Angelchrome

About Me

Angelchrome is lovingly referred as 'Industrial Bossa Nova' due to the clash-convergence of musical influence from Gabriel Ralls and Judith Haustein... and you have to hear it to believe.
Gabriel grew up in the South West of England with a passion for dance and rock music, then moved to London in 2002 to study his production and never looked back. He went on to work as a freelance audio engineer / electro-composer alongside his work with video games... but Angelchrome has always been in his master plan.
In 2006, Gabriel met Judith during their Masters degree in London - sharing a love for PJ Harvey and Björk. Judith grew up in the South West of Germany and also moved to London to pursue her own music career in jazz-fusion and bossa nova; busking the Underground and earning praise for her band's performances across some of the city's most prestigious underground music venues.
In 2008, Gabriel discarded former identities of Angelchrome (none of which fitted what he felt was relevant to today's musical climate) and joined forces with Judith - adding her voice and musical eclecticism to make Angelchrome what he wanted it to be: A juxtaposition of talents and styles that sound like being drilled in the head, then kissed better afterwards...
At this moment new songs are being written / produced and will be added to this page as-and-when they're ready. Perfection takes time and we appreciate the support.
