Description
Stefanie Schrank is a visual artist and musician from Cologne, Germany. As a part of various, rather guitar-centered band projects, she has been prominently contributing to German underground (and sometimes overground) pop music since the early 2000s until coming into her own with 2019's solo debut "Unter der Haut eine uoberhitzte Fabrik" ("Below the skin, an overheated factory"). There might be more than a geographic proximity to Kraut & kosmische innovators - the likes of Kraftwerk, Can, Harmonia and Neu! all hailing from the same region, not to mention Cologne's eminent electronic music scene around labels such as "Kompakt" since the 1990s. On her first solo outing, she began using analogue synthesizers and vintage drum machines to assemble an original kind of pop music relying on fractured, fluid songwriting and angular, yet elegant grooves. Much critical acclaim, one global pandemic and an in-between EP later, she has quietly put together her sophomore effort FORMA
