about
In its present form ARCANA OBSCURA exists since 1990. Its musical work started more than a decade ago: Originally working in the experimental field (like, f.e. Tangerine Dream, Brian Eno, Vangelis) there has been more and more influence from the sound of the 80ies ( Kraftwerk, Cabaret Voltaire, DAF). After the last period as "BIZARRGGHHH", using various tape-recorders and old analogue sequencers, finally as ARCANA OBSCURA also computers and samplers took part in the music. The old equipment, of course, which has been collected and developed for many years, still plays an important role in ARCANA OBSCURA’s sounds. They can be described as a multiplex mixture of doomy melancholy combined by experimental soundtracks, which, depending to their atmosphere, develop from Dark-Wave to Electronic-Body-Music and even to Industrial. Beside of ARCANA OBSCURA exist the projects "GÄBHARD", a very instrumental work of the musician, and of course his industrial noise band DISASTROUS DIN. ARCANA OBSCURA also takes part in other groups: so by SONICGUM and WHITE LIGHT WHITE HEAT or together with Peter Fleschhut and Heike Schinharl as CLANDESTINE and with Angelika Meindl as PROWL (TAPESTRY) PROWL (formerly known as TAPESTRY) originally is a project of Angelika M.Meindl, who is also the founder of ArtGenossen, and Arcana Obscura: Angelika Meindl, who is famous for her choreographies of contemporary dancing, has cooperated with artists like Blixa Bargeld, the Statled Insects and Chriss Karer.
