Funkstorung Release Farewell Remix Album

After over ten years of releasing music together, German experimental electronic duo Funkstörung have dissolved themselves. On their website, they mention "musical differences, personal problems," and the distance between their homes as possible explanations for the break-up, without really committing to any of them.

Neither member is dwelling in the past, though. For one thing, !K7 will release the last Funkstörung record, Appendix-- a compilation of remixes for Björk and the Raveonettes, among others-- tomorrow, January 23. Additionally, members Chris de Luca and Michael Fakesch have dates lined up throughout Europe in the coming months.

De Luca has joined forces with Phon.o for an upcoming album, Chris de Luca vs Phon.o, material from which he has included in the "Main Streamed Mix" recently posted to the new duo's website.

01 Spacek: "1st Stroke (Funkstörung remix)"
