Guido Möbius
[DE]
Guido Möbius is one of those musicians you can positively recognize by their sound, no matter which musical stops he pulls out or what instruments or styles he applies. If Möbius sends one of his tracks on its journey you’ll never know where that journey might end. And it’s enormous fun to follow its musical mutations. The Berlin musician masters the art of subtly slipping us radical sounds and keeping a track in its flow even with the most unexpected twists and turns.
With the help of no more than his guitar, his voice, a trumpet and loads of effect pedals, he builds up highly energetic music in between humour and hypnosis. In his live sets Möbius creates delicate links between experimentation, handmade techno, funk, polyrhythmic patterns, acid, noise and gospel music. Methodically prepared passages and improvisation combine into a coherent set, and Möbius deals with this energy on the fly. Failures and restarts are constant companions and sources of inspiration. Möbius always invites chance to be his accomplice.
