The publications of the project are no suitable commercial successes chart usually, but have in the field of alternative electronic music a big impact. So T.Raumschmiere was also rezipiert far beyond the genre 's borders, such as the Goethe Institute and the New York Times.
History
Prior to founding T.Raumschmiere and Shitkatapult Marco Haas had already played in the hardcore punk band wrath drums to more electronic publications came there but only in the late 1990s. 1997 was called Haas after the short story The Dream Dope ( The Dream Cops ) by William S. Burroughs " T.Raumschmiere ": " The I happened to have just read when I was looking for a project name. So I have set the point between T and R, so it looks like a name. "
The first publications appeared in 1997 on the Cozmick Suckerz compilations and Stormbow EP, which were also the first releases of Shitkatapult labels. Stormbow itself was still a rock -oriented band project, while the compilation posts are electronic music. Followed in 1999 with current loops, the first EP, which was released on Shitkatapult. In the following years T.Raumschmiere has published at least two EPs or albums every year, which were published in part on Hefty Records, transmitter, compact and Angorasteel.

Style
The music T.Raumschmieres is difficult to assign a style. The concept of Electro Punk can indeed apply quite easily, but it is even more of a vague collective term for musicians who combine punk attitude with electronic sounds. A ARTE documentation from the year 2003, T.Raumschmiere is the main representative of the "dirty electro ", a style name, which has, however, not enforced. Even the fashion term " Electroclash " is difficult to apply, although T.Raumschmiere occasionally collaborates with typical representatives of this style as Miss Kittin. Generally, however, his music is more aggressive and less pretentious than that of electroclash artists such as Fischerspooner. Haas said when asked about his musical style in the magazine de: bug: " [ I ] Novamute said from the outset that I will not make a techno album, because I will not be a techno -artist and I do not in this area will be crowded. [ ...] I 'm not sure. I can always classify as bad in drawers or categories. "
Some pieces are instrumental in T.Raumschmiere held while in others the song plays a central role. The lyrics are usually in English, even though many songs bear German names. When naming falls for one of the frequent reference to industry terminology on, such as " current loops ", " rivets bolts " or " Querstromzerspanner ", on the other hand an ironic component when choosing a name (such as " I recently visited a funeral Discount", " We Children from power station " or " Patridiot ").
