Antlers Mulm

With this project Hans Johm as the only member of Antlers Mulm dips into musical surrealism and strict disciplined electronica of constantly surprising ambiances leaning to several proposals. Most tracks have an atmospheric electronic sound with clear keyboard melodies, subtle samples and sparse speech vocals, often slightly distorted. Percussion does not play a dominant factor, though there is some ritual, almost martial percussion here and there. In general the music is not particularly dark, there are no deep basses or cliche rumbling machineries.

In general the music is not particularly dark, there are no deep basses or cliche rumbling machineries.The music of Antlers Mulm contains many nostalgic references to older electronic music, without becoming a pure retro act. The music does not sound very complicated at first.

Nevertheless there is a lot of tension in the music and often an otherworldly and melancholic feeling. Pioneers like Kraftwerk come to mind, as well as underground minimal electro from the early 80’s, but there are also clear connections to dark ambient / industrial circles. Despite experimentation, the melodic soundscapes are quite accessible, even meditative at times. http://www.sonderuebertragung.de http://www.myspace.com/antlersmulm User-contributed text is available under the Creative Commons By-SA License and may also be available under the GNU FDL..
