"This atmospherically saturated and visually gifted collection of songs is certain to make an impression on those lucky enough to lend it a willing ear." - Gaffa

"Like a softer, more organic Efterklang; yet just as worthy" - Manchester Music

Altmodisch formed in the Winter of 2007 in Copenhagen, Denmark. Their first EP was released in the fall of 2007 on the Danish label Indietronica.dk while their second EP was released in February 2008 on another Danish label RUST music. Having signed to Regular Beat in 2009, Altmodish's debut album has just been released. The album was recorded and produced by Altmodisch and Tim Sorensen in Copenhagen.

Influenced by Notwist, The Postal Service and Portishead, Altmodisch have been compared to the likes of fellow Scandanavian artists Sigur Ros and The Sugarcubes back in their homeland. The band use a variety of traditional instruments on the album such as violin, accordian, trumpet and cello alongside drum machines, sampled loops and other digital elements.

Altmodisch are:

Hans-Christian Pommergaard: Keys, guitars & vocals
Thomas Mondrup: Guitars & Vocals
Mathias Lyhne: Programming & live-sampling
Kristoffer Lyhne: Drums & live-sampling
Christoffer Nejrup: Trumpet, accordian, keys

(Plus various guest musicians)
