RETO MÄDER

Reto Mäder works as RM74 at the periphery of electro-acoustic music and noise with a weakness for atonal boxhauling and melancholy melodies. The pieces of Mäder’s zig-zagging studies of aleatoric electro-acoustics includes a broad spectrum of sound sources like piano, organ, guitar, amp, harp, analogue and digital electronics, computer and field recordings. This resulted in solo albums on labels like ‘Domizil’ (CH), ‘dOc’ (AUT/GER), ‘Hinterzimmer’ (CH), a collaboration with RLW aka Ralf Wehowsky and in being a part of the actionist music group OHNE, together with Dave Phillips (Schimpfluch Gruppe, ex-Fear Of God), Tom Smith (To Live And Shave In L.A.) and Daniel Löwenbrück (owner of ‘Tochnit Aleph’-label). Since 2006 Reto Mäder runs together with Roger Ziegler (Member of Herpes Ö DeLuxe) the music label ‘Hinterzimmer’. More info at www.rm74.ch or www.hinterzimmer-records.com .

Reto Mäder is featured on Crouton No. 33, the CD “Pirouetten” with Ralf Wehowsky.
