mouse on the keys

indies - aktiv (2006 - )

Behind the strange name of mouse on the keys is a fittingly peculiar group. Playing minimalistic jazz, they combine two pianos or keyboards with drums in an unusual way. As a result, their music is influenced by classical and modern jazz, and also expresses a predominant electro and rock sound. Some would even consider it a progressive band going from jazz to post rock, a unique fusion between rhythmic rock and minimal melodies. The band also includes video as an integral part of their music during live performances, projecting abstract, symbolic, geometric as well as figurative footage during their show.
