They epitomize three generations of experimental musicians:  Schickert personifies the Krautrock of the 1970s, Arbeit 1980s  post-punk and Dresselhaus the neo-electronica of the late 1990s\/2000s  period.   <!--more-->  <\/p>\n<div id=\"yui_3_16_0_1_1455860347769_20224\">Their  artist approaches may differ on account of their diverse musical  backgrounds, yet what they do have in common is a fundamental interest  in developing the guitar as a sound object, seeking out unusual  structures and harmonies. They now present the results of their  explorations and ideas on a joint album. The end product is very much  more than just the sum of its parts, due not only to the participants&#8217;  different musical philosophies, but also through the use of instruments  not usually associated with this type of music (e.g. balafon, conch,  mbira, electronic drums, modular system). Their joint album concocts a  kind of musical magic from a myriad of influences (Krautrock,  psychedelic, free jazz, punk, industrial, techno, minimal-electronic and  so forth) yet simultaneously transcends them to create a new form of  music.<\/p>\n<div id=\"yui_3_16_0_1_1455860347769_20231\">G\u00fcnter Schickert (*1949)  has been an active member of the Berlin music scene since 1964. He  released two albums in 1974 and 1979 on two legendary Krautrock labels,  Brain and Sky Records. Since then he has played in various projects,  such as the band Ziguri, and pursued a solo career.<\/div>\n<div id=\"yui_3_16_0_1_1455860347769_20232\">Jochen Arbeit  (*1961) moved to Berlin in 1980 and joined the \u201cGeniale Dilletanten\u201d  art group who mixed punk rock and Dada. In 1983 he began touring the  world with his instrumental rock band Die Haut. He has been a member of  Einst\u00fcrzende Neubauten since 1997 and Automat since 2012.<\/div>\n<div id=\"yui_3_16_0_1_1455860347769_20241\">Dirk Dresselhaus  (*1970) has been involved in various musical fields since the late  1980s. Between 1989 and 1997 he played and sang in indie\/noise rock and  pop bands like Locust Fudge and Hip Young Things, before focussing more  on electronic music from 1997 onwards, starting up his project Schneider  TM. In 1999 Dresselhaus formed the duo Angel together with Ilpo  V\u00e4is\u00e4nen.<\/p>\n<p>Source: Bureau B<\/div>\n<\/p><\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>G\u00fcnter Schickert, Jochen Arbeit and Dirk Dresselhaus are three renowned Berlin guitarists.
