Legend (noun) - somebody famous admired for a skill or talent
The story begins around 1990 in Vienna when two guys become friendly, smoke some weed & decide to make music! The rest as they say is History.
Kruder & Dorfmeister’s (K & D) self financed, produced & released debut – “G-Stoned EP” was expected (happily) by the duo to sell around 1000 copies but has landed up in the hands of well over 100 000 buying customers and this was just the start of what was to come. A mixed Dj compilation for K7’s DJ Kicks series followed. A seamless selection of beats encompassing many styles of music that would define the genre of “Trip Hop” established K & D’s worldwide reputation, particularly amongst fellow artists who desired the don’s style & sound infused with their own.
The next few years were spent fielding & completing requests from musicians to remix their music. Diverse artists like Roni Size, Depeche Mode, Madonna & Bone Thugs & Harmony (to name but a few) all clambered to get K & D to twist & redefine their music. This eventually resulted in the 1998 release of a collection of these remixes. “Kruder & Dorfmeister: The K& D sessions” has become a classic, Austria’s biggest export since Arnie and an absolute lifestyle item for anyone who has ever returned home from a night of clubbing & partying. Quoted as being the “Hotel California” of our generation everyone has it at home.
Countless remixes, touring the world as Dj’s & live musicians have followed as well as two major side projects: Peter Kruder as “Peace Orchestra” & Richard Dorfmeister as one half of “Tosca”. Tosca have released 9 albums and have appeared on hundreds of compilations (look through your collection)
