Have you ever wondered what techno would sound like when performed live by a German marching brass band, made up of eleven drummers and horn players all dressed in vintage military get up? Ponder no more.
Hamburg based techno troupe Meute are a dance act without the need for synths or decks. Delivering thunderous beats via a collection of percussive and brass instruments, the group stand out from the rest, producing an atmosphere and sound that can be rivalled by few.

Cleverly applying each instrument to replicate sounds synonymous with German techno, the marching band pay homage to some of the country's greatest dance exports, such as Berlin's electronic duo Âme, but with a more energetic and visual aesthetic. Crowds are known to gather and instinctively move to the hypnotic sounds the collective create.
Following on from an incredibly busy summer schedule, which saw the group of techno enthusiasts performing across the United States and Europe, Meute will arrive in the UK in April 2020 for a run of shows.
