and objects to create different sounds and rhythms. Eisentanz utilizes sewage pipes, coffee mugs, what he calls "metal body drums" and other self-developed instruments that are each connected to a microphone during his performance.

The word Eisentanz translates to "iron dance" in English, which he finds especially fitting because of the unique objects he wears and plays live.

Now, he presents the EP "Meson". The 45-year-old explored the possibilities of sounding irons and similar previously, today he emphasizes his focus primarily on the rhythm and the music. He thereby refined the sounds, which he finds in his environment and integrates them into rhythms, enriched with harmonious splashes of color. The spherical resigns a little and gives more and more space to the atmospheric. The individual pieces live by minimal musical brush strokes, finely strung electronic, iron sounds line like rocks in a pearl necklace. The receptive intensity is generated by sophisticated arrangements and the well mixed sound.

Eisentanz Zürich, Switzerland

In such a way he develops those most diverse compositions of EBM/Industrial/Gothic over Electro/DownTempo, Scores, Intermezzo up to Ethno and TripHop. So he presents a very special Live-Performance with self developed instruments. ... more
