Hundreds is a German sibling duo consisting of Eva and Philipp Milner, formed in Hamburg in 2008. Their sound identity is built on a sophisticated blend of electropop, indietronica, and art pop, characterized by Eva's airy, soprano vocals and Philipp's meticulous production.
They emerged during the late 2000s wave of European electronic acts that sought to bridge the gap between the organic singer-songwriter tradition and the precision of IDM. Their aesthetic is heavily influenced by the natural world, specifically the forests of Germany, which informs both their lyrical themes and their sonic palette. Critically, they are often compared to Björk and The Knife for their ability to construct unique sonic universes that feel separate from mainstream pop trends. Over their career, they have evolved from the minimalist, piano-driven structures of their debut to the more complex, layered, and occasionally darker arrangements found on 'Aftermath' and 'Wilderness'. They occupy a specific niche in the German scene, appealing to fans of both cerebral electronic music and emotive indie pop.
