About Me

"STRAGULA - LOWFI, ELECTRONIC, INDIE, PUNK, FOLK"
STRAGULA FLOODS THE WORLD SINCE THE BEGINNING OF THE 80IES WITH CASSETTE TAPES. THE SIMPLE, BUT BRILLIANT MONO-LOWFI-4-TRACK RECORDINGS DELIVER TIMELESS DOCUMENTS OF POPMUSIC. IN THE GREY ZONE BETWEEN ROCK, INDEPENDENT, PRE-TECHNO, PUNK AND FOLK-MUSIC THE AUDITOR MEETS BESIDES THE TRADITIONAL INSTRUMENTS OF A ROCKBAND OLD FRIENDS FROM THE PREHISTORIC TIMES OF ELECTRONIC INSTRUMENTS, SUCH AS BONTEMPI-ORGAN, DR. BOEHM ORGAN, CASIO MT-65, BOSS DR. RHYTHM DR-55, HOHNER CLAVINET L, THE MONOPHONE KORG MICRO-PRESET SYNTH ... AFTER THE SUCCESS OF THE CD "STRAGULA MEETS THE HANGMAN", RELEASED ON SNOWDONIA LABEL, ITALY, STRAGULA FORMED A BAND.

Band Members: "PLUSHBUG" (FORMERLY DIE GELB) IS THE FEMALE VOICE, PLAYS THE ORGAN SOLOS AND HANDLES DIVERSE EFFECTS, LIKE THE LEGENDARY "NUN". HER EXPRESSIVE STYLE DIFFERS FROM HOT TO LOVELY! "MY-GOLL ELEKTROLURCH" (FORMERLY SWELLINGS) SUPPORTS, REFINES, AND EVEN DEFINES THE BASIC BEATS OF THE KEYBOARDS WITH HIS SMALL, BUT VERY EFFECTIVE DRUM SET. PURE SUPERDRUMMING! "FRANK BRIGGENATRA" (FORMERLY DIE GELB), THE GUITARIST, IS LIKELY TO WIN EVERY KISS-SOUND-A-LIKE CONTEST. HE PLAYS SOLO UND RHYTHM GUITAR, DISTORTED AND CLEAN, COUNTRY AND WESTERN! AND LAST BUT NOT LEAST "STRAGMAN" (SUMPFPAEPSTE, FORMERLY SWELLINGS) SINGS, HUMS, SIGHS AND YODELS. HE ALSO PLAYS THE RHYTHM ORGANS AND SOMETIMES LOOSES HIMSELF IN UNBELIEVABLE IMPROVISATIONS.
