Immersion

There are at least 2 bands: 1) IMMERSION is an unassuming female fronted Melbourne-based four piece original rock band. Don't let their demure demeanor fool you - IMMERSION's sound is heavy and dynamic yet extremely infectious, and springs from a unique blend of big guitar sounds and driving rhythms. The development of IMMERSION's sound can be partly attributed to the influences consumed regularly in their staple rock diet, which includes big helpings of international acts such as the Foo Fighters and Tool, and lashings of local rock acts such as the Superjesus, Full Scale and Karnivool.

Since then Murat has come a long way in establishing his career as a serious player on the underground music scene globally...

Zombie Nation

Zombie Nation is a German techno and electro project of the Munich based DJ and producer Florian Senfter (aka Splank!). Until 1999 Emanuel Guenther (aka Mooner) was also involved in the project. The first Zombie Nation five track EP was released in the spring of 1999 on DJ Hell's label, International DeeJay Gigolo Records.

A licensed re-make of that song landed in high chart-positions all over the world.

Fritz Kalkbrenner

Fritz Kalkbrenner, brother of the Berlin-based <a href="http://www.last.fm/music/Paul+Kalkbrenner" class="bbcode_artist">Paul Kalkbrenner</a>, grew up in the Berlin district of Lichtenberg, which is full of projects, sadness and desolation. It’s the nineties – nothing to do but lots to fuck up. And for most of the people from that time and that corner of the world there is nothing more important than first of all: hanging around, killing time and second: music, music, music.

John & Jehn

Gallic alt-electro hipsters John & Jehn come via Poitiers, Angouleme and the suburbs of London. Their haunting, shadow-tinged melodies draw on a bevy of '60s cultural watersheds: Serge Gainsbourg, the Velvet Underground, as well as more recent influences like Gang of Four and Joy Division.
