艺人介绍

To Rococo Rot是一支德国柏林的三人后摇滚乐团，他们结合了电子及原声的音乐作品使他们在风格上非常接近于美国的as Tortoise，Trans Am，Rome及英国的Circle和Stereolab。BASS手Stefan Schneider（同时也是另一支类似的杜塞尔多夫乐队Kreidler的成员），Robert兄弟分别担任吉他手及鼓手。

对于To Rococo Rot成员自己来说，他们的作品很明显的是希望将学院派的经验主义与流行音乐的通俗性进行结合，这一点，不论是从乐队的名字还是乐队的作品上都可以看出来。乐队的首张作品在1996年出版，CD的封面是一张没有标题的图片（后来由Kitty Yo再版时冠名以“CD”），第二年由英国独立厂牌City Slang以更大的发行规模出版了新专辑《Veiculo》。

这个时期，被电子迷及摇滚迷同时追捧的To Rococo Rot处于这样一个状态：与Tortoise等乐队类似，他们试图扫除电子乐和摇滚乐之间的隔阂（尤其是在美国）。To Rococo Rot很明显的受到60年代Krautrock乐团Neu!，Can，and Amon Duul等的影响，对于这些乐队在对人及机械的抽象解构方面的勾略，To Rococo Rot获益匪浅。

1997年，有著名制作人David Moufang制作了乐队倍受瞩目的一张专辑《Veiculo》。

随后乐队转至Mute旗下，1999年出版了《The Amateur View 》，并与两年后出版《Music Is a Hungry Ghost 》，鼓手Ronald Lippok也由于在Tarwater乐队中的出色表现倍受好评。

To Rococo Rot is a mostly Berlin-based post-rock trio whose combination of electronic and acoustic elements places them in close proximity to American groups such as Tortoise, Trans Am, and Rome, as well as European artists Circle, Stereolab, and Fridge. Composed of bassist Stefan Schneider (also of similar-sounding Dusseldorf group Kreidler) and brothers Robert (guitar, electronics) and Ronald Lippok (drums, effects), To Rococo Rot were originally among a new breed of German electronic experimentalists working more often within the context of hauptkunst digital art and multimedia installation (prior to meeting Schneider the Lippoks were behind a project of this sort called Ornament und Verbrechen). With TRR, however, the group have described their work as an overt attempt to reconnect the art-school proclivities of musical experimentalism with the accessibility and use-value of pop, a goal clearly evident both in their name and their recorded output to date. The groups debut arrived in 1996 in the form of an untitled picture disc (subsequently reissued on CD by Kitty Yo), with the more widely distributed Veiculo (released by UK indie City Slang) appearing the following year. Embraced by rock and electronica audiences alike, the group have (like Tortoise et al) already begun to play an important, transitional role in eroding some of the barriers that have typically separated the two (particularly in the U.S.). Working long, hypnotic grooves augmented by bizarre, often subtly interwoven electronics and sample sequences, TRR also owe a clear debt to 60s Krautrock groups such as Neu!, Can, and Amon Duul, among others, and in some respects are reorienting the abstract deconstructions of man/machine those groups first sketched. In 1997, the group recorded an albums worth of material with producer David Moufang (Deep Space Network, Source Records). Following a move to Mute Records, the band released The Amateur View in 1999, Music Is a Hungry Ghost in 2001, and Hotel Morgen in 2004. Ronald Lippok has also gained praise for his work in Tarwater.
