superterz stands for band and project, for improvisation and work in progress, for abolition of the antagonism between electronic and acoustic music, for live-sampling and recycling. it was always an ambitious goal for the band to create an own musical language: superterz continually move frayed, alienated, distorted and reinterpreted sound fragments into new surroundings from which a new darkly shimmering sound world comes into existence. the music pretend to be simple, but every time new traces can be discovered, breaks and changes fit cogently. these are animated noise installations where deconstructed disco fragments also find their well lighted place. likewise the music live from images and allusions with a delayed-action effect. it is the own sound that constitutes the characteristics and the appeal of superterz.

superterz is marcel vaid (guitar, repeater, sounds), ravi vaid (electronics, sounds) and oliver schmid (drums, percussion, epads). on stage superterz is supported by nicole biermeier (visuals) and marc flury (moog, bass). superterz released 2001 their first album 'material für den rand / material for the margin' (poetenpop records / swiss music pool). for their new album "standards - 23 songs and fragments" superterz worked with the singers emilie welti (fisher), priska zemp (heidihappy) and robert alexander (sendling).
