Johannes Schmitz is a sound artist who has started early to deal with music of very different kinds: whether with Neue Musik, the surreal sound of British pop bands, the hard sounds of thrash and death metal bands - and soon, of course, with the sound sculptures of improvised music and jazz. Creating short and simple compositions with spontaneous and completely free passages Johannes Schmitz opens up a lot of opportunities for instant redesigning and reinventing his original ideas. By listening to this musician improvising to his own loops, putting a complete band ensemble into the listeners’ minds, thereby entering into communication with himself, there is only one thing left to say: a ventured and gained project. Unbeatable guitar.
