the rockformation diskokugel (rockformation mirrorball) started making music back in 1997 in salford. later on they returned to germany where they released two ciritcally acclaimed albums called “für softdrinks keine zeit” (no time for softdrinks) (apricot records, 1999) and “la bola privada” (blickpunkt pop, 2001).
with two friends, singer mathias compiled an international tribute compilation for The Fall (“Perverted by Mark E.”, Zick Zack records) in early 2004 on which the rockformation took part with “The Salford Lad”.
after playing various gigs with german punk legend DIE FEHLFARBEN, the band became friends with them and the rockformation moved back in the studio to record a series of CD-EPs for the famous german independent label ATA TAK (--> Der Plan, DAF, Andreas Dorau and others).
The EPs „Soulkommando Henning Beer“ and "Mit 70 durch die Ortschaft" have already been released. In spring 2006 "BEI LICHT BETRACHTET", the 3rd and final CD in this series, will see the light of day.
RFDK sing they sing about neighbours who look like terrorists (or was it the other way round?), artists who fight society and even god’s girlfriend, but although these topics seem rather depressing, their music is full of outrageous joy.
„the rockformation diskokugel is an ace band, a diskorockband, yeah. they bring together pop, life and the world."
gerritt bartels, taz
"they make music like (almost) no one else does. they can be recommended to fans of giorgio moroder, air oder even independet heroes felt. but apart from all these references, 'la bola privada' is the best of the last 20 years of german popmusic. zwanzig jahren deutscher popmusik. their music has a big fun-factor and their lyrics are really great."
