Pouppèe Fabrikk (S) - homepage
Bio
In 1987, Leif Holm (drums, samples & programming) and his buddy Henrik Stahl (vocals) founded the band POUPPÉE FABRIKK. Some new members joined the band – Magnus Hellquist (synth), Henrik N. Björkk (percussion), Peter Sunström (drums) – but only Leif Holm and N. Björkk (vocals, lyrics) still were part of the band in 1989.
The two know each other already since childhood when they practically lived next door to each other in Karlskoga (near Örebro/Sweden). They also had in common their preference for synth bands such as DAF, DIE KRUPPS and NITZER EBB, whose music was characterized by impulsive repetitive synth bass sequences.
This was common ground for the idea to autonomously make electronic music under the name of POUPPÉE FABRIKK. POUPPÉE FABRIKK is a French/Norwegian combination of words and has no deeper meaning. Read more of Pouppèe Fabrikk's biography

Recoil (UK) - homepage
Bio
Recoil is a musical project created by former Depeche Mode member Alan Wilder. Essentially a solo venture, Recoil began when Wilder was still in Depeche Mode as an outlet for his experimental, less pop-oriented compositions. Once he announced his departure from the group in 1995, Recoil was transformed from a small side-project into Wilder's primary musical enterprise.
With him on stage is Paul Kendall. Paul has worked with many of the artists at Mute records, like Depeche Mode and Nitzer Ebb.

Unitary (S) - homepage
Unitary is Johan Hanssons way of expressing '... a longing with endurance and the dreams of imaginary bliss in an age of conformity' as he express it himself. This is a one man show inspired by all kinds of sounds or noices. The lyrical concepts come from own experience, from passions and from a thirst to understand
He released his debut album "Second to none" in 2003 and this year's album "Safe from harm" is chosen as album of the month by the German webpage http://elektrauma.de and well worth a listen. The soundscape is not to assimilar to bands like Covenant.
