Kitbuilders are an electro-duo Ripley and Benway from Cologne, Germany.
They are producing electro since 1997 and released their music on labels like Breakin' Records, Electrecord, World Electric, Television, Vertical, Ersatz Audio, and most recently EC Underground. Their style is a mixture of Electro, New Wave and IDM.
Blending elements of electro, IDM and new wave, Kitbuilders‘ forthcoming new album, Stupid Games, is their first long player since 2019, but arguably their most all-encompassing – bringing together brand-new tracks with specially edited and remastered material recorded over more than two decades.
