Band Members:
Maximilian Lopp
producer, keys and percussionist
Maximilian Lopp has been active in producing music professionally since 1992. In his early years he was very active in producing HipHop with local crews in the Frankfurt region. As he found it increasingly difficult to identify with that kind of music, he re-focussed on trip-hop and clubmusic. Luckily for him the mid-nineties saw the awakening of Drum'n'bass in earnest. Maximilian developed his own approach to electronic music by primarily mixing elements of these three directions.
He kicked off the project Blackfish with his first release on the Inside 02 compilation (Poets Club Records). Successful,and busy years followed. Maximilian produced Blackfish's first longplayer Pole Navigation (2001), did Remixes for Compost records , Poets club records and Wohnton (2002). He produced exclusive tracks for companies outside the usual music business, e.g. for the synthesizer giant Waldorf, which released the Zeitlos-Compialtion as a give-away-CD for the Namm-Trade in Chicago 2002. With his partner in music Andi, the other person behind Blackfish, he worked on the second album:“Hidden Shore†was released in 2004 on maxelect records/Edel.
