Engelmacher

Engelmacher was originally created as a side project by Michael in 2003 in order to create something that was more "accessible" and "connected" than his previous project which was created in 1996. Michael infused his musical abilities with his knowledge and feelings towards politics in order to express his ideologies without a totalitarian approach, a fashion in which leaders tend to ignore and disregard.

The name Engelmacher was a term used for women who let small and in particular, illegitimate care children die intentionally. A dark term and a view of dark social morays, but strangely enough the perfect name for a band whose driving force is the revelation of social defects. By using Electronic Music and the phylogenic history of man's indifference for its fellow man, Engelmacher has created an effusive denunciation of said human indifference.

In January of 2007, Engelmacher released their debut album entitled "Birds of a Feather," which received critical acclaim as well as international exposure and club play.

Shortly after their debut release, Engelmacher appeared on BLC Productions' "Interbreeding IX: Kuru" compilation with an exclusive track entitled "You Will Because You Are," which also received critical acclaim.

Engelmacher continued to gain momentum as June of 2007 came around. They were selected by Alfa-Matrix to appear on the "Fxxk the Mainstream Vol.1" compilation, which spent several weeks at the #1 spot on the Deutsche Alternative Charts, with their club hit (and most well known track to date) "Carrion."

Engelmacher reluctantly called it quits on December 24th, 2010.
