RUG

RUG consists of internationally renowned jazz drummer Hari Ganglberger and composer for contemporary music and guitarist Mario Bergamasco. The duo operates at the interface between New York School minimal and an updated expression of Krautrock. RUG expands this musical foundation with overtone-rich improvisations and contemporary playing techniques.

Rubik's-Cube-like rhythmic interweavings create a wide space, both in distance and upwards, and not least inwards. The compositions and performances of RUG become a vehicle to combine and define sonic surfaces, dots, strokes, colors and forms.

Their debut album Dark Matter was released on September 26, 2025. Physical LP release to be announced.
