Herpes Ö DeLuxe and RM 74 are looking for shows between the 18. and 31. october 2010, mainly in Germany and France but also in Belgium or The Netherlands.

Herpes Ö DeLuxe is a four piece group from Bern/Switzerland in the 15th year of their existence,
working in a musical field between atmospheric noise, electronica bruitiste, sombre soundscapes and harsh drones.

Both groups are part of the Hinterzimmer Records roster besides Rhys Chatham and Ghédalia Tazartès amongst others.

Herpes Ö DeLuxe - Short biographical note

Herpes Ö DeLuxe, formed 1995, is a four piece group from Bern/Switzerland working in a musical field between atmospheric noise, electronica bruitiste, harsh drones, electronic and acoustic soundscapes, playful collages and devastating rhythmic noise attacks. Their instruments are partly analogue electronic gear, partly self-built or deconstructed tools like tape loops or turntables that are (mis-)used as rhythm machines.

Besides concerts in the traditional sense, Herpes Ö DeLuxe have been involved in numerous other activities: they made the live music for the theater 'Habgier' and regularly produce the live soundtracks for the pyrotechnical interventions of the artist Pavel Schmidt (Solothurn, Munich). Those events usually take place in museums or art spaces.

Sporadically they are also teaming up with singer Beat-Man (frontman of well known Garage Rock/Punk-Band The Monsters). Under the name Reverend Beat-Man & The Church Of Herpes they are producing a more song-orientated brand of music, closer to the common pop-scheme but with a noisy edge.

Herpes Ö DeLuxe-members Roger Ziegler and Christoph Hess are, together with Reto Mäder, playing in Sum Of R, Hess is also known for his turntablism experiments as Strotter Inst.

RM74 - Short biographical note

RM74 is the solo project of Swiss musician Reto Mäder who lives in Bern. He meshes instruments like guitar, piano and kalimba with electronics in such a way as to make both s
ides of the fence talk to one another. It's a cryptic and wide open language between drifting electro-acoustic music, minimal instrumental figures, drones, experimental electronics and slow-growing melodies.

"Think psychedelia, think noise, think lo-fi New Zealand"
Frans De Waard, Vital Weekly

"When the noise spikes and then disappears, only the beautiful underlying sounds remain, like a storm coming to its inevitable end"
Creaig Dunton, Brainwashed

Apart of RM74, Reto Mäder plays in Ural Umbo (with Steven Hess of Haptic, On and Pan American) as well as in the chamber doom trio Sum Of R (with Roger Ziegler and Christoph Hess of Herpes Ö DeLuxe). He released albums on Utech, Crouton, dOc, Hinterzimmer and Domizil. Since 2006 he runs the label Hinterzimmer Records with Roger Ziegler.

  1. One way to prevent episodes of herpes is to eat foods that are as close as possible to nature. Avoid eating food products with dozens of ingredients, dyes and preservatives. Staying hydrated, avoiding large amounts of caffeine and getting enough sleep helps the body not run out. Exercising a few times a week helps reduce stress levels in the body. There are special diets for herpes tailored to help prevent outbreaks. Other ways to cure herpes are through herbal medicine, the body is natural and also needs nature for a quick healing. I was a herpes patient for 2 years and Dr. Akhigbe cured me with herbal medicine and made me understand the usefulness of this herbal medicine. I saw many of his testimonies on the Internet when he was looking for a cure for my herpes and I contacted him through his email drrealakhigbe@gmail.com and obtained the medication through express delivery services. Fortunately, I made everything perfect, because he gave me instructions on how to drink it alone for three weeks "the doctor akhigbe knows the whole root of herbal medicine to all diseases as the godfather of herbalism", heals diseases such as herpes, hiv / aids , diabetes, cancer, a and b diseases, etc. For more information and help, Whatapp. He +2348142454860 or email ... drrealakhigbe@gmail.com
