Waldeck @ Fabrica Vineri, 26 septembrie 2008


KlausWaldeck's musical career started in Vienna, Austria when he took 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. The three have been with each other ever since.

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. Unfortunately, however, many of them are out of print and are 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.
Tickets can be bought from bilete.ro si ticketpoint.ro or from Diverta stores (45 lei).

Here's another good track from Waldeck:


Any time I try to get through
Your phone is quiet and so are you
The consequence of mine denying (?)
Oh what I mean

We’ve been together so long
The story moved on but we did not
The love we felt
That rescues us sentiment
Of what I meant

Oh Baby come back to me
Please darling can’t you see
that I ‘m addicted to you, that I ‘m addicted to you
Oh Baby come back to me
Please darling can’t you see
that I ‘m addicted to you, that I ‘m addicted to you

We’ve been together so long
The story moved on but we did not
The love we felt
That rescues us sentiment
Of what I ment

Oh Baby come back to me
Please darling can’t you see
that I ‘m addicted to you, that I ‘m addicted to you
Oh Baby come back to me
Please darling can’t you see
that I ‘m addicted to you, that I ‘m addicted to you
