Stahlr is the new project of Anne Broekman (MTT). Inspired by brutalism, horror movies and silent movie actresses she started Stahlr to express a more conceptual sound than she made with MTT. With Stahlr it’s all about contrasts and opposites: the overwhelming futuristic forms of brutalist architecture, masculinity, concrete versus flowing lines, subtle expression and femininity. In search of the right sound, Broekman started working with electronic producer Krampfhaft. Stahlr sounds like Cocteau Twins performing a musical version of Mary Shelley’s Frankenstein in a concrete parking garage.
