about
Watch the men fall is a trip-hop project (drums, bass, keyboards, samplers/electronics, vocals) which is the convergence of earlier organic and electronic experiences. For over five years now, drawing its inspiration from sources as diverse as new-wave (The Cure), postrock (Sigur Rós) and trip-hop (Portishead), Watch the men fall are constantly blurring the frontiers between recorded sequences and live instruments, creating intense and emotional downtempo music. The band combines hip-hop beats, atmospheric synths lines, low hypnotic basslines with the singer's ethereal voice. After a set of concerts, watch the men fall released their first 4 track CD (October e.p.) in 2003, which was positively reviewed among the alternative music scene. This resulted in more than a hundred airplays and several interviews on national and private Swiss radio stations. After two important dates in 2004 (Montreux Jazz Festival-off and opening for Mich Gerber), the group decided to focus on the realization of a new album that was recently released.
