HAND - Sascha Bachmann

HAND is a solo project by Sascha Bachmann. He is a musician from Berlin who loves creating experimental sounds and dance beats.

When Bachmann was a kid in the 80’s, he found his father’s Tesla tape machine in the basement. He started listening to music with his friends and became passionate about it. The foundational stone was laid. It is in part because of these early experiences that he has been working in his own analog recording studio for the last 10 years.

As a drummer he is continuously collaborating with different bands and projects such as Sirius Mo, Jan Driver etc., always trying to explore his own vision and ideas about music. Inspired by all kinds of art, he finally starts creating the concept for his first solo album.

Bachmann sees himself as a progressive musician who is constantly looking for new challenges. He has toured across Europe, composed film scores, contributed to television productions, and played on numerous studio albums.Bachmann studied drums with Holger Nell at the Hanns Eisler School of Music in Berlin.

Bachmann teaches music on a regular basis, giving workshops at the Bimm University, the Catalyst Institute and many more.

Beyond his music, Bachmann has spent recent years exploring experimental analog video, releasing works across various independent labels, and hosting tape-looping workshops that have become a fixture in Berlin’s DIY sound art community. His work carries a quiet rigor, a commitment to analog craft in an increasingly digital world. “These are the loops that stayed with me,” he says. “I hope they stay with you, too.
