Artist Biography
Available in:

Berlin’s Andromeda Mega Express Orchestra is made up of 18 young musicians with a multiplicity of musical and cultural roots. Founded in 2006, the formation plays the ensemble director and saxophonist Daniel Glatzel’s compositions.
His music defies musical categorization, sparkling between Jazz and New Mu- sic with musical quotes of traditional works – full of staggering, crazy changes and refreshing irony. (neue musikzeitung)
After the first album Take Off!, BUM BUM has been released by alien transistor in May 2012 and was incredibly successful: Guido Moebius about BUM BUM: „As soon as we are seized by a groove, a succession of notes, a harmony, a voice from a completely different world of sound throws us off track and the mood changes as the orchestra spirals to heady heights. Pleasure is gained by sensory overload.“
At home in concert halls, jazz clubs and – during common concerts with the band The Notwist– big venues and pop-festivals, this unique hybrid of big band, chamber ensemble and progressive rock orchestra is an event that mixes up and re-orders old expectations and habits.
The Andromeda Mega Express Orchestra has been celebrated by critics (Süddeutsche Zeitung, Frankfurter Allgemeine Zeitung, Die Zeit, Neue Zürcher Zeitung ...) and has played among others at the Jazzfest Berlin, Philharmonie/Berlin, Volksbühne Berlin, Kampnagel Hamburg, Paradi-so/Amsterdam, German JazzMeeting/Bremen, Gasteig Munich, Philharmonie Cologne, Porgy & Bess/Vienna, Dresdner Jazztage, JazzBaltica, Gare du nord/Basel and toured in South Korea, Kazakhstan and South America.
