Reinhold Friedl and Dirk Dresselhaus come from really different backgrounds: Dirk Dresselhaus has released several experimental-electronic freak-pop recordings as Schneider TM since the late ’90s. He started making music in the late ’80s and developed his personal approach to sound and structure as an autodidact, starting with guitar effect devices and four-track home-recording
Reinhold Friedl studied mathematics and music, won scholarships and international commissions, and built up the ensemble Zeitkratzer, disrespecting all musical frontiers. So it’s not astonishing that both met for the first time when Zeitkratzer performed Lou Reed’s Metal Machine Music: Dirk Dresselhaus was enthusiastic about this unrestrained contemporary music group which devoted itself to the instrumentation of purely tuned guitar feedback
