Piano Interrupted is the brainchild of London-based pianist and composer Tom Hodge and French electronic producer Franz Kirmann. Coming from two very different musical worlds (electronica, pop and techno for Franz; classical and minimalism for Tom), the two musicians had been friends for a long time before deciding to make music together. 

Their working process involves digital manipulation of musical phrases originally played by Tom on the piano but that has now extended to other instruments or any sounds that the pair find interesting to sample and process sonically. The resulting music is a blend of post-classical and ambient, where organic electronic beats pulse over intricate sonic textures and unusual time signatures, where contemplative moments contrast with elaborative and complex melodies.
