If you’ve ever wondered what a brass band rave would sound like on the beach in Portugal at sunset this would be it. “Vila Nova de Gaia, Portugal: Raving into the sunset at Jardim do Morro.” Band camp was never like this.

A viral techno marching band which has taken social media by storm has tickets on sale for a London show for just under £50. German band Meute formed in 2015 when founder Thomas Burhoun had a vision of fusing his two favourite themes – trumpet and techno.
The 11-piece band, which features an assortment of brass and percussion instruments alongside a glockenspiel, have travelled across the world performing shows ever since, but have just gone viral once again. This came in the form of a spontaneous sunset street performance in October where a video of crowds dancing to their analogue tunes amassed 11 million views.
Dozens more clips of the band posted on different social media platforms have amassed millions more since, with one video captioned “this is the first time I’ve seen an analogue electronic song”.
Translated from the Portuguese: This is the first time I’ve seen an analog electronic song.
