The Dresden duo Heimstatt Yipotash was founded in 2001, has been permanently based at the Dortmund scene label HANDS Productions since 2004 and has given over seventy concerts during its ongoing career. In addition to many club gigs their live history also includes appearances at the major German festivals of the scene (Elektroanschlag, Forms of Hands, Maschinenfest, NCN Festival, Noize Of Live, Wave Gotik Treffen), as well as at festivals abroad like Infest (UK) and Shadowplay Festival (B). Musically, the band most likely belongs to the genre „Experimental / Rhythm Noise“. However, Heimstatt Yipotash have always experimented with elements of other musical genres and reinvented themselves from release to release. What remains constant in their work is the largely rhythmic and danceable interpretation of their unconventional mixture of rhythm noise, industrial, drum’n’bass, techno, dubstep, breakbeats and often the use of deliberately „unconventional“ samples and sounds.
