Sankt Otten

The year 1999 marks the start of Sankt Otten's musical journey, starting in Osnabrück, Germany. Stephan Otten turned the knobs and Carsten Sandkämper sang. German vocals met Slow-Mo Pop sounds. The acoustic Film Noir for beginners and advanced students of melancholy. In the meanwhile, the vocals have been banned. ‘Instrumental’ is the mantra. But the modus operandi remains unchanged. The neverending clash between Electronics and handmade music. Postrock without Rock, Ambient meets Electronic Krautrock. The holy alliance with the virtual sound surface. Menacing but not mean. The silence before the storm and the silence afterwards. http://www.denovali.com/sanktotten/ Current line-up : Stephan Otten : Drums, Programming, Keys Oliver Klemm : Guitar, Keys Releases : Stille Tage im Klischee [ 1999 / EP 12' ' / Eleganz ] Eine kleine Traurigkeit [ 2000 / CD Album / Eleganz, 2008 Re-Release / Hidden Shoal ] Split 7'' mit Unstern Bedroht [ 2003 / 7'' EP / Self Released ] Zuhause fühle ich mich wie ein Tourist [ 2003 / CDr / Remixe / Retina Scan] Wir können ja Freunde bleiben [ 2006 / Album / Hidden Shoal ] Wunden gibt es immer wieder [ 2007 / Hidden Shoal / 2009 Vinyl BluNoise ] Tiefgang [ 2008 / EP / Hidden Shoal ] Morgen wieder lustig [ 2009 / Album / Hidden Shoal / 2010 Denovali ] Sankt Otten / Majeure [ 2010 / Split Album / Denovali ] Gottes Synthesizer [ 2011 / Album / Denovali ] Sänger und Sünder [ 2011 / Download EP / Denovali] Sequencer Liebe [ 2012 / Album / Denovali] Read more on Last.fm.
