!Bang Elektronika 2011



Andy and I were rehearsing this week, clearing out the cobwebs and trying to remember what the hell we did when we played some of these tracks back in 1994 LOL ;)

We're heading off to Berlin for the !Bang Elektronika reunion show in September, and we've been having a blast blowing the dust off the tracks...

Check out us banging our way thru the old DAF classic, Der Mussolini below ;)

We haven't played this since 1991..., i just programmed the sequencer, jumped on the drums, and off we went...i would like to think we did it justice...

Below that, Flasche in der Hand, a later track that i don't think we ever played live, but i'd have to defer to Andy for that lol

BERLIN 2011


Posters for my upcoming gigs in Berlin this September

First one is a great one, opening for Berlin's electro goddess, Nora Below

It's going to be an awesome night of new wave, electronic, ebm, 80s, you name it :)




And something I never thought would happen,
a reunion of a band I started in 1988 >

Our 1993 CD "Aktivierung!" has been re-released and remastered by Infacted Recordings in Germany.

We're going to dig out the classic industrial dance EBM rhythms,
and mix it up with the new wave electropop of my new side project "The Beautiful Spies",
which has a touch of Datafreq with the vocals of Dina Naskos,
who sang in a previous band with me "Colecovision" from 1999 - 2003

All in all, it's going to be a great week in Berlin...which has come to be my second home :)
