简介

Pitchtuner始于一张混音磁带。成员Miki Yoshimura在德国的一次短暂停留,碰巧看到了另一位成员Johannes Marx前乐队Planet 9的演出,演出后Miki问他要一张专辑,但是当时Planet 9只发行了黑胶,于是他们约定下次再见时把磁带带给Miki。很快他们再次见面了,并且组成了Pitchtuner开始在欧洲、日本和中国巡演,还发行了3张专辑,代价则是走废了几辆汽车和巴士。

Pitchtuner开创了独立DIY乐器和100%舞曲相结合的音乐风格。乐评家们十分喜欢他们,评价他们为“基于电子乐的流行摇滚乐,聪明与简单相结合,散发着发自内心的异国情调和独特的节奏。”

从一开始,Pithctuner就在寻找能够完美结合音序器,最大限度地挖掘电子乐自身特点,并将其和现场吉他演奏相结合的办法,他们希望,能够以此制造出意想不到的效果。为了实现他们将高科技DIY和人类工具相结合的想法(该想法最早由Kraftwerk提出),Marx开始制造他自己的乐器、调节器和音乐软件。随着一件乐器的成功,他们离自己的理想越来越近,他们的音乐也越来越有特点。

Pitchtuner的第三张专辑《Riding The Fire》由Moses Schneider (Beatsteaks, Tocotronic, Mediengruppe Telekommander etc.)担任了部分制作,表现了Pitchtuner日渐成熟的声音设计和结构。例如《Supersonic Ride》这种pounding disco风格的歌曲,他们就把自己以前更倾向于摇滚的旋律改编成了强劲的舞曲节奏,同时伴随着强烈的失真效果,令人印象深刻。从其他的单曲中,你还能听到J-pop、funk、prog-electro等各种风格,这令他们的整张专辑听起来更令人“目眩神迷”。

现在,他们正忙于第四张现场专辑的制作,这也是他们对于自己设计乐器的一次试验。最新单曲来自于他们的一次现场互动演出,活跃的DJ表演结合现场乐器演奏。而同众多当代艺术家的合作,包括Soulwax / 2 Many DJs / Das Pop / Goose / Peaches,势必会让他们的新专辑有所突破。

The History of Pitchtuner starts with a mix tape. When Miki Yoshimura on her stop by in Germany saw a show of Johannes Marx’s former band Planet 9 and asked him for a tape afterwards. Planet 9 had only released on vinyl, so they had to make an appointment to make things happen. And things did happen! Shortly after, they formed Pitchtuner and since then has toured through Europe, Japan & China, releasing three albums to date, and ruining several cars and tour busses.

Pitchtuner built its style around a great combination of indie DIY spirit + 100% dance floor compatibility. Music critics loved their sound describing them as “Rocking Pop on electronic basics: smart and naive at the same time, exotic by nature, freshly grooving”

Since the beginning, Pitchtuner is searching for the perfect way to get together with the sequencers, explore the infinite sound-scapes of the electronic universe and combine it with the liveliness of guitars, unexpected changes and intuitive twists. To forward their idea of high-tech DIY and machine human integration (an idea first pioneered by Kraftwerk), Marx started building his own instruments, controllers and music software. With one-of-a-kind instruments, they get closer and closer to this concept and an every increasingly unique sound.

Pitchtuner’s third album ‘Riding The Fire’ partly produced by Moses Schneider (Beatsteaks, Tocotronic, Mediengruppe Telekommander etc.) presents Pitchtuner’s increasingly sharp sound design and composition. With pounding disco tracks like Supersonic Ride, they refined their more rock oriented grooves in the past for strong dance beats colored with space filling distortion and super catchy hooks. Other tracks echoed everything from Japanese Pop, to funk grooves, to prog-electro, all pulled together in a package of dizzying new sounds.

Right now, Pitchtuner is working on their club oriented fourth album which further goes into experiments with self-designed instruments. The new tracks are translated from their live shows that play like an interactive, hyperactive DJ set with live instruments. With kudos from contemporaries like Soulwax / 2 Many DJs / Das Pop / Goose / Peaches their upcoming album promises to be a true break out for Pitchtuner.
