Dresda is an instrumental band from Genova, Italy, born in ’05. Our name comes from the novel “slaughterhouse-five” by Kurt Vonnegut.
We released on 20 Dec 2008 our first record Pequod, under “Marsiglia Records”, that follows the Ep “We are the superfunkers!” published in Feb 2007.
We are influenced by the post rock movement, and most of all we are involved in soundtrack music, as we try to represent and to emphasize with our songs some never-shooted cinematic sequences.
We like to define our music as “frontier music” or as “an accompaniment of your favourite character fading out in the fog”.
In the last three years Dresda made lots of gigs in Italy and some songs have been published in some compilations and radio programs. After Pequod was released in December 08, the band recieved many good reviews from the dedicated press.
During year 2009 the band worked on motion picture soundtracks: the italian independent movie “Il caso Krolevsky”, and the short movie “La lingua del disordine”.
In Semptember ’09, the Romanian label Asiluum published PEQUOD with a new artwork.
In December ’09, we took part to the italian edition of the canadian documentary “RIP! A remix manifesto”, published by Feltrinelli.
Are We Dresda? Marco D’Oro, Daniel Campagne, Ivan Teso, Marco Cavaleri, Antonio Rodo
