Об исполнителе:
Influential underground NDW (Neue Deutsche Welle) band from Hamburg, Germany, founded in 1979, dissolved 1984. This band (especially with the early singles and first album) proved to be a creative melting pot which can be seen by the careers of the band members after Palais Schaumburg: [a11325] became a highly acclaimed pioneer in avantgarde electronics with intensive use of sampling techniques Thomas Fehlmann became an early techno pioneer, a resident DJ in the legendary Berlin techno club 'Tresor' and a member of the influential ambient project The Orb [a48077] pioneered in avantgarde industrial music with [a38794] and solo projects Moritz von Oswald 'invented' minimal / dub techno in the early 1990s with his projects and label Basic Channel & Chain Reaction Influenced by the US avantgarde cult band The Residents, founding members [a11325] and Thomas Fehlmann joined by Timo Blunck and [a48077] (who was also playing in the punk band [a58780]) tried to produce a new style of avantgarde dance music, mixing hard beats and funky riffs with dadaist lyrics. They named themselves after the German chancellor's residence 'Palais Schaumburg' in Bonn. Their debut release 'Rote Lichter' on the independent Zickzack label in 1980 was followed by 'Telephon / Kinder Der Tod' which became a small underground success. Mid 1981 [a48077] left to join the industrial avantgarde band [a38794]. He was replaced by [a239782]. Their first full-length album, the self-titled 'Palais Schaumburg' saw the release on a major label. After its release, [a11325] defected for a solo career. The following LP Lupa, which was released later in 1982, brought a surprising change of style, the album added horns and a slight jazz fusion influence to their sound. Their third and final album 1984's 'Parlez-Vous Schaumburg?' was produced by singer [a106453] of Neonbabies/DÖF fame. It threw in some Latin and big band touches into the mix. Yet it failed to attract commercial success and shortly after release the band dissolved.
