The Weathermen

from Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

The Weathermen was a Belgian music project founded in 1985 by producer Jean-Marc Lederman (Kid Montana) and singer and multimedia artist Bruce Geduldig, a member of the California band Tuxedomoon , which resided in Brussels during the 1980s . The Weathermen played music between new wave, electro-pop and funk music. Some of her pieces, including (Let Them Come to) Berlin , are attributed to the EBM .

background

The band was traded as an American newcomer for marketing reasons , although only Bruce Geduldig - born in Sacramento - had American roots. Her biggest hit was Poison , a funk music-influenced hip-hop piece released in 1987 , which was remixed in 1988 by Michael Münzing and Luca Anzilotti ( OFF , 16 BIT ) and rose to the German single charts .

Bruce Geduldig died in March 2016 at the age of 63 of complications from liver disease.

    “The Weathermen, as their previous works also showed, are less to be assigned to the EBM circle, but rather their tradition results from the US New Wave à la Devo, Talking Heads and Wall of Voodoo."
