About I'm not a Band:

With their combination of classic violin and electronics, I’m Not A Band attracts one’s focus to the dance-floor, without leaving out the relaxing moments before or after a copious night of partying. After the debut album “Electrolin”, the EP “What We Do”, which followed last summer, and an extensive release-tour, the Berlin duo left a lasting impression tracing right across the country. Now the new album is complete: “BANDBAND”. Based out of a small room of a shared flat in Berlin, Stephan Jung and Kassandra Papak created 11 songs, which connect the big city hectic with the ease and quiet of nature. Coined with live violin recordings, their electronic based arrangements which sometimes sound like French house, disco or rave, and at times even allow a few hip-hop elements to surface, the central thread never goes out of sight. And that is I’m Not A Band. Now the new album is finished and ready to be played. I’m Not A Band want to get out, play live, give their music and feelings to others, go beyond the borders they have already reached, and get to know the world. Of course, also let the world get to know them. With “BAND BAND” and the multiply celebrated live performances, already taking them to places like Milan, Warsaw, and London, the success is hands on.

It's their artist name "I'm not a Band" that reveals that this combo is something special and likes to break conventions. Stephan J. founder and musical brain behind the band soon learned is affinity to the violin and classical music. His residence in musical and cultural strongholds London and Berlin influenced him to found this project of danceable and electronic clubsound underlining the essential and mood directing elements: the violins and the vocals. This combination is what creates the blend of sometimes gloomy and dramatic, yet playful and frisky and all through thrilling sound of "I'm not a Band". In a manner that is typical for electronic music most of their songs lead into explosive outbursts and catchy verses, yet never losing the reference to sophisticated music. Since 2010 Kassandra P. perfects the unique concept with her outstanding vocals and a second violin. After shows allover Germany, Poland, Switzerland and even Great Britain "I'm not a Band" ups the ante with their first full lenght album "Electrolin" and a professional video to "Crazy". .. .. .. ..This is what the media say:.. .. .. .. This blend of electronig beats, explosive sounds and classical instruments makes it an impressive and smart style, both suitable for the club and the living room. Very recommendable! (Bandbase.de) .. Very creative, interesting and simply great (fancysounds.com) .. These german duo are simply amazing (trashbagkids.com) .. they remind me of Crystal Castles.
