ROBERT LIPPOK: (DE)

***CANADIAN DEBUT FOR ROBERT and One of only THREE North American Appearances!

Robert Lippok is a Berlin based musician and visual artist. In 1995, he 
co-founded the group To Rococo Rot with his older brother Ronald and Stefan 
Schneider. They have released six albums to date and Robert has four solo 
releases. Warm tones and a 'soundtrack'  like feel were always evident in the 
TRR sound and Robert has kept this  alive in his solo works as well. Robert's 
sound is wonderful fusion of contemporary electronic pop and 
micro-minimalism...that can easily suit a club or a gallery setting. This is 
urban minimalist electronic pop. www.raster-noton.de/start.html

NAW (Neil Wiernik) began composing electronic music in 1988 with explorations

was a natural evolution and the results are outstanding.

dub production values" - Ken Hollings WIRE (UK) July 2005
