Sascha Brosamer
is an interdisciplinary artist and electronic music composer from Berlin. He is exploring the archaeology of sound and its projection into the digital future.

Brosamer studied Music and Media Art at HKB in Bern, Switzerland and graduated as Meisterschüler in 2014 with honors in Painting from the State Academy of Fine Arts Karlsruhe, Germany. His work has been shown at Zwinger Gallery Berlin, Club Silencio Paris, Bundeskunsthalle Bonn, WP8 Düsseldorf, BB15 Linz, Oz Gallery Tokyo, Le Case d'Arte Milan and Cooper Union Gallery New York. He is the founder of Global Forest, an artist residency in the former studio of Martin Kippenberger in the Black Forest/Germany and curator of Dual Sessions, a multidisciplinary format that brings together turntable industry, science, art, music and pop.

Currently he is engaged in early technology of sound reproduction, especially the gramophone and 78" shellac records, an ancestor of today's club culture.

In collaboration with Graham Dunning (London), he released the album “Glocken” (2019, Invisible City Records). Together they dig deep into the beauty of textural studies, analogue media and surface details. As well as the Transoceanic EP (2020) on BB15/Linz, which deals with the cultural imagination of dematerialisation, historical sound carriers and digital colonialism.

His latest vinyl edition "Donaueschingen 2020" is a sound recording of the Donaueschinger Musiktage 2020, which was cancelled due to the pandemic. Brosamer documented the festival, that did not take place in a performative act of silence on tape. This record was the first release on the Cologne based label “Total Silence”, he co-founded with Manuel Schaub in 2021.

Brosamer's studio is the sound archive. He researches and works in the Phono Museum Paris, the Berlin Phonogramm-Archive and the Schmauder Collection, one of the most extensive collections of historical sound recordings.
