Günter Müller
Günter Müller was born in Munich but has been based in Switzerland for most of his musical life. Müller was originally a drummer and percussionist. In the early 80s he mutated his drum set into a new instrument with customized mobile pick-ups and a microphone system of his own invention. That system allowed Müller to modify and modulate hand-generated sounds electronically. In the late 90s he added minidiscs to his set up and then in the early ‘00s he added an iPod. Nowadays, more often than not he plays with just an iPod and electronics only. As well as performing solo, Müller has collaborated with a large number of musicians, including Jim O'rourke, Christian Marclay, Butch Morris and Otomo Yoshihide. He founded the respected label For 4 Ears in 1990 and has also recorded for Erstwhile, Cut, Grob, List, Audiosphere, Amoebic, Rossbin, Creative Sources and others. He will perform in a duo with Taylor Deupree for the first time, as well as the band MKM.
