Mystery Art Orchestra is a band that blends musical realms both in their stylistic and in their temporal objectives. Clearly nurtured by the electronic dynamics of post-punk and cold wave the band's approach never freezes - by contrast it's lush, ever evolving and full of colours.
Tino Bogedaly (voice & guitar), André Wlodarski (keys & electronic bass) and Bastian Müller (drums & percussion) form acoustic synergies equally challenging in their technically demanding practice yet comforting with strangely familiar patterns alike.
Ethereal guitar chords frequently hint at strains of romanticism only to be broken up by the steady rhythm of lucid drums, a bold synthesizer and sonorous singing. There is momentum, there is ecstasy, there is depth.
Founded in Brandenburg the band was never drawn to its rural origins albeit inspired by the vast landscapes of the region. Whereas the scene of Berlin also remains a consistent influence on their work, it's always been the interplay of backgrounds that pathed their way.
