Microstoria

Microstoria is an avant-garde electronic duo that emerged in the early 1990s, comprising German musicians Markus Popp, who is also known for his work with Oval, and Jan St. Werner, a member of the band Mouse on Mars. Their sound is an intricate blend of experimental electronic music, incorporating elements of glitch, ambient, and minimalist music that was ahead of its time. Known for their innovative use of digital signal processing and computer-based composition, Microstoria explores the interplay between structure and randomness, pushing the boundaries of electronic music while maintaining a distinct sense of melody and texture.

Since their debut, Microstoria has released a series of critically acclaimed albums, including "Init Ding," "Snd," and "Model 3, Step 2," showcasing their evolving approach to sound design and composition. Albums like "Reprovisers" and "Improvisers" highlight their willingness to experiment and collaborate, further expanding their sonic palette. Their work has not only contributed to the evolution of electronic music but has also influenced a wide range of artists and genres. By remastering earlier works, such as "init ding + _snd" and "Communerism & Endless Summer NAMM," Microstoria has preserved their legacy, allowing new audiences to experience their groundbreaking soundscapes. Through their innovative compositions and unique approach to music-making, Microstoria remains a seminal force in the world of experimental electronic music.
