With great enthusiasm the Gebrüder Teichmann know how to create temporary spaces where musicians of different cultures can meet to create new music together. Hannes and Andi Teichmann were musically influenced in their childhood in their parents' private jazz club near Regensburg, which offered stages for Indian and African musicians. After their own children's punk band Totalschaden, they were captivated by the burgeoning electronic club culture in Berlin in the 1990s: techno clubs and raves as places where traditional social norms no longer played a role, where anyone could try things out and anything was possible, and on whose dance floors Berliners from West and East met as equals. The two brothers tie in with this lived utopia when they invite a group of selected musicians to temporary sound camps in Kenya, Sri Lanka, Mexico, Pakistan or India or research the unconventional interfaces of contemporary, experimental or traditional music. As live musicians, they seek the organic and direct interweaving of analog electronics and acoustics.

Their collaborations range from Ensemble Modern to Joachim Irmler (Faust). Their label NOLAND bundles their way from underground to interground. They received the cultural promotion award of their hometown Regensburg. They have co-curated projects such as Fieldlines,Ten Cities, BLNRB, Soundcamp South Asia, Mondmaschine, Karachi Files.
