biography

In his hometown of Rendsburg, Norman Kolodziej gained his first musical experience with the hardcore band Loxiran , in which he was one of the guitarists.

From there, Kolodziej, a trained media technology engineer , first moved to Aachen , only to move to Hamburg a year later . There he came into contact with the local electro / indie scene and he adopted the pseudonym “Der Tante Renate”. In 2004 "Der Tante Renate" released his first EP "Schecter", which contains a total of six songs. Although Kolodziej founded the indie label Cobretti together with Dennis Becker and Jan Kaiser , the EP was released for sale under Audiolith Records . As a result, “Tante Renate” appeared at festivals such as “Fusion”, “Juicy Beats” and the “Eurosonic” festival.

After a few other projects, “Tante Renate” finally published his first album Simplex in 2007 , which was largely received positively in the specialist press. Most of the songs consist of computer-generated beats without vocals. In the same year he founded the music project Bratze together with Kevin Hamann (ClickClickDecker) . Together they released the album Kraft , followed by the EP weapon in 2008 .

In the further course Kolodziej concentrated again on his solo career. His second album Splitter was released in early 2009 . This was followed by appearances at well-known festivals such as Rocken am Brocken or “12Zehn”.

In autumn 2009 Kolodziej devoted himself again to the Bratze project, in March 2010 the second album of the project was released with correction downwards . After the last album highlight, Bratze broke up in 2014. Norman Kolodziej then moved to Leipzig and works as a sound engineer and producer in his recording studio Château Brachial.
