new Album "RIDING THE FIRE" out on 11.01.08

About Me


PITCHTUNER
Is a hundred percent indie and dancefloor,with four to the floor drum and bass, dribbling guitars and electronic vibes. Pitchtuner's third album 'Riding The Fire' partly produced by Berliner Moses Schneider (Beatsteaks, Tocotronic, Mediengruppe Telekommander etc.) presents the chemically homogeneous genre crossing band in a pop mold. Pitchtuner started in 2002 with their debut "Flight Up The Winding Stairs." Their sound consolidates styles between electro house, over laying various harmonious elements. DISCOGRAPHY:
