In 2002 Eduard Hartter, Richard Rotfuß aka Richard Liapin and Markus Liefke aka
Liefko founded Afrilounge. With this, the three friendly djs and producers established
a solid basis in order to bundle their creative energy and to share their predelection
for electronic music.
After two years of common producing in the studio, they contributed their first
track, „The Dudeâ€, to the Full Body Workout compilation of Berlin..s Label
„GetPhysicalMusicâ€. In 2005 a cooperation with Patrick Chardronnet led to their first
own EP „Phonix†and the compilation track „Just for a little peekâ€, both appearing on
Steve Bug..s PokerFlat Recordings. Furthermore they remixed MANDY..s successful
clubhit „Body Language†for „Get Physical Music“ and where also represented on „Full
Body Workout 2“ with another track.
2006 was a mindblowing year for Afrilounge
since the release of the „Pin & Fko EP“ on Alexander Flitsch..s new founded label
Connaisseur Recordings gained massive attention in the club scene. „Afrilounge..s
Visionary Remix†for Nick Curly..s “Another Tearjerker†on 8Bit Records hit the
closing ceremony of this years Love Parade in Berlin like a bomb.2007 is a very buisy
year for Afrilounge. Till now, they dropped EP’S and remixes for 8bit records,
Connaisseur Recordings, Kassette and Playmate.
From Minimal to Techno, but always funky and groovy. Afrilounge is not afraid to get
in touch with various styles of music. Besides long nights in the studio they have
been touring the international
club scene, leaving behind musical traces in such notable clubs like Tresor
and Watergate (Berlin), Ultraschall (Munich), M1 (Stuttgart), Loft (Ludwigshaven)
and Supermarket (Zurich), only to name a few.
