MODERN QUARTET

THE DARK SIDE OF THE MOOD

About Me

MODERN QUARTET is a band who have been making music in Serbia for over ten years, creating a fusion of modern dance music with the distinctive rhythms of jazz. So you could call it electronic jazz. It is music for modern times, composed and synthesised on computers but also played live on stage and in clubs in multi-media performances that combine music, dance and video. The core members of Modern Quartet are Leche, Mastabear and Vanjus three guys and three computers, who collaborate with various musicians depending on the nature of each project. MQ means music and movement, sound and vision. Modern Quartet is a collaboration of music technology artists who play their original electronic music live, in a multi-media music presentation where the musicians interact with dancers, computers, video screens, electronic music editing machines and synthesisers, on stage, in concert and at music festivals. Modern Quartet aims to provide a total entertainment experience, exploiting computer technology to create a show that is stimulating and exciting, both musically and visually. They mix live and recorded performances from musicians and dancers. The formula is totally flexible, integrating music, movement, sound and vision in creative formats that are limited only by imagination. ....text by David Browne
