Bruckner is a the name of a duo formed by vocalist and performer Didi Bruckmayr and electronic musician Bernhard Loibner.

Bruckner demonstrate musical spontaneity and commitment to experimental musical approaches. They evoke associations to archaic scenes of shaman rituals in a synthetic space. Bruckmayr’s ecstatic de-familiarized chants seem like ritual incantations combined with Loibner’s staccato-like machine rhythms and synthetic noise eruptions, which seem to beat the tattoo to a wild dance around a cultish bonfire of a transhumanistic but at the same time ancient culture. The soudscape oscillates between silence and noise, the abstract textures of contemporary classical to bizarre nightmares of early industrial music. A complex mix of sound layers unfolds, taking the lead then suddenly drop and wither away – only to be reborn again in the next moment.
