De-Phazz - Low Budget Hotel

Details

Description

De-Phazz was founded by Pit Baumgartner as an "open-band-concept" in 1997. The band was formed by the musicians who participated in the Detunized Gravity album: Karl Frierson, Barbara Lahr and Otto Engelhard.
After the release of the second album "Godsdog", Pit Baumgartner said at this time: "As regards the members of the second album, there has been a marked change from our first projects. With the help of Pat Appleton we produced two "shrill pop songs", and more of a melancholy ballad, which obviously differ from the present TripHop style of the band.
Personally I like this development, because I feel my musical roots have taken shape in these pop songs of the 50ies and 60ies (or am I mixing up my musical roots with my psychosis)?
What I like most about GODSDOG is the fact that we are not repeating what we have done in the past - you could say copying ourselves - yet still keeping our identity".
De-Phazz is known to be an "open project". Therefore, one should also mention Gospel singer Charity D.Sanders. She is mainly on tour with her choir, however whenshe is involved she brings the religious or rather mystical elements to De-Phazz".
