About Me

Tupolew of Berlin. A rock band.
- - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - -
Formed in August 2006 in Berlin, Germany. Tupolew are from Ireland, Switzerland and France, and met through what you might call the Berlin noise-improv-drone-weird-free-Max/MSP-whatever scene. Tupolew don't sound like that, though: Tupolew is a rock band. Noise, Repeat, Silence, Pattern, Riff, Tense, Release, Drone, Feedback, Snare crack, Scrape, Pattern, End. Something like that. The tracks on this page were recorded live in our practice space on 27.11.2006 by Ansgar Tappert. We hope you like them. We have a real website here .
Other stuff we do: Monno ( Conspiracy Records ), Stupidity , Amoebazoid ( Osaka / Cycling '74 ), Double Adaptor ( Osaka ), Replication Fork ( Apostrov Recordings ), Sky Histoire , Maersk ( Risc ).
Available at concerts: 3-track CD with handmade covers, with 16 different cover photographs, all by snthr . All covers:
See them in more detail here .
