The Magic I.D. is a German experimental music quartet. The quartet was formed in 2005 by clarinetists Kai Fagaschinski and Michael Thieke and musicians Margareth Kammerer and Christof Kurzmann.[1] They released two records, Till My Breath Gives Out, in 2008 under Erstwhile Records label[2] and I'm So Awake/Sleepless I Feel, in 2011 via Staubgold Records.[3]

The quartet's musical style is hard to describe, containing elements of experimental jazz, pop, folk and abstract music. The "twin" clarinets combine with the voice and electronics to create a unique soundscape[3] characterized by extensive use of pauses, long notes, harmonic singing and dissonant tonal clusters.[4]
