Band Members: Artists on Wohnzimmer Records:
The Artistry
while at a first listen the music of the four young men from the far west of austria reminds of the high-times of british guitar-pop, it still shows enough originality and - above all - talent, that it arguably is bound to cause a stir in the domestic music-scene.
The Beautiful Kantine Band
"against all the evil in the world - rock'n'roll and a hint of melancholy!" the beautiful kantine band merge the qualities of surf, the beatles and "die bambis" to a generation-uniting whole, that leads to unforgettable moments (particularly live).
Ben Martin
ben martin writes and records songs and performs them live.this might not sound very spectacular, but it is. because he is the best singer/songwriter this country has seen for a long time.
Data Hero
the viennese duo data hero succeeds in combining electro pop eighties style and indie-spirit. the new singer michael steppan clearly influenced the sound of the new record "the shade of your ray".
Fuzzman
fuzzman, the solo project of naked lunch's bass player herwig zamernik, has been resting in his drawer for years. now, finally, he is ready to present it to the public.
Kreisky
they don't sign anything, they don't donate money and they have apparently never learned to salute properly - the four surprisingly tall men of kreisky seem to feel very confident with what they are doing.
Litterbox
formed in 1994, the trio now call wohnzimmer their new home. the music? still sst-style. and just to make things clear: this is indie rock. not alternative.
Me
me a.k.a michael kamm from augsburg presents himself as a gifted writer of disarmingly honest and stripped-down acoustic songs. wouldn't it be such a strange word, his music could best be described as "chamber-pop-music".
Petsch Moser
originally named after a mogul-slope-skier from switzerland the quartet made a name for themselves in german speaking countries.
Rotifer
located in great britain, the austrian musician and journalist robert rotifer has found his perfect form of expression in classic, timeless songwriting with equally political and personal lyrics.
The Seesaw
the seesaw mix anglophile melodies - containing not only traces of the sixties, but also of new order and the pet shop boys - and the yearning setting sun of californian harmonies.
Shy
after six albums and almost 15 years of band history, we are now glad to welcome the masters of writing anglophile, melancholic popsongs with german lyrics on wohnzimmer.
The Staggers
the sixties garage horror surf trash monster from graz has now - after a bunch of (mostly sold out) seven inches - released its first full-length album on wohnzimmer records. help!! - it's raw! it's frantic! it's horrifying! it's the staggers.
Velojet
thats the name of this countrys hottest new indie-rock outfit. these girls and boys know their mccartney and they didnt skip garage-rock class, either.
Your Ten Mofo
in the mofo-world popsongs may well be 15 minutes long, and adjectives like "spherical" or "meditative" are given a new, positive meaning - apart from new-age-rubbish.
Zuka
the band with which it all began. without their song "kult" wohnzimmer records probably wouldn't even exist. forever in our hearts, but now, sadly, disbanded.
