Steinberg biography

Members : Axel Wilhelm (aka DJ Axl) and Mario Koss (aka Ludwig van Koss). Both collaborated on other projects such as Formic Acid and Shape Dance. Records company : Arcade.

The vocalist featured on Energy was called Chantal Mc Laine. Her real name is Birgit Knoll, and she is also known under the name Chantal Dupree. Born in Höchstadt a.d. Aisch, she made her first live appearances as she was fifteen years old, at karaoke shows in discotheques. At that time funk and soul were her main music styles and she often won prices and certificates for her singing. Later she joined a five-persons band, which specialized in rock music. Her music career was interrupted due to professional reasons. Then she started a new career at NF Music-Production with the producer Nick Freund. With two other members, Ulrike Freund (background) and James M. Garden (rapper), the project For Fun was established. Rapidly For Fun made a name for itself in and outside Nürnberg. Her producer Maurice Mc. Laine was then inspired to begin a new project under another name in November 1996 when he heard of the competition of the firm VARTA (music prize 1996). This was where the new song Energy (from Chantal Mc. Laine) came from, which won a place within the ten best in the final contest ' altogether 5958 demonstrations took part. Moreover Arcade distributed their own maxi-CD with video clip. Due to technical reasons of distribution Chantal Mc. Laine had to be changed to Chantal Dupree.

The other singles were released as shape CDs under the label Pikosso records. Maybe it's the same project, maybe not...
