GNOOMES are a psychedelic kosmische-pop duo crafting “seriously delirious and transportive sounds” (Clash) — a shimmering mix of shoegaze radiance, motorik rhythms, and dreamy electronic experimentation. Formed in Perm, Russia, and now based in Slovenia, Gnoomes are a band in constant motion. From the shimmering dreampop of their debut It’s Moonboow-Time, Boy to the hypnotic techno-kraut drive of Ngan! and Tschak!, their music unfolds like a cosmic road trip through space and emotion. On their latest EP Uletai (2024), they continue “re-assessing and extrapolating sonic boundaries” (Loud and Quiet), led by the mesmerizing 8-minute track “Ule.” After a long period of performing as a duo, Sasha and Masha Piankov have now been joined by drummer Martin Kramberger from the Slovenian band Moving as a Giant. The return of live drums has given Gnoomes a renewed sense of power and minimalism — amplifying their sound with raw energy and precision.
