Sturmfrau is a Berlin-based sonic anarchist fusing synthpunk, kraut electronics, and raw future noise. Unfiltered, untamed, and unapologetic—she is the sound of rebellion.

Matthew Peterson (b. 1984) writes music that explores frontiers of sound and expression. He has composed over sixty works commissioned and performed by orchestras, choirs, opera companies, chamber ensembles, and soloists around the world. He lives in Dalarna, Sweden.
