Book Description
Mouse on Mars is one of Germany’s most influential electronic music groups whose intelligent, modern pop sound is appreciated by fans worldwide. As the band played with ideas for a remix album, they also decided to remix their work in a book format.
Jan Werner and Andi Thoma from Mouse on Mars invited over 30 artists, musicians, theorists and friends to contribute to the book. Using the band’s songs, albums and concerts as well as their personal experience with the music as inspiration, the contributors created commentaries, paintings, drawings and collages. The results gathered in this book document the visual, artistic and theoretical contexts of modern electronic music.
The book includes a preface by author and journalist Dietmar Dath and an exclusive 10-minute Mouse on Mars bonus on an audio mini-CD.
The book will accompany the exhibit “Mouse on Mars – Interviewed” that will be held in the Kunsthalle in Dusseldorf, Germany.
