SCHÖNGEIST (Germany, Munich) The Protagonist Timur Karakus is an active musician since the middle of the nineties in Munich at several underground formations and in the end from 1998 until 2002 very successful with a project called “CAMELEON”. He had several airplays at local radio stations, pressreleases and also live performances at festivals. All this without any record contract. Furthermore he also was the responsible producer of the Musicvideo “Schwarze Witwe” in 2006 of the german band “EISBRECHER” (Zyx-Music, actually at AFM) Timur is the first german tounged rocksinger whose roots are turkish based. Born and grew up in Munich/Germany the idea in 2005 was born adapting oriental influences at least with our okzident modern rockmusic style. Instantly this seems to be contrary but it was an overdue and long ago logical consistency of his generation. In his function as composer, author and co-producer he accept this unusual challenge. The result of this work is SCHÖNGEIST. The rest of the bandmembers were joining one after the other. They imidiately found themselfs at this authentic and unique philosophy of “schöngeist” and are also an essential part of the vibe this band throws out. The Mission SCHÖNGEIST is not a simple Rockband! They picture the ascend and slide of distraction! Intellectual lovewarriors perhaps! So they also like Goethe as much as the Playboy! But in principal they have the joy to live and making music!
