Lutz Schramm (* 1959 in Leipzig ) is a Berlin radio artist and journalist.
Life
After attending school for ten years, Schramm completed an apprenticeship as a sound engineer at GDR radio from 1975 to 1978 and worked for several years in the profession. As a sound engineer, he says he worked on the production of the GDR radio programs Voice of the GDR and Radio Berlin International . In addition, he had already put on records as a schoolboy and as an apprentice at events, so that he ultimately obtained the license to play required in the GDR in order to be able to play music in public as a state-certified record entertainer. It was through this activity that he was offered a presenter job at radio in the 1980s:
“As a studio technician, I took part in a troupe that hung up in the discotheque (...). As a technician and someone who with this discotheque had access to music that had been recorded with studio technology and that could also be broadcast, I was a welcome contact with the editorial offices - precisely because I could get them music. "
From April 1984 he became music editor of the GDR radio program Voice of the GDR and took over the moderation of the hit parade show Beatkiste . In March 1986 he switched to the East German broadcaster DT64 . As an employee of this station, he promoted the independent music scene in the GDR. There he hosted the Parocktikum program he initiated , in which he presented music from alternative bands initially once a month and later weekly. At the end of 1987 he also established the first Eastern radio format for reggae and hip-hop with his program DT64 Vibrationen .
During his time at GDR radio, Schramm also worked as a producer or pioneer for several alternative GDR groups, which are known today under the term The Other Bands . According to his own statements, he was involved in productions by the bands Die Skeptiker , AG Geige , Herr Blum, die others and Der Expander des Progress . From 1990 he also wrote as a music journalist for the magazine NMI - New Music Information and the follow-up issue NMI & Messitsch .
After DT64 was switched off, Rockradio B took over its old Parocktikum broadcast with the newly founded Ostdeutscher Rundfunk Brandenburg (ORB) . From January 1992 Schramm was jointly responsible with some old DT-64 colleagues. The broadcast was discontinued in February 1993.
From 1993 Schramm worked for the same broadcaster at Radio Fritz . From November 1993 until the end of 2001 he was in charge of the website and the multimedia topics in the program. From 1999 to 2004 he worked in the online editorial department of the ORB, since then he has been responsible for productions in the online area of the Berlin-Brandenburg broadcasting company (RBB).
Lutz Schramm runs the website parocktikum.de, on which you can find interesting facts about the program, playlists, manuscripts and numerous audio files with interviews and pieces of music from many of the so-called other bands from the years of broadcast.
