DORR presents EKHO - SchaufensterKonzert

An album and immersive concert based on Ovid’s Echo, with
songs influenced by the parallels between the ancient myth and
the modern world of digital communication

Minimalist analogue electronics, warm waves of noisy shimmering
drones and cold industrial clangs are meshed skittering with intricate dense layers of bold expressive experimental deep and intimate voice, framing the songs with a distinctive atmosphere that is simultaneously delicate and bombastic, ful of glittering darkness and luminescent emotion.
A variety of instruments and sounds are used , including synths, glockenspiels, drum machines and samplers, to strange toy instruments such as the Otamatone.
The guitar is mutated with wooden bows, avant garde slide techniques and even vibrators/ electric razors to give an effect both machine like and expressive.
