What happens when you mix a metal guitarist/classical pianist/singer-songwriter with a house producer? What indeed…. NZ musician, Murmur Tooth, and German producer/DJ, Lars Moston, met during the pandemic and started exploring how their polar opposite musical backgrounds could clash and combine. They are currently working on music that ranges from instrumental club tracks to vocal-based pop songs.
April will see their first official releases together, starting with the instrumental “You, Me, Us, Spines” on super-hyped German label, Heideton (22.04), and the remix of Claptone's new single "Beautiful" on Different Recordings (29.04). Also in the works is a full-length album funded by Initiative Musik, that combines Leah’s composition skills and vocal hooks with Lars’s production magic. The songs are dripping with layered harmonies and bursting with the weird and wonderful sounds of half broken instruments, salvaged childhood toys and repurposed household appliances.
