Accessory sind ein Qualitätsgarant für einen satten Tanzflächen-Molotovcocktail aus EBM, Techno und Trance. Auch auf ihrer neuen Doppel-CD, „More than Machinery“, lässt die Band nichts anbrennen… und zimmert saftige Beats, derbe Bässe, eingängige Trance Hooklines und Ohrwurm-Melodien zu feinster Electro-Hit-Ware zusammen. Titel wie „Tanzflächenmann“ oder „Acsy Girl“ geben die Marschrichtung für das Album vor: dominierten auf dem Vorgänger-Release noch Science-Fiction-lastige Themen und eine dunklere Grundstimmung, so zielt „More than Machinery“ klar auf die Clubs. Geradlinig nach vorne preschend praktizieren Accessory auf dem Album die Reduktion auf das Wesentliche – in Tracks, die das Beste der klassischen Electronic Body Music mit den satten Klängen von heute vermischen, und die abgehen, wie eine Rakete. „More than Machinery“ wird als Doppel-CD erscheinen… CD 1 wartet mit 11 neuen Club-Granaten auf, während CD 2 mit drei weiteren, neuen Songs, diversen Remixen (u. a. von Ashbury Heights und Acylum), sowie vier Titeln des bis dato nie veröffentlichten 1998er Albums „Disabled Future“ ebenfalls reich bestückt sein wird. Auf „More than Machinery“ wird nicht lange gefackelt, sondern mit vollem elektronischen Einsatz direkt zur Sache gegangen: Accessory geben EBM ein zeitgemäßes, neues Gewand. This stuff was just made for the dance floor!
The name Accessory has always been a trademark of quality when it comes to solid dance floor Molotov-cocktails comprised of EBM, Techno and Trance. It is, thus, little wonder that, on their new double CD “More than Machinery”, the band goes full throttle yet again … combining smashing beats, hard bass, addictive Trance hook lines and catchy melodies to create some of the finest Electro tunes around. Song titles like “Tanzflächenmann”, or “Acsy Girl” prove to be quite programmatic: where the last release was dominated by SciFi-themes and a dark atmosphere, “More than Machinery” aims directly at the clubs. Straightforward and direct, Accessory have reduced their sound to the bare essentials, creating an album full of rocketing tracks that mingle the best of classic EBM with the ultra-fat sounds of today. “More than Machinery” is released as a double CD… with CD 1 containing 11 all-new club smashers and CD 2 boasting three more new songs, bone-shaking remixes (among them mixes by Ashbury Heights and Acylum) plus four songs from the never-before-released album “Disabled Future”, from 1998. With “More than Machinery”, Accessory are providing the scene with an all-new, thoroughly modernized outlook on EBM. The music never holds back, but always attacks relentlessly with full electronic force. This stuff was just made for the dance floor!

THE BAND HISTORY


The Accessory-project was founded in 1994 by Dirk Steyer. Right after Kay Resch followed his musical inspiration and joined the project. Inspired by Electro-/Techno-Acts of the early nineties, 1996 Accessory themselves published a first tape: "Electronic Controlled Mind". Half a year later followed the official limited CD-release of "Electronic Controlled Mind" on the small label SD-Image. Further followed in self-release 1998 the tape "Injection". At the end of the millennium Ivo Lottig joined the band Accessory. From now onwards he was a good support live as well as in the studio. In springtime 2000 Accessory went on tour through Germany for 3 weeks with AND ONE. At this time Kay Resch split up from the band and Jukka Sandeck came as the new third man. Right after the label-contract with the record company OUT OF LINE followed. So, it happened that at the beginning of the year 2001the first really official album "jukka2147.de" was released and it excited the German electro-scene as well as the international scene. Directly after the release the band had a tour through Germany with "Terminal Choice". At the end of 2001 the EP "Deadline" was released, which brought up the Hit-Song with the same name Deadline". The breakthrough was done, what was also stated at the tour of 5 weeks with Hocico in March/April 2002. Everywhere, at home and in foreign countries Accessory excited its audience. At the end of 2002 Accessory publish the Single "I say go", which was pioneering for the album "Titan", what was released in May 2003. Titan successfully continued the style and trend of Accessory ... and gave the band an enormous growth of new fans all over the world. In December 2003 Jukka Sandeck leaves the band because of professional reasons. However, it goes on straight foreward. The new album "Forever & Beyond" is out since April 2005. After many live concerts in Israel, Italy or Germany Accessory released the current album “Forever and Beyond” in April 2005 which outshined all previously released albums of the band. The first pressing of the album was released in a glamorous digipak inclusive a bonus CD with special songs and videos. Afterwards a short production break followed in which mastermind Dirk finished a one year training as sound engineer. But in spring 2007 Accessory came back in concentrated energy as usual with the song “Ewigkeit”. Just a few months later the EP “Holy Machine” was released under Out of Line Music on August 10, 2007. At the same time Ivo Lottig left the band because of job-related reasons. In autumn 2007 Mike Koenigsberger accompanied Accessory. Now the band works in its new formation on the new album “More than Machinery” which will be propably released under Out of Line at the end of March.
