BHAMBHAMHARA are Jan Bicker and Axel Ermes. While Jan was working on pure electronic projects since years (a.o. As co-founder of Kiel based band ABSCESS), Axel was playing the bass in several post punk and gothic bands (GIRLS UNDER GLASS, CANCER BARRACK). He also wrote songs and played live keys for synthpop band WOLFSHEIM. But when he started working as soundengineer for bands like S.I.T.D., COMBICHRIST, REAPER, PROJECT PITCHFORK and many more he discovered another side again of his musical soul. Axel wanted to produce more danceable electro industrial stuff...
Axel and Jan met for the first time in summer 2012 during a yoga seminar, both looking for a new experience beside the stupefaction of the people by TV and other media. After finishing the seminar they decided to give it a try and work on simple music with simple messages. They founded their own style: “progressive body music” which also is the name of their debut album (scheduled for later 2014)
First release now is „Kreislauf“, which deals with the phenomenon of swarm raids of army ants. They are one of the best example of decentralized control. Every single ant is almost blind but with the help of pheromones they follow each other till the end which by accident can happen when two “streets” of ants cross and the insects start running in loops till they die. Not a big difference to the human race, hey?
