Viva la Electronica meets Lars Wickinger (040 Rec / Gastspiel)
In This Show Viva la Electronica host Bob Morane meets Lars Wickinger he is a a real guitarrero, who knows how to rock. Starting at the
tender age of 14 he played his way through various grunge and hardcore bands until approaching the devices responsible for his current sound via new wave and synthie pop.
After moving to Hannover in the 90s, the guy from Braunschweig plunged into first contact with techno-musicians. That was also when he learned how to pronounce terms like midi sequencer, Atari and Cubase – formerly totally strange to him. Lars acquired his first electronic equipment and ever since he’s been fumbling around with electronic sounds beside his band activities.
His move to Berlin brought up the plan to make music all day long. He rented a first real studio on the former GDR-national radio broadcast premises in Nalepastrasse, where he worked with Danyell aka. Teleman. Next project was a team of two with a girl at the mic named “Vanilla Krepp”. One can listen to it on Freizeitglauben03 and the second “Notaufnahme”-sampler from the “Popagenten” (Radio Fritz).
Result of his encounter with the songwriter Michael Skelton from Hamburg was the HipHop-Electro-Band Citizens International in 2003 and later on the electronic duo C.I.T. With this name they had various publications at Spoiler Music, Duplikat Rec. and Monika Kruse’s minimal label Electric Avenue.
Lars can be described as an omni-present team player. Beside his own career in techno and the new album of Sonia Brex from Italy he’s dedicated to his project Schatz & Wickinger, rather focussing on minimal techno. For this project he works with the DJ Markus Schatz from Berlin, whom he got to know via their common booking agency“Friendselectric”.
This cast just released two deeply pressing releases on EK-Records and another one on Force Sense is planned in the near future. Meanwhile Lars Wickinger planted two proper bombs at Opossum Recordings and Traum Schallplatten as a solo artist.
