Stimulator

The year was 1978 - The hands of America were glued to an Atari joystick, Olivia Newton-John became every boy's fantasy in Grease, and rock n' roll got kissed by seductive synth beats. For music, it was an era of contradiction in the best possible way. New wave, punk and disco may have had their own fervent -and very separate- followings, but they had more in common than each cared to admit. “People weren't afraid to have bad haircuts, or wear day glow or sing about ants invading," says singer/songwriter Susan Hyatt - the steamy yet strong female presence of Stimulator.

Wayne G

Wayne’s djing debut was at London's infamous Red Heart party in April 1996, performing alongside Grace Jones and for a dancefloor of 3,000. His overnight success saw him joining ranks with legendary djs working London's non-stop nightlife. Warriors at Turnmills (home of Trade) made him a resident, alongside Blu Peter and Mrs. Wood. It provided a leap into the big league and brought a huge underground following.

Karnage

There are two bands called KARNAGE.
1) Karnage is a French 80’s punk band. Their punk is rather glacial (cold-punk) and lyrics, although sometimes simplistic, are very dark and revolted. Rhythm is made either by a drummer, or by a drum machine. Karnage records its first 4 titles demo " Planète poubelle " in 1982. Then with their first and only vinyl, " Total terminus " EP in 84, they import all archetype of the anarchopunk appreciates across the channel : black and white sleeve with poster on all reverse side...

The project WIPPENBERG started in 1995 as a simple side-project, with its first release NEURODANCER on the German underground label Hyper Hype Records. OLAF DIECKMANN - a German producer and dj, who made his first steps as a teenager in the early eighties in the EBM scene - created a big and worldwide club-tune with the hymn NEURODANCER, which was f.e. licensed in UK to the genius techno label Prolekult.
