Real name: Ernst Karel, Kyle Bruckmann

Members: Kyle Bruckmann, Ernst Karel

"The Ernst and Kyle Group" is the duo of Kyle Bruckmann and Ernst Karel, formed during the late 1990s in Chicago. Their music is a combination of traditional and extended wind techniques with anachronistic (non-digital) electronic processing, they carefully sculpt a bizarre yet organic soundworld of shifting tones, sudden and creeping textures, elusive suggestions of possible melody, and microscopic noise.
