THE HEADROOM PROJECT fuses world music with modern electronic rhythms and modern sound design, resulting in driving beats full of natural power and a variety of hypnotic movements together with shaman voices and strange instruments from all over the world.
The unique mixture of these elements creates a sound you`ve never heard before, awakes intense pictures similar to a cinematic view, leading you to new horizons of imagination.
Andreas Ecker lives in near Bonn/Germany. He is a multi-instrumentalist, playing Drums, Bass, Guitar, Piano and various electronic devices. He gained musical knowledge and experiences as a member of several bands until he started his solo career in the late 80´s.
In 1986 he reached his first international success with the EP „Perfume of Love“ as a member of the pop group „Skala“. During the 90´s, he worked alone and developed his unique electronic world music style. Using the enormous advantage of improved studio technology, the sound of the current compositions has reached such a clearness and impressive Power, that we can say: These elaborated examples of audio design signify an experience of its own.
The results of musical research are the two albums „Ciri a Doro“ (2004) and „Apa Ya“ (2005), published by Novatune records. After Novatune has been sold to a major company, THE HEADROOM PROJECT changed to MarsyMusic, an independent label which respects the freedom that any inspiration and any artistic work needs.
Hi, And there's one more thing: I'm happy to let you know that our second music video is online. Some mysterious things happen in this video and I'm curious to hear from you what you think about it.
How's it going? Hope you are well. We just put some new tracks and new versions on the page and we hope you will stop by and check them out.
We had 'Don't Curse the Sun' mastered by a guy named Bunt who has mastered many great records including some by Morrissey, the Magic Numbers, and Thom York's latest amongst others. We had the drums have been properly recorded first, and now we are going through all the tunes in the same way to finish them up.
Our other news of the moment is about Garageband.com. We are up at no.27 in the alt pop charts(no.1 in our round) and so they are going to promote us to Clear Channel radio stations across the USA. We will have a list of stations on our page within a couple of weeks!
Meanwhile we'd love to hear what you think of our final version of 'Dont Curse the Sun' and of the other 3 tunes. A couple new ones will be up in a week or so.
