Zwerm

It’s Zwerm’s 10^th anniversary and for every project, they examine their musical profile afresh. The same goes for their new album, 'Badminton in Tehran', in which they take on the challenge of experimenting with a primal musical element as the groove. Together with producer Rudy Trouvé they draw inspiration from many different influences, such as Sudanese folk music, experimental krautrock, long riffs from punk band The Ex and the rhythms of industrial machines. The release concert will be one big live instrumental remix of the album.
To quote Kwadratuur’s reviewer: “Too down to earth for the rock world, too unconventional for the world of classical music, Zwerm has no choice but to seek out its own territory.”
