Fermented over ten years of playing and several albums, THE SHREDZ bring their unique brew to a Berlin basement full of gear. All arrangements and appointments left behind, ORBIT gives way to their free-flying new brand of trancy interplay with driving patterns in dub space and krauty soundscapes. Gathering forces of some of Europe’s foremost instrumentalists, the music is both disciplined, playful and virtuosic in its own right, but always hypnotic.

The Shredz have been crafting their own brand of archetypical, synergetic soundscapes made of Dub, Jazz, Hip Hop and Krautrock. The musical process in this quartet, featuring some of Europe’s foremost instrumentalists, is entirely based on their personal style of collective improvisation that is centred around hypnotic grooves, time and space bending atmospheres and the trance of ensemble playing.
