*HACKEDEPICCIOTTO*
Genre defying trailblazing duo HACKEDEPICCIOTTO consists of Alexander Hacke (Einstürzende Neubauten) and artist, musician and filmmaker Danielle de Picciotto (co-founder of Love Parade). Individually, hackedepicciotto have been trailblazers from the beginning. Alexander Hacke started experimenting with cassette loops at 14 in the early 80s, then joined Einstürzende Neubauten to create music that would influence generations of musicians. Danielle de Picciotto, fascinated by early electronic dance music, founded the Berlin Love Parade in 1989, was the singer of one of the first cross-over bands in Berlin, The Space Cowboys and then joined forces with Gudrun Gut to create a feminine version of electronic music far ahead of its time. In 2001 Hacke and de Picciotto began collaborating, creating elaborate audio/visual multimedia performances in Berlin, before deciding to become nomads. The duo gave up their home and travelled the world, boldly defying convention and becoming a modern, musical version of Bonnie and Clyde, racing from concert to concert, and releasing albums at breakneck speed, until they were forced to lockdown in a studio during the pandemic in 2020.

They are now back with a new album The Best of hackedepicciotto (Live in Napoli), that collates over 20 years of collaboration, experimentation and genre defying work over two live performances recorded at Auditorium Novecento, one of the oldest recording studios in Europe. The album will be released on 1 November 2024, via Mute. This new collection of what the duo have dubbedSymphonic Drone is a mixture of industrial beats, electronic sounds with classical harmonies and melodies, with an added pinch of throat singing, Hurdy-gurdy and spoken word. Daniel Miller of Mute goes on to say that “their music is a genre of its own, something new and very intriguing.”
