300.000 V.K. - Der Sturm - 1CD

DER STURM is a metaphysical album of techno-electronic provenance, the content of which relies on planetary, atmospheric, cosmic, interstellar communication and the journey of the radio waves, nevertheless, it contains songs such as Grozny and Exodus, which directly touch on more domestic themes (war and refugees).

300,000 B.C. is a project originally conceived in 1982 as a more experimental offshoot of the music section Laibach Kunst, defined in the founding manifesto of Laibach (points 10 of the Convention) as a retrospective futuristic negative utopia. The original members and founders of the project were Dejan Knez and Tomaž Hostnik, later Iztok Turk and Peter Mlakar joined this 'subgroup', and the first album - 'Peter Paracelsus' - was released only in 1994 for Nika + Ropot Records .

In terms of authorship, DER STURM is a solo project formally signed by Baron Reichenbach, A.D. Knez and Elk Eber. It is one and the same person, but mental split and multiplied. Dejan Knez, who is also the co-founder of Laibach, was struck by lightning in 1987 and experienced a kind of cosmic enlightenment, but the result was also a deepening bipolar disorder, which caused personality stratification and occasional manic depression. His cooperation with the parent group Laibach therefore became rather disturbed and limited after 1987, and after 2006 it was practically completely interrupted, or he remained a member of the group only still in a symbolic sense, but during this time he devoted himself more to work on projectiles 300,000 B.K.
