about
FURT is the electronic composition/performance duo formed by Richard Barrett and Paul Obermayer in London in 1986. FURT’s dense and intricate musical forms are produced at every level by an interpenetration between free improvisation and systematic composition, and use primarily concrete (sampled/processed) materials. This activity is concerned above all with allying the physicality and expressivity of sound-structures to FURT’s vision - but also with deriving methods of musical production from the nature of the (electronic) medium itself. FURT is also the shortform for Farin Urlaub Racing Team. It is the Solo-Project of Farin Urlaub, the singer and guitarist of the german Punkrockband "Die Ärzte". FURT contains of 11 persons, 6 of them are women. The first album of FURT is called "Livealbum of Death". The first single was called "Zehn" and was really successful in germany! FURT is going on tour in autumn 2006! User-contributed text is available under the Creative Commons By-SA License; additional terms may apply.
