Life and career

Klaus Waldeck, usually known by his stage name of Waldeck, is a Viennese former copyright lawyer and electronica musician.

Klaus Waldeck's musical career began in Vienna, Austria when he started piano lessons at the age of six. When he was fifteen his music life was put on hold when he destroyed a Bechstein piano while rewiring it.

Waldeck later went to law school (though his heart was still with music). He finished law school and became a copyright lawyer. Then he heard about a case that changed his focus from law back to music. "It was during the time when George Harrison got sued for ripping off an old Motown tune," Waldeck recounts, "I realised the way forward was to work a melody until it didn't belong to anyone anymore." He eventually stopped focusing on law altogether and concentrated on music.

Soon after his decision to leave law completely he moved (along with all of his electronic music equipment) to England. While in London, he met his vocal counterparts, former Incognito singer Joy Malcolm and Brian Amos, who worked on projects such as Pressure Drop.

In 1996, Waldeck returned to Vienna, Austria, and produced the ‘Northern Lights’ EP, quickly gaining international attention through its biggest hit, ‘Aquarius’. A successful full length album, ‘Balance of The Force’, followed in 1998. Later that year, ‘Balance of the Force - Remixed’ was released.

Waldeck has produced a multitude of albums while still in Austria. Many of them are out of print and have become very scarce. The out of print albums include ‘The Night Garden Reflowered’, ‘Balance of the Force’, ‘Balance of the force Remixed’, ‘Northern lights’, and ‘This Isn't Maybe’.

In 2007, Waldeck released the highly successful ‘Ballroom Stories’ on which he's featuring for the first time his new chief-chanteuse, the well known Austrian singer zeebee.

Together with singer Valérie Sajdik, Waldeck also formed the group Saint Privat in 2002. Their first album Riviera was released in 2004.

On July 15, 2016, Waldeck's seventh album, Gran Paradiso was released under the Dope Noir label. The album features prominent collaboration with Viennese singer la Heidi.
