ELECTRO WAVE
The story of the FOCKEWULF 190 starts in 1980, when singer DARIO DELL'AERE, and keyboards player VICTOR LIFE form the Diamond Dogs. At the end of the 70's Dario used to have a mime show, like the glam clichès of David Bowie, while Victor was experimenting electronic sound, ispired by Kraftwerk's music. These first-time influences of the new group, which started recording in October 1980, were album like "Reproduction" by the Human League and John Foxx's "Metamatic". The first concerts took place in 1981, at the "Taxi Club", a cult-club of Milan-Mailand that was following the tendences of London's "Blitz" and of the New Romantic trend, the one with Visage and Ultravox as godfathers. With the help of other musicians, the duo invented live shows with a strong futurist imprinting and mystic theatrality, with surprising success. In 1982 guitarist Stan After joins the band, and the first, self-produced, single comes out, "No Sex": in this occurrency the band changes its name in "Ice Eyes". Thanks to this song, that did good in the underground scene, they succeed in signing a contract with a label and so publish, alias Fockewulf 190, two electrodance singles: BODY HEAT and GITANO, that sold very well (150000 copies) overall Europe, in particular in Germany. The following tour, in summer 1984, took on stage the first Fockewulf 190 album, that, indeed, never saw the light because of personal problems that obliged singer Victor Life to left the group. Dario dell'Aere, anyway, published a solo single, "Eagles in the night", which was appreciated specially in France. The italian market trend was not ready for their musical message, so the project stopped to start again only in 1988. The reunion published a cover of Heaven 17, "The eight of the fighting", that unfortunately did not realize the expectations of success.

Victor Life : In The 90's he dedicated his time exclusively to studying esoteric stories of ancient civilisation as well as electronic experimentation in relation to using sound frequencies with the numbers of Kabala. This experience took him to write the esoteric romance "The Golden Last Metamorphosis", still unedited. In 2000 he started an artistic collaboration with "Arix studio" in Milan, owned by sound engeneer Arrigo Dubaz. The newly revived interrest for the electronic sound, took him to produce and arrange the new project of Fockewulf 190. The next album, ready to be published is called " ELECTRUM LUX " ( Autumn 2009 ) which feautures Victor Life and the singer "Dario Dell'Aere" and the lyricist "Markus Moonlite"; the new project coincides with the debut of singer Arys Noir As an album it offers a vision of Elektro-Rock with oriental atmospheres a sort of mistic approach to futurism.

Milan, March 4th 2009 - The New Single EP " Oh Oh Oh "

In the spaces of the vinyls store Victor Life, historical leader of the Milan's new wave scene Fockewulf 190, presented the new Ep 12'' after 20 years, including 4 tracks, published by Vade Retro Records.

Side A contains the new "Oh Oh Oh", a perfect electro-wave song where the beautiful voice of Dario Dell'Aere catches the rhythmic mixed by Victor Life's synth, lyrics by Markus Moonlite.
The other track is "Magic World", a version remixed by composer Maurizio Piazza.
Side B is made by "In my soul" and the new version of the 80s hit "Gitano", featuring Dea Lux on vocals.

Victor Life is the deus ex machina of the Fockewulf 190: he creates rarefied atmospheres with his synths , sounds wich penetrate our subconscious and at the same time are projected towards distant worlds.

(Giancarlo Donatini )
