no nu yoerk, also known as joerg ah!, jorge manzano, giorgio antonelli, joerg a and joerg hochapfel, likes to make all sorts of music, from samantha-fox-coversongs to 1930s piano jazz to electronic noise, favourably all in the same piece.
he plays the piano and related devices quite well, but also likes to do other things like singing, misusing violins or playing a subtle countryesque western guitar.
in his spare time, no nu yoerk records moody lo-fi miniatures at home, somewhere between german 1920s schlager, monotonous electronic pop music and even an occasional barbra streisand song.
in his spare spare time, he likes to design odd and sometimes very ugly flyers and album covers for himself and his friends, some of which you can see on this page.
for twelve years now he tries to make the public raise their eyebrows with HUNGER, the group he has with xtoph rothmeier (drums, singing, trumpet, turntables, electronics), comprising everything from theatrical recitations to free-form improvisations, stuttering discopunk and accidents of all sorts. look at their homepage www.hungermuzik.de to listen and eventually even buy one of their nice, hand-crafted and very colourful CDs.
also he is leading (as mr. hochapfel) his beautifully strange jazz combo CAPRI DI ROTE QUINTETT shamelessly into the enchanted forests of improvisational confusion and his mad, multi-layered compositions. they also have a webpage with nice pictures on them: www.capridirote.de or www.bluepearlsmusic.com
in the trio BARKS there is no preconceived concept: the musicians come on stage and do whatever they want. Most of the time it's quite fantastic, even if there is serious collisions in taste sometimes. they have a CD out on the label that mr. hochapfel is sharing with his lunatic colleague mr. matthäus "angel" winnitzki: www.brenntrekords.de
NHF is a trio with drum'n'bass-style drums and two people lost in a limitless keyboard-orbit looking like a 1973-rick wakeman-setup but sounding more like freaky electronic dance(?)music. www.myspace.com/nhfnhf
also member of DER KOSMISCHE SOUVERÄN trying to play funky vintage keyboards, and of ROCKET NO. 9 (www.myspace.com/rocket9fromvenus), impersonating mr. sun ra haha
