Note: The beautiful background picture of this banner is by Michael R. Lipe ... please check out his art ... it's really great ... (just click the link in my Top Friends list)!______________________________________________________ _______________About krautiopharm: I started making music in the early 80s in several bands from Avantgarde New Wave (Wahnvorstellung) via Electronic NDW (Schatten unter Eis) to Psychedelic 60s-Punk (The Trivial Heroes). In my "real life" I am a screenwriter but music is still my favourite waste of time. After almost 20 years of musical silence I thought it was about time to start a new project. It is called "krautiopharm" and tries to build a bridge from 70s Krautrock to modern electric chill-out/dance music (you'll find the link in my Top 8 friends list) ... but as I still like to slip in "my oulde dancin' boots" to do the John Travolta every now and then I've recently begun working on a new project ... The Discodelic Orchestra ... I hope you'll enjoy the music - and life too, of course! Peace, Michael ...
