Jammin' Unit HTML bio 'JAMMIN' UNIT
The album 'Deaf, Dub And Blind' on Blue Planet/UK was chosen by German top music magazine 'Spex' as one of its top ten records of 1997.
The LP 'Are You Prepared?' and a multitude of others singles were also
released on Pharma. Check out his version of Kung Fu Fighting 'K.U.N.G.'

Kraftwerk'. This project was created together with Ingmar Koch from Cologne to explore the barriers between acoustic experimentation and audience reaction.
