Gerwin Eisenhauer brings Aphex Twin to the jazz club stage with strings and drums
On Tuesday, October 20, 2026, the Jazz Club in Leeren Beutel, Regensburg transforms into a laboratory for electronic soundscapes, jazz, and classical orchestration. Gerwin Eisenhauer’s Twenty Strings & A Drumkit reinterprets the music of Aphex Twin, combining precise drumming with an extraordinary string quartet.
Electronic sound architecture meets acoustic energy
The compositions of Richard D. James, known as Aphex Twin, are among the defining works of electronic and experimental music. In this concert version, the complex structures gain a new physical dimension: Pulsating rhythms, shifted patterns, and atmospheric soundscapes merge with the warm resonance of violin, viola, and cello.
Twenty Strings, a drum kit, and maximum tension
Together with bassist Christian Diener, as well as Franziska Kiesel and Ekaterina Zeynetdinova on violins, Angi Agudelo on viola, and Jakob Helbich on cello, Eisenhauer develops an unusual live language. The orchestration leverages contrasts: filigree string lines encounter electronically shaped grooves, while the drums drive the synchronization of sound layers.
Gerwin Eisenhauer: Jazz, Drum’n’Bass, and innovation
Gerwin Eisenhauer studied at the Drummers Collective in New York and is active as a jazz drummer, composer, educator, and bandleader. With formations such as Trio ELF, he connected jazz tradition with Drum’n’Bass, techno, and electronic aesthetics. His musical work has been awarded, among others, with the Cultural Prize of the District of Upper Palatinate and the Cultural Prize of the City of Regensburg.
Live atmosphere in the Leeren Beutel
The concert begins at 8:00 PM, with entry starting at 7:00 PM. In the concentrated space of the jazz club, the stage performance unfolds its special effect: dry drums, breathing strings, and driving bass lines create a concert experience between club energy and chamber music. The audience experiences Aphex Twin’s music not as distant electronics, but as immediate, acoustic movement.
Conclusion: Hearing Aphex Twin anew
Gerwin Eisenhauer’s Twenty Strings & A Drumkit promises an extraordinary concert evening for jazz fans, lovers of electronic music, and curious listeners. Those who want to experience the intersection of improvisation, modern classical, and rhythmic precision live will find a unique sound event at the Jazz Club in Leeren Beutel.
