Kevin Drumm
Avant-garde tabletop guitarist Kevin Drumm is an experimental musician
based in Chicago, United States. Emerging from the city's improvised
music scene, in the 1990s he became one of the world's pre-eminent
prepared guitar players. Since then his work has expanded to include
electroacoustic compositions and live electronic music made with
laptop computers and analog modular synthesizers. His early recordings
contain mostly sparse, quiet sounds; recent works have been crushingly
loud and dense electronic and acoustic audio with an emphasis on
monotony, long waves and distortion.
Has collaborated with Ralf Wehowsky, Axel Dorner, Prurient, Werner
Dafeldecker, Peter Rehberg, Aaron Dilloway and Daniel Menche.
Audio releases have been published on the following labels: Mego,
Hanson, Hospital, Sonoris, Moikai, Staalplaat.
