Nick Porsche

[About] Backspace Romance

About Nick Porsche

Nick Porsche (CH) chooses to not choose, he chooses to go where his voice and his songs carry him. His songs range from the lo-fi soul of Sorrow to the fragile folksiness of Blood and Voice, and even a good dose of vibrating reggae on "This Is What I Got" or on a risky cover of Michael Jackson's Billie Jean. Backed by a stunning quintet, fueled by his street-music roots, his shows have become a gorgeous display of versatility and grace. An orgy of sounds and melodies, an understated epic musical statement to the power of unleashed creativity.

This cover features "Ali Dada" on guitars.

Multisonic

[About] Monkey Dope

About Multisonic

Reincarnation. Recycle. Transformation. Those were the guidelines at the beginning of the project Multisonic (CH). Create new out of old. Not old as in "used" or "senescent", but as already existing material. Melted together with original sounds, new tracks are born. Having played as keyboarder in bands like Reding Street, Kapoolas, Y.O.Y, a lot of experience was accumulated. Inspired by the enormous variety of sounds and the endless possibilities of synthetic tones, Luka Corman works endlessly on his tracks until a unique song is created.

Sleepwalk

[About] Maybe

About Sleepwalk

Sleepwalk (CH) can shine through even modest and subtile shades, and a good dose of playfulness and humor. Their sound is immensly diverse and they prove with their individual take on modern music that it is possible to combine Clubsound with sophisticated songwriting: Potential club hits are combined with anthemic tracks for the perfect musical background of the apocalyptic visions. Besides the studio work another focus of Sleepwalk is a strong live presence from Europe to America.

The illeist collective

When we recorded Monkey Dope in a little wooden house in the swiss mountains in spring 2011 we didn't expect that the sounds that we were about to record were the beginning of a long-term creative process. We feel honoured and grateful to see how over the last two years our songs have inspired all kinds of artists to create short movies / video clips and - of course - remixes.

We wanna thank you all for investing your time, energy and creativity!
