about

IM NAMEN DES VOLKES - a nexus of analog synthesizer craftsmanship. Matthias Schuster's venture into the world of music began in the late 1970s, marked by an insatiable curiosity for analog instrumentation. His early fascination with vintage synthesizers and drum machines laid the groundwork for a lifelong commitment to creating unique sonic landscapes.

The EP 'Welt ist Kaputt' features four tracks by IM NAMEN DES VOLKES, characterized by the raw and pure synthesizer sound of the early 80ies. Electro with an early industrial feel, in an uncompromising and very direct way, constitutes the distinctive musical aesthetic of IM NAMEN DES VOLKES.

Im Namen Des Volkes / Matthias Schuster

Matthias Schuster is as an analog architect and became a synonymous with the avant-garde ethos under the name IM NAMEN DES VOLKES. His mastery of vintage synthesizers, drum machines, and modular synthesizer systems defined the group's industrial tapestry, captivating audiences with the warmth and authenticity that analog instrumentation brings.

Matthias Schuster, the versatile musician affiliated with notable projects such as Geisterfahrer, Im Namen des Volkes, Bal Pare, and Das Institut, has substantively contributed to the music landscape since the early 1980s. His extensive studio production portfolio spans approximately 150 bands, encompassing a diverse array of artists, including luminaries such as Andreas Dorau ("Fred vom Jupiter"), Kosmonautentraum, Abwärts, Brosch, Saal II, and The Red Crayola.

Noteworthy among Schuster's achievements is his prolific involvement in crafting soundtracks for various films, with a particular mention of his work on the movie "FRAKTUS." This film featured prominent figures such as Rocko Schamoni, Jaques Palminger, and Heinz Strunk. The soundtrack exemplifies Schuster's adeptness at translating cinematic narratives into aural experiences, further contributing to his multifaceted musical repertoire.
