City Slang

Grandbrothers is a piano/experimental duo from Düsseldorf, Germany. They have created a unique sound by using a self-built system of electromagnetic hammers to trigger a grand piano, essentially turning it into a drum machine. Unlike many other artists, Grandbrothers do not rely on synthetic sound sources; instead, all of their music originates from the grand piano itself.

Their innovative approach to music has garnered them comparisons to other talented artists in the industry such as Erland Cooper, Martin Kohlstedt, and Niklas Paschburg. With their mesmerizing compositions and captivating performances, Grandbrothers have carved out their own distinct place in the music scene.

If you are a fan of experimental music that pushes boundaries and challenges traditional notions of what can be done with an instrument like the piano, then Grandbrothers' music is sure to captivate your senses. Experience the extraordinary talent and creativity of this *duo* through their awe-inspiring compositions that showcase the full potential of the grand piano.

City Slang is an independent German label founded by Christof Ellinghaus. Renowned for its eclectic roster, the label encompasses everything from rock to post-rock and electronic music.

With a diverse range of artists, City Slang has become known for its unique and innovative approach to music. From established acts to emerging talent, the label consistently delivers high-quality releases that push boundaries and defy genre conventions.

As a leading force in the industry, City Slang has been instrumental in shaping the sound of contemporary music. With their distinctive style and commitment to artistic integrity, they have garnered a loyal following of music enthusiasts worldwide.

On their extraordinary new album Late Reflections, the German-Swiss duo place their art in communion with an institution so old it predates their music by seven centuries: Cologne Cathedral. The iconic monument of Gothic architecture, which is both a UNESCO World Heritage Site and Germany’s most visited landmark, served as an unorthodox recording studio for Grandbrothers’ fourth album, marking the only time the Cathedral has ever permitted a recording of this kind. The resulting album pulses with a rare sense of history and architecture, allowing the spatial properties of this magnificent building to shape and deepen the timbre of the duo’s swelling compositions. Grandbrothers have made a career out of spurning tradition. Formed in Düsseldorf, Germany, more than a decade ago, the piano duo creates richly textured music that straddles the boundaries between ambient, minimalism, and electronica.
