Unfortunately we have been forced to cancel our concert in Sofia (Bulgaria) on 17th March 2011. The local promoter is not in a position to realise the planned concert and secure the costs ensuing from this. The responsibility for this lies solely with the event organiser. We regret that under these difficult circumstances we will not be able to travel to the planned event Should you have any further questions or require any details about the possible refund of tickets, please contact the local event organiser directly.

We apologize for any inconvenience.

Camouflage will play live at the 20th Wave-Gotik-Treffen in Leipzig / Germany. This year the WGT will be from 9th June 2011 until 13th June 2011.

Again this year Heiko Maile sends you a special christmas greeting. This experimental track was recorded in one day between 1992 and 1993 by Camouflage and Dan Lacksman.



Here some german background information by Heiko Maile (translation follows!!):
Während der Recording Session für "Bodega Bohemia" in Brüssel, hatten wir eigentlich einen freien Tag geplant, aber letztendlich sind wir dann doch wieder mit Dan Lacksman in seinem "Synsound Studio" gelandet. Aus einer spontanen Idee heraus, nahmen wir uns vor, einen kompletten Track an diesem einen Tag zu erarbeiten und fertig zustellen. Zu dieser Zeit waren in vielen aktuellen Dance Tracks gerade Techno-Synthi-Riffs angesagt, worüber wir uns ehrlich gesagt auch immer ein bisschen lustig gemacht haben. Das war dann auch unsere Ausgangssituation. Ein paar Sprachsamples, die dem einen oder anderen sicher aus unserem späteren "Spice Crackers" Album bekannt vorkommen werden, brachten uns auf die Idee, in dem "Songtext" auf die wichtigsten Module eines analogen Synthesizers einzugehen. So kommen VCO, Filter, Resonanz und LFO endlich mal in einem Song vor - jeweils gefolgt von einem akustischen Beispiel. Ein kleinen Spass haben wir uns dann auch noch mit der Bezeichnung "VCS 3" gemacht - das ist nämlich die Typenbezeichnung für einen der ältesten und kultigsten Synthesizer aller Zeiten, den EMS VCS 3. Mit diesem Gerät bastelten wir auch die meisten der Synthesizer Sounds für diesen Song. Die Vocoder Stimme ist durch die Bearbeitung von Marcus Stimme entstanden, übrigens mit einer nicht weniger raren Maschine - dem Sennheiser Vocoder , das "Grundgerät" des Stimmen Sounds aller alten Kraftwerk Platten.

CAMOUFLAGE wish you aMerry Christmas and a Happy New Year!
