ML Buch at Fasching

Copenhagen-based ML Buch is one of the leading figures in the much-talked-about indie scene that has emerged in the Danish capital in recent years – a scene that has made us cast envious (albeit reluctant!) glances across the Øresund. Here, dreamy ’80s pop, futuristic sound textures and electronic experimentation come together in music that is as immediate as it is full of friction and intrigue. In Buch’s musical universe, compositions take shape almost architecturally. She creates raw material by playing, tweaking and assembling, leaving room for both chance and intuition to influence the final form. Seven-string electric guitars in open tunings meet synthesizers, electronic layers and crystalline melodies. The result is a kind of art pop where the familiar is constantly slipping away, making room for something stranger to emerge. Her latest full-length album, Suntub (2023), was described by Pitchfork as a shift away from the electronic sound worlds of her debut album Skinned towards more shimmering guitars and rock drums, with traces of everything from Roxy Music and shoegaze to ’90s indie. Buch has performed at Roskilde Festival, Pitchfork Paris and Pitchfork Festival in Chicago, taken part in Laurie Anderson’s Talking Choir, and collaborated with artists and institutions including Astrid Sonne, CTM and poet Ingvild Lothe. Now, one of Copenhagen’s most distinctive voices comes to Fasching. Doors: 18:00 Live: 20:00 ____ Köpenhamnsbaserade ML Buch är en av förgrundsfigurerna
